SOLAR CONTROL
Rather than replacing an inefficient glazing system, consider LLumar as an effective alternative to new windows, and at a fraction of the cost.
Help conserve energy; increase occupant comfort
The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that one-third of a building’s cooling load is from solar heat gain through windows, and nearly 75% of existing windows are not energy efficient. LLumar film helps improve the performance of nearly any glazing system, reducing energy consumption and lowering carbon emissions.
Window film is a desirable solution for tenants searching for a sustainable work environment and “green upgrades” that can provide energy savings. Professional energy audits estimate that buildings retrofitted with LLumar energy-saving window film typically provides savings of 5-15%. Return on investment can often be achieved in 3-5 years.
Applying window film increases occupant comfort by helping to “even out” the hot and cold spots throughout your building. In addition to reducing the heat inside, windows treated with film allow natural light in with less glare. Leaving blinds and shades open reduces the need for lamps and overhead lighting – reducing energy costs further – while helping maintain a much desired connection with the outdoors. The result is more satisfied, comfortable and productive building occupants.
Reduce fading and UV rays
Merchandise in retail storefronts and furnishings placed near exterior building glass are vulnerable to harmful ultraviolet rays, a leading contributor to fading. Also exposed are office workers who sit next to windows all day. You can help protect products and people with LLumar solar control films that effectively block 99% of UV rays, helping to slow and reduce the sun’s damaging effects. The Skin Cancer Foundation recommends LLumar as an effective UV protectant.
Solar Control Films
Most Popular
Dual-Reflective
Dual-reflective films offer significant energy savings through lower interior reflectivity and higher exterior reflectivity.
Dual-reflective films are reflective on the exterior and less reflective on the interior, which helps provide clear day and night views. Traditionally specified on commercial buildings, dual-reflective films are also popular for residential installations in warmer locations. They are scratch-resistant, shield 99% of UV rays, and provide substantial heat rejection.
DR05
DR15
DRN25
DRN35
Reflective
Reflective films give windows a silvery, mirrored look, while providing a high level of protective benefits.
Reflective films feature reflectance on both interiors and exteriors for reduction in summer cooling costs. Providing a high level of glare and heat control, they are scratch-resistant, shield 99% of ultraviolet rays, and provide excellent heat rejection.
R15
RN07G
R20
R50
Neutral
Neutral series films reject heat and save energy with lower interior and exterior reflectivity.
Neutral films help reduce glare, provide good heat rejection and are specified where a soft, neutral appearance is desired. These films are made with sputtered technology. Neutral films are scratch-resistant and shield 99% of UV rays.
