Living in Florida means enjoying beautiful sunshine year-round, but it also means battling intense heat, blinding glare, and the silent damage of UV rays. For many homeowners and business owners, standard windows simply aren’t enough to keep energy bills down and interiors comfortable.
That is why savvy Floridians are turning to the combination of 3M Prestige Series technology and the expert installation of Advanced Film Solutions.
The Science of “Invisible” Comfort
Most traditional window tints rely on dark dyes or metals to block heat. While effective, they can create a “mirrored” look, interfere with cell signals, and darken your rooms.
3M Prestige and Prestige Ultra are different. These are multilayered optical films—using nanotechnology to pack over 200 layers into a film thinner than a Post-it Note. This allows them to be spectrally selective:
Infrared heat blocking window film: The invisible infrared spectrum accounts for over 50% of total solar energy. 3M Prestige factors out up to 97% of these heat-producing rays.
Visible Light Transmission (VLT): Whether you choose a 70% or 50% light transmission, you maintain a crystal-clear view. By reducing VLT slightly, you factor out even more TSER (Total Solar Energy Rejected) and eliminate the harsh glare that makes watching TV or working on a computer difficult.
Angle-Specific Performance: Unlike other films, 3M Prestige’s performance actually increases as the sun gets higher and hotter, providing maximum protection when you need it most.
3M Prestige Ultra: Solar Control Meets Security
For those looking for an extra layer of defense, 3M Prestige Ultra combines the heat-rejection power of the Prestige series with heavy-duty security features.
In a state prone to tropical storms and high winds, this film acts as a protective shield. If your glass is struck by flying debris, the tear-resistant Infrared heat blocking window film Ultra film helps hold the shattered fragments together, protecting your family from flying glass and deterring potential intruders.
