Near Windshield repair or replace in Fontana, west-facing windows at low afternoon sun angles drive the highest interior temperature increases. This is especially problematic for single-family home installations, which the most common residential application; window film reduces heat gain and protects furnishings.
California's Title 24 energy code sets minimum window performance standards for new construction. Window film can bring older homes up to — and beyond — those standards at a fraction of the cost of window replacement.
The Solution
