3M Prestige 60 Solar Control Film in California 91101
Published:
Window Tints Everything recently completed a solar control film installation for a property located in Pasadena, CA 91101. The client was experiencing severe solar heat gain and harsh glare through seven large windows totaling 138 square feet. This excessive sunlight not only caused uncomfortable indoor temperature spikes during peak California afternoons but also raised concerns about UV-related fading on interior furnishings and flooring. To resolve these issues without sacrificing natural daylight or altering the building's exterior aesthetics, our team recommended and installed 3M Prestige 60 window film. Utilizing advanced multi-layer optical technology, 3M Prestige 60 rejects up to 97% of infrared heat and 99.9% of harmful UV rays while allowing approximately 60% of visible light to pass through seamlessly without a mirrored or dark appearance. The installation delivered an immediate improvement in indoor climate control and visual comfort. By significantly lowering solar heat transmission, the property's air conditioning system now runs more efficiently, and the occupants enjoy clear, glare-reduced views without having to close the blinds.
