I’m aware that window tint blocks heat, but what if I like the heat coming through in the winter to help heat up my home?

That is a great question! In climates such as ours where we have harsh winters, we like to use a film that is a little bit lighter than we would use in climates such as Arizona or Texas. This still blocks up to 75% of the heat in the summer, but allows some of the solar heating to warm up the home in the winter. It’s the best of both worlds. Our Panorama line also has an extra layer of film that insulates the glass and is rated for the “U” factor. It is used to insulate our windows against the extreme cold weather we experience here in our state. So a “darker” film is not necessarily the best film for home use in our climate, unless your biggest concern is heat in the summer. These films are so technologically advanced now that we can find a film to fit just about any application or need.
