Metallic Window Film – Problem

Today’s cars come fully equipped with so many gadgets that it’s almost possible for them to drive themselves. Newer vehicles often feature complex electronics systems, such as satellite radio that provides customized entertainment and the latest traffic conditions, GPS navigation to get the driver where he wants to go when he’s lost, keyless entry systems provide safe entrance to the vehicle, remote start allows the driver to start their vehicle from a distance so by the time they get in their vehicles it may be cool or warm already, tire pressure sensors tell drivers when their tires get too low, and radar detectors designed to avoid speeding tickets.

To work properly, these devices rely on antennas that receive signals from things as far away as the heavens (satellites) or as closeby as the next parking space (a remote control for keyless entry). Sometimes those antennas are on the roof, but other times they’re in the rear window. And, that’s where the problem comes in for Metallic Window Films. When metallized films are installed over those antennas, they interfere with the signals. That means a driver may not be able to enjoy the high technological features of his vehicle.

Ceramic Window Film – Solution

Metal films provide exceptional heat rejection and are highly durable, but they cause interference with rear window electronic systems. Dyed films are non-conductive, but they don’t last as long and they don’t provide the best heat rejection. Ceramic films provide the best of both worlds. Ceramic films also offer better visibility by reducing the reflective qualities of metallized window film while increasing the visible light transmission. This gives you a lighter film with higher heat rejection. It is why Sun Shield Window Tint only uses ceramic window films, Omar Mayorga says ”Our customers are important and they always come first”. As a huge car enthusiastic Anthony Mayorga says, ” Here at Sun Shield Window Tint, We Always treat our customers car as our own”.  Make Your appointment today and allow us to show you that our service is well-worth.

Money in Your Pocket
A tax credit is more valuable than a tax deduction. Tax credits directly reduces your income tax, unlike a deduction, which reduces the amount of income subject to tax. The credit then directly increases the tax refund you receive or decreases the amount you have to pay. Homeowners can receive a 30% credit on the costs of window film, up to $1500. Installation charges do not apply.

Making it Simple
Complete 2009 version of IRS form 5695 and file 2009 Income Tax Returns by April 15, 2010. Forms will be available for downloadable at www.energystar.gov or www.irs.gov, along with a list of other available energy efficiency tax credits. Maintain copies of the dealer invoice for the window film product, separated by cost for film and installation. Installation costs are not elegible for the tax credit. You will also need a copy of the manufacturer’s certification statement which determines which products qualify based upon where you reside. Make sure you keep a copy of both for your records.

Protecting Houston from the Scorching Heat

Two Ways to Save Money
Energy efficiency can lower your federal tax bill and your monthly energy bill. Heat gained through windows makes up to 48 percent of your summer utility bill. Solar control window film reduces heat gain by 80 percent, which helps lower energy consumption and energy bills. 

Other Benefits of Window Film
In addition to money savings, window film can increase indoor comfort, reduce fading of your home furnishings, and protect your family against harmful UV rays. Window film is also energy efficient. According to the Alliance to Save Energy, energy efficiency is the quickest, cheapest, and cleanest way to extend our world’s energy supplies.

To Purchase Film
This 30% window film tax credit only applies to the cost of window film. It cannot be applied for the cost of labor to install the film.

A common misconception is that window tint is dark, and night-time driving is impossible when a car is tinted. The truth is that there are many films of any darkness available to suit your preferences. Another misconception is that the darker the tint the more heat it blocks. Thanks to new technology such as nano-ceramic, films don’t have to be dark to block a huge amount of heat. The darker the film the more light it will block. Also, unlike sunglasses that do impair your ability to drive at night, tinting film is designed to reduce glare and not impede night-time driving. State window tint laws also protect consumers against illegal tint that may put them in harm’s way during night-time driving.

Another misconception is that window tint is bonded onto the outer surface of auto glass. Window tint is applied on the inner surface which also protects the film itself from flying debris outside the car.

Once tinting film is applied to a window, the characteristics of how visible light comes into the car changes. Normal auto glass without tint reflects around 5% of visible light (known as VLR%), absorbs another 5% (known as VLA%), and transmits 90% of visible light (known as VLT%) into the car.

Depending on the type and quality of tinting film applied to a window, these percentages change dramatically. Some tint are more reflective, and others absorb more light. The number you will most commonly see is the VLT% (Visible Light Transmittance). VLT% tells you how much visible light is allowed to shine into the car, and also indirectly how dark the tint looks. There are also other factors that determine how dark the film will look, such as the color of the interior and exterior.

Tinting film doesn’t just block visible light. It also blocks harmful cancer-causing ultra-violet (UV-A and UV-B) rays as well as infra-red (IR) rays that cause heat to build up in your car; however, how effective a film is in blocking these rays depends on the type of film, the manufacturer, and the quality of installation.
