Home Window Tinting Requests Soar During Los Angeles Heatwave
The recent Los Angeles heatwave has cause many homeowners to seek shade, in the form of home window tinting. With temperatures upwards of 108 degrees in the Valley, the recent heatwave has even been blamed for the death of 5000+ fish in Marina del Rey.
Home window tinting is a great way to keep the heat out, where it belongs. The most common request from homeowners is to have sliding glass doors tinted. Applying window film can significantly reduce the heat that comes through the glass, as well as as privacy for the homeowner. Below are some examples of sliding glass doors we recently tinted in homes throughout Los Angeles.

Window film can provide both energy savings and added privacy for homeowners
According to the EPA Energy Star Buildings Manual in the United States, approximately half of a home’s utility bills are wasted by loss of heat and heat gain through untreated windows. Clear single pane glass is tremendously ineffcient, it rejects only 15% percent of the sun’s energy causing a much higher demand for airconditioning. Untreated glass also allows for hot spots in your home rendering rooms uniinhabitable at certain times of the day. Hüper Optik Smart Window Films add a protective transparent layer of spectral selective nano-coatings that will increase the heat rejecting performance of clear glass over 500%.
