Published:
Window Tints Everything recently completed a solar control film installation for a client in Pasadena, CA 91101. The project encompassed 7 architectural windows totaling 138 square feet, aimed at tackling intense afternoon heat and UV exposure without sacrificing natural daylight. The primary challenge was managing significant solar heat gain and uncomfortable glare that compromised interior comfort and posed fading risks to flooring and furnishings.

Our team recommended 3M Prestige 60 window film, an advanced multi-layer optical film engineered to reject high levels of infrared heat while preserving optimal visible light transmission. Our certified technicians completed the precision installation with flawless clarity. The client experienced an immediate temperature reduction, enhanced comfort, and 99.9% UV defense, all while retaining bright, uninterrupted views of the outdoors.
