Commercial building owners and property managers across the greater Tampa Bay, Orlando and Sarasota region receive incredible bottom-line results with the application of Advanced Film Solutions Eastman Performance Films.
n the world of commercial property management, the goal is always a delicate balancing act: reducing operational overhead while maximizing tenant satisfaction. Between rising energy costs and the constant battle against HVAC wear-and-tear, windows are often the “weakest link” in a building’s envelope. Advanced Film Solutions provides the ultimate fix, deploying industry-leading technology from 3M and LLumar to transform your glass into a high-performance asset.
Here is why a professional film installation is the smartest upgrade you can make this year.
The glass in office, retail and residential buildings should be an asset, not a major source of discomfort or expense.
1. Slash Cooling Costs and Boost ROI
Windows are responsible for a massive percentage of a building’s heat gain. When sun streams through untreated glass, your HVAC system has to work overtime to compensate.
- The Benefit: 3M and LLumar films can reject up to 79% of solar energy.
- The Result: You’ll see an immediate drop in monthly utility bills and a significant extension of your HVAC system’s lifespan. Many commercial properties see a full return on investment (ROI) in as little as 3 to 5 years.
2. Streamline Building Aesthetics
Nothing hurts curb appeal like a “patchwork” look—where every office has different blinds, some open, some closed, and some cluttered.
- Uniform Appearance: Window film provides a sleek, uniform exterior look that hides interior clutter without sacrificing the view for those inside.
- Modernization: It’s a cost-effective way to give an older building a modern, high-end “glass curtain” facelift without the price tag of a full glazing replacement.
3. Total UV Protection
Standard glass offers very little protection against Ultraviolet (UV) rays, which are the primary culprit behind the fading of expensive interior assets.
- Stop the Fade: Our films block 99.9% of harmful UV rays.
- Asset Preservation: Protect your lobby furniture, expensive carpeting, artwork, and even the merchandise in retail spaces from sun damage and discoloration.
4. Employee Comfort & Productivity
A “hot seat” by the window is a productivity killer. Glare on computer screens and “hot spots” in corner offices lead to employee fatigue and tenant complaints.
Glare Reduction: LLumar and 3M films significantly reduce glare, making it easier for employees to work on screens throughout the day without eye strain.
Balanced Temperatures: By leveling out the temperature across the floor plan, you eliminate those uncomfortable temperature swings.
Our window films solve a wide range of glass-related problems: high energy costs, tenant complaints, hot spots, eye-irritating glare, fading of furnishings, lack of privacy, security concerns and more.
Plus, you can count on Advanced Film Solutions to exceed your expectations for both functionality and aesthetics.
Our after-market film is applied to your vision glass thereby reducing the total solar energy transmission into your offices.
