Energy Saving Window Film
In Florida, the sun coming through your windows is one of the biggest loads on your air conditioner. 3M window film rejects up to 78% of that solar heat. According to 3M, that can cut home cooling costs by up to 30%.
How window film saves energy
Solar heat that gets past the glass has to be pumped back out by your AC. Film stops much of it at the window, so the system cycles less and the house holds a steadier temperature. Your savings depend on how much sunlit glass you have, which way it faces, the film you choose and your power rates. We’ll walk through all of that during your visit.
- Up to 78% of the sun’s heat rejected
- Cooling costs reduced by up to 30% (3M figure)
- A fraction of the cost of replacing windows
- Up to 99% of UV blocked
Film options for energy savings
3M recommends its Prestige films for homeowners who want the most energy savings for the least change in how their windows look.
If your windows are dual-pane or the glass type rules out an interior film, Prestige Exterior keeps the heat off the glass from the outside.

How Engineered Group approaches energy savings
We look at the whole house: which way each window faces, the glass you have and the rooms you cool hardest. Then we put the strongest film where the sun is worst and lighter film where you want more daylight. You’re not paying for more film than you need.
