Sun Protection For Your Home All Year Round

Most people think sun protection is only relevant in the summer, but protection from the sun is even more important in the winter months, not only for your skin, but for your home furnishings as well.

In the winter, the sun’s rays continue to penetrate through windows, but because of the cool air, it may not be noticeable how your home furnishings may be deteriorating from the sun’s rays. Faded draperies, rugs, carpet, paintings, and wood can all be caused by the sun’s heat. Even appliances and electronics can be damaged by the sun’s heat.

In addition, the sun directly penetrates inside your home because the sun is lower to the horizon.

Fall is the perfect time to think about sun protection for your home in preparation for the winter ahead. This year, we are all looking at conserving energy, reducing home heating costs and protecting home furnishings.

Benefits of Window Tinting
Window tinting not only protects your home furnishings from the sun’s damaging UVA and UVB rays, it also helps keep warmth inside your home for the winter. Solar window film can passively reflect and absorb up to 70% of incoming solar heat and reflect up to 99.9% of UVA and UVB rays.

Not only does window tinting prevent direct sunlight from damaging your interior furnishings, it also saves money on energy bills throughout the year.

Don't put up with damage from "natural elements" inside your home. Protect your material items, keep them in excellent shape and make them last longer. Home window tint comes in many different types; don’t be fooled by imitations.

Quick Tips to Avoid Home Furnishing Deterioration
• Consider window tinting as an optimum solution.
• Avoid placing electronics and media centers directly in front of windows.
• Clean, dust and restore hardwood floors to extend the life of the wood.
• Schedule regular cleanings and maintenance of fabrics, wood and carpeting.
