Sun Control Film for Your Home

Comfort you can feel the same day

Florida sunshine is the reason many of us live here, and it’s also what overheats west-facing rooms, washes out the TV and fades the hardwood. 3M sun control film tackles all three at the glass. It rejects heat, cuts glare and screens out UV while your windows stay clear.

As a 3M Authorized Dealer, we match the film to each room and install it with our own crew.

“UV is the largest single cause of fading, and 3M films block up to 99% of it.” — 3M

Why choose sun control film for your home?

Keep the daylight. Lose the heat, glare and fading.

Shades and blinds deal with the sun by blocking the view you paid for. Film works the other way round. It filters the sun at the glass, so you can leave the windows open to the light and still have a comfortable room.

3M offers sun control film in clear, neutral and smoke shades. We’ll help you choose between more daylight and more glare control, room by room.

Did you know?

  • UV is the largest single cause of fading in the home, and it’s only one of several causes, so film reduces fading but can’t stop it entirely
  • 3M Prestige film rejects up to 97% of infrared light (measured at 900–1000 nm)

Look at the photo to see how many ways one film works in a single room.

The Benefits

Lower cooling demand. Protect your belongings. See better.

Every film we install is genuine 3M and carries 3M’s warranty.

Reduce heat & lower cooling costs

Sunlight that gets through your windows turns into heat inside the room. Film stops much of it at the glass. 3M says the best films reject up to 78% of the sun’s heat and can reduce home cooling costs by up to 30%. Your own savings depend on your windows, the film and your rates.

Problem solved: hot rooms and high power bills

Cool, comfortable bedroom

Block UV & reduce fading

Hardwood, rugs, upholstery and artwork all fade in strong sun. UV is the largest single cause, and 3M films block up to 99% of it. Fading has other causes too, so film slows it down rather than stopping it completely. Even so, it’s the most effective thing you can do short of closing the blinds.

Problem solved: sun damage to floors and furniture

Reduce glare from the sun

Glare makes screens hard to see and rooms hard to relax in. Film lowers the harsh light coming through the glass, so you can watch TV, work or read by the window without drawing the curtains.

Problem solved: hard-to-see TV and computer screens
