In many buildings, temperature fluctuations (and subsequent energy bills) are due to sunlight streaming through office windows. Too much sun and things heat up. But when the sun shifts or goes down, so does the temperature.
The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that one-third of a building’s cooling load is from solar heat gain through windows, and nearly 75% of existing windows are not energy efficient.
One easy, and cost effective way to keep the temperatures in your building as constant as possible is with EcoArc Home & Office Window Tinting's energy-saving window film.
Professional energy audits estimate that buildings retrofitted with our energy-saving window films can realize annual energy savings as high as 15%, with reduced carbon emissions and a payback often as low as three years.
By reducing heat and solar energy, windows tinted by EcoArc Home & Office Window Tinting can help even out the hot and cold spots throughout your building. The result is more satisfied tenants and greater employee comfort.
It also works in attracting premium tenants who more and more are looking for “green upgrades” that can provide proven energy savings.
When comparing costs, it’s important to remember that the latest window film technology is a fraction of what you’d spend for replacement windows. And window film works to reduce the HVAC load.
The sun offers many benefits, such as increased productivity and reduced reliance on electric lighting; but the sun’s UV rays can also damage skin and building assets if they’re not controlled.
UV rays can penetrate windows in commercial buildings, homes and automobiles, exposing occupants and interior furnishings to an invisible danger. UV rays can fade furniture, wall coverings, artwork, fabric,flooring and window merchandise displays. UVA rays are also linked to skin cancer. This exposure is cumulative, so the total damage an occupant receives is directly related to how often they’re exposed to UV rays.
EcoArc Home & Office Window Tinting's solar control window film is one of the easiest ways to mitigate UV damage. It can block more than 99% of harmful UV Rays while offering unobstructed views, allowing natural daylight inside. Window films also reduce solar heat gain, which may lower cooling costs. Newer low-e window films offer year-round HVAC savings by helping keep radiant heat inside in the winter and outside in the summer. Window film is recommended by The Skin Cancer Foundation as part of a comprehensive skin care program.
