Window tints have always been popular when you looked for some more privacy or even security in a modern setting at reasonable costs. But let us admit, the already existent ones do not perform very well when it comes to blocking heat. Facts show that around $30 million is lost per year through single pane windows.
But that can change with the new styles that are coming up. Energy Film, for instance, is easy to put for any homeowner in a few easy steps and it blocks 70% of thermal solar energy in summer while ensuring that no heat is lost through the windows in winter. Again, this film blocks 97% of UV rays while allowing 77% of natural to fall in. The company also has a good conscience as it also teams up with Habitat for Humanity to provide affordable materials for the country’s housing needs.
Solar Guard is another brand that you could give a try. The films under this bran are sputter-coated with a compound containing like titanium, stainless steel, copper, gold, silver and aluminum. Apparently, the varying mixes of metals is what lends Solar Guard its unique capabilities. You can choose from a whole range of residential and commercial options.

Great! Now, get out of the McMansions and into something that yields long term payback and survivability, like Earth-Ark based home philosophies, with survival through the down-turns taken into consideration! A more “Practical” less “Disneyland” approach to a realistic American life! Remember, the “American Dream” is not your dream! it is the wild-eyed commercial propagandists wish-list of purchases, pre-packaged for you in hopes he will make a killing on your ass! Wise-up! don’t fall into his traps, don’t let that blond hair dye of his reach beyond your roots and dumb you down! Get real, and build what you need to survive a very rocky economy with the guarantee of rising taxes, oil prices and energy costs!
