Questions and Concerns about Window Film

 

Will window film crack my windows and burst my seals?

Approximately 1 out of every 5,000 windows will ever experience a warranty issue with Precisions Films. We have found that if the proper film is installed, the film will not sacrifice the integrity of the window. Our trained sales people know what film should be installed on certain windows as to avoid any issues.

 Would it be of benefit to install window film on Low-E glass?

Low-E windows only block a small percentage of UV and virtually no heat and glare reduction. Low-E windows in Colorado are designed to retain and not to reject heat. In the summer the windows will intensify the heat in the house. Installing window film on Low-E glass is an incredible addition to the window and the properties they already contain. The combination of the two will not only provide over 99.9% UV blockage but an incredible savings in energy cost.

Do windows lose their warranty when window film is applied?

No and yes, let us explain. Window film voids the manufacturer warranty. Many window film companies will install improper film that will damage the windows. Window manufacturers have no choice but to void the warranty. However Vista Films will replace the warranty of the windows whether it is one year or lifetime warranties. This is because they know the right film will be installed on the windows.

Will Film darken the house?

Only if that is your objective. Vista carries a variety of films depending on your specific needs. We can install a clear film to a dark film that will cut out 70% of light. If UV protection is the only concern, ALL of the films carry 99.9% UV blockage. If heat and glare is an issue we have a film for that. No matter the concern, in most cases we can solve the issue.
