Heat Reflecting Window Films
Enhance Your Glass, Enhance Your Environment
Glass Enhance - Heat Reflecting Window Film
We can supply and install a large range of professional heat reflecting window films to reduce solar energy entering your home and conservatory. Our line of specialist Heat Reducing Window Films are designed to reflect the heat away, stopping unwanted solar heat entering your home.
Glass Enhance have many years experience installing heat reflecting window films on all types of properties. Homeowners have become to well aware of the discomforts of the solar heat gain pouring through their windows and just like you, have now found a cost effective solution.
Heat Reduction Window Films are designed to block the suns heat, without blocking your view. Once installed, you'll be amazed at the superior optical clarity whilst still maintaining your view. The additional benefit of Heat Reflecting Window film is they can also Reduce Glare and block over 99% of UV, which is the main cause of fading.
We have a large range of heat reduction solar control window films to choose from. Our High Performance Reflective window films are the best for heat reduction of up to 80%.
We have “neutral solar films,” which range from mid reflective and tinted films, all the way up to films which are virtually clear.
These films are specifically engineered with ceramics and precious metals so that they still let in plenty of natural light but block over half of the solar heat gain.
Heat Reduction Window Film is primarily designed to reflect solar energy (heat) away, while absorbing other parts of the suns solar energy. This dramatically reduces the amount of solar energy (radiation) transmitted inside the room through the windows in your house or conservatory. Each Heat Reduction Window Film will vary on performance depending on the films specifications.
When heat transfers, it always flows from hot to cold. So when there isn’t a temperature difference, heat transfer can’t take place.
Heat Transfer
There are three types of heat transfer, conduction, convection and radiation, but for solar window film, radiation is the important method because it moves in infra-red waves.
Solar energy that enters through a window is transmitted by infra-red waves. Infra-red waves have no temperature until they strike a surface and are then converted to heat. Solar Control Films are specially designed to keep a large percentage of this from turning into heat. It does this by blocking and interrupting the transfer of this energy by simply reflecting it away.
Solar energy is made up of Visible Light, UV and Infra-red, all of which can pass easily through glazing. Solar Control Window Film will reflect and absorb this energy. You will notice after installation the amount of solar heat entering through the glass is dramatically reduced. Leaving you a comfortable, controllable environment.
