Homeownership along the coast is a rewarding, yet sometimes stressful experience. In addition to all of the usual considerations that homeowners must tend to, you also must plan how you will protect your property from the coastal elements. Wind, rain, saltwater, flying debris, and intensified sunlight all take a toll on your property. The most vulnerable parts of your home are your windows. What measures are you taking to protect them?

Benefits of Window Films for Coastal Living

At Carolina Solar Security, we use 3M™ window films because they are made from the highest quality materials and bring quantifiable benefits to our clients. 3M™ Sun Control Window Films offer the perfect solution for your coastal home.

Control Heat

3M™ Sun Control Window Films reduce up to 78% of the heat entering your home by reflecting some of the heat back outside. The short term benefit of this solution is that you and your family enjoy an increased level of comfort. But the benefit doesn’t stop there! Less of the sun’s heat enters your home, so your air conditioning doesn’t have to work as hard to maintain a comfortable temperature. Sun Control Window Films reduce a home’s energy consumption which saves you money on energy bills.

Reduce Fading

UV rays entering your coastal home can cause fading of your floors, draperies, rugs, and furniture. Sun control window films preserve all of these items by blocking up to 99% of UV rays.

Mitigate Glare

The large windows often present in coastal home living rooms cast an annoying glare across TV and computer screens. Our window films keep the glare under control so you can comfortably view your device screens.

Maintain Clear Views

With 3M™ Sun Control Window Films, you enjoy all the aforementioned benefits without compromising the view. These virtually invisible films are made with a scratch-resistant coating to ensure a clear view.
