February 5, 2010
Window tint has been tried and tested by most homeowners nowadays.While some are enjoying the benefits, others do not seem to be content with the results. This can be because of many possible reasons. First, maybe what you have is a fake or low quality window film. Another reason may be that there is something wrong with the installation. Another possible reason may be that you may have used an authentic window film and though it can provide many benefits, it may not do what you expect it to do.
This will serve as your guide to help you understand and discover the most common disbeliefs about window tint. Provided below are some of the most common and most important questions about window tints and the real answers to those questions. We will also make it clear for people to know what to expect and not to expect from their window tints. Throughout this article, you will be provided with facts.
FAQ 1: Do all kinds of window tint provide privacy?
ANS: There are window tints or window films that can guarantee your privacy. Darker tinted films are the ones that can guarantee your privacy protection. Some frosted films can also protect your privacy.But on the contrary, reflective films are not the one to choose if you are looking for full privacy protection. Reflective films can only provide privacy during the day time. When the lights are turned on inside the house, reflective films cannot give you privacy anymore. With reflective films in the night time, you may want to make use of the drapes to keep your privacy.
FAQ 2: I have installed window tints on all my glass windows. It has been almost a year but I cannot see any progress. The heat is not reduced and my bills are really swelling. What’s the probable reason why my films are not working as they should?
ANS: Many possibilities can be considered with this If you have installed it yourself, maybe there is something wrong with the installation. Now if the installation is correct, it may be because you have used a fake or substandard window film. Some stores sell films that are thinner than the quality ones, which also means less benefits guaranteed. Now if you are sure that the installation is correct and the window films used are not the substandard ones, it may be because the climate at your place is really hot, or may be you are just consuming much of your electricity in other ways (e.g. using the drier too much, constantly running the air conditioning, etc).
FAQ 3: I had a window tint installation for my glass doors and windows last week. The day after that, one of my glass windows broke. Was this because of the installation?
ANS: Some of the old school ways of window tinting can cause the cracking of glass due to the heat applied. But if it was a window film installation, it’s not really convincing that the crack was because of the installation, whether it was an expert’s installation or just done by a non-pro. This is a very sensitive topic that needs deeper investigation. The problem worsens by the time the customer will want to avail a warranty. Should he acquire it from the window tint provider or the company who have installed his glass windows? If the breakage is not because of the window film and not the fault of the window installer either, it could be because of other factors that are still yet to be discovered.
