When thinking about home security many homeowners only consider alarm systems and locks as a deterrent to intruders.  However, an alarm system allows ample time for a thief to enter a home and burglarize your home before the police arrive.  Most intruders enter the home by smashing a window and entering through the window or breaking the glas in the sidelites of a door and unlocking the door. 3M's Safety & Security film helps to prevent entry through a smashed out window by holding the glass in place, making it very difficult for thief to enter your home.  Safety and Security film is clear and does not change the appearance of your glass and can be cleaned with any common cleaner and paper towels.  3M also offers a film that combines the technologies of safety and security with sun control technology to help with safety concerns, as well as uv protection and heat and fade reduction.  To see a demonstration, please view the you tube video on our website www.tint-pro.com...

If you are a commercial building owner or facilities manager you know how difficult it is to keep everyone in your building comfortable.  Not only does everyone have a different comfort level when it comes to temperature, but the building has 4 different orientations to the sun, with the sun's position changing with the seasons. Combine that with computers and office machines that radiate heat, keeping the temperature comfortable becomes a challenge.  By applying 3M's Sun Control Window Film to the interior surface of the glass Tint-Pro is able to significantly alter the solar heat gain and glare coming in through the windows without changing the aesthetics of the building.  Because the films are light and passive Tint-Pro is able to apply films of different light transmissions to one side, floor or office of the building without affecting the aesthetics of the building while at the same time addressing solar heat and glare problems.  For more information see our website www.tint-pro.com

Low E windows have been available to consumers since 1979 and are popular in colder climates because they help to reduce heat loss.   Most Low E glass will reduce ultra-violet light by 40%-60%.  The "E" stands for emissivity which is the measure of a surfaces ability to absorb or reflect far-infrared  (non-solar) radiation.  Low-E glass works by reflecting heat back to its source.  It does this by utilizing an ultra thin metallic coating located inside the air space of insulated glass. Some Low E windows have argon gas inside of the insulated glass, which acts as an additional insulator. In most cases, windows being considered for window tinting get a lot of direct sunlight along with excessive heat gain.  Low E does not address heat gain and direct sunlight which are major causes of fading and temperature imbalance in the home.  Window film eliminates 99% of ultra violet light and absorbs and reflects the heat and sunlight (solar energy) helping to preserve furnishings and keep the home comfortable as well as...

Summer is in full swing with a heat wave upon us and the heat coming through your windows is wreaking havoc on your furnishings and hvac system.  Heat contributes 25% to the cause of fading and with all the heat coming through your windows your hvac system has trouble keeping up with demand.
