S-Line Solar Film: The Perfect Solution For Glare Reduction And Overall Comfort
Client: A homeowner contacted S-Line Solar Film to discuss privacy and discomfort caused by direct sunlight entering their beautiful gable windows and bifold doors.
Location: Royal Tunbridge Wells
Project: Installation of S-Line Solarfilm
Materials Required: S-Line Residential Solar Film
The client loved being open to the world with the natural lighting that such large, modern windows and bi-folds brought to their property, but they were suffering from glaring conditions, heat ingress, and a lack of privacy, especially during warmer months.
While the gable windows and bifold doors are in demand, the architectural features are intended to allow increased penetration of natural light while retaining the view outside. However, these large glass surfaces expose one to increased UV rays, excess heat, as well as loss of privacy. The client requested a solution that would neither change the aesthetic appeal nor the functionality of their windows but enhance comfort indoors. We suggested he install S-Line Residential Solar Film! Here are the benefits that S-Line Solar Film brings you:
- Reduce heat entry through the windows and doors
- Block UV rays to prevent fading of furnishings
- Provide privacy without darkening the room
- Maintain a showroom finish on gable windows and bi-folds
S-Line Solar Film came up with a custom solution by using high-performance solar control film on its gable windows and bifold doors. This evolved film was a solution for the problems of heat, UV rays, and privacy concerns without compromising the clarity or aesthetic look of glass.
The sun film blocked up to 79% of the sun’s heat; therefore, it dramatically reduced the temperature inside the house during peak sunlight hours.
The film also halted 99% of damaging UV rays, thus preventing furniture, flooring, and artwork in the home from fading. This lengthened the life cycle of interior furnishings and even afforded the entire look of the space.
The sunblock film acted as a reflective surface, adding privacy during daylight hours but being utterly non-obstructive from within the house. This was an important feature of the bi-fold doors opening out onto a shared garden space.
The thin, nonobtrusive appearance of the solar film gave the gable windows and the bi-fold doors their modern, minimalist look and effortlessly blended with the design of the house.
The client derived all the benefits without facing any drawbacks such as excessive heat, UV exposure, or privacy issues, while the S-Line Solar Film brought comfort and style to make the home pleasant and more energy efficient!
