3M™ Residential Sun Control Window Films

Here at Columbia Filters, Sun Control Films are among the most popular we install in homes and apartments, as well as commercial and retail properties throughout New Jersey and the NYC Metropolitan area. One reason is this: They reduce cooling costs in homes by up to 30%. That can be huge in any environment, but especially large homes where sunlight streams in. Sun Control Films for homes block up to 99% of harmful UV rays, reduce fade on furnishings and maintain temperature consistency from room to room. Out customers love them, and you will too.

Columbia Filters Installs Three Different 3M™ Residential Sun Control Window Film Products

Prestige Series Sun Control Uses Nano-Technology 
Clearly superior, these films are specifically designed to maintain the appearance of your home while making it more comfortable to live in. Prestige Series films allow 40% to 70% of the natural light into your home. The only thing you’ll see day or night, inside or out, is that window of yours. Solar heat comes from two sources: the visible light you see, and the infrared light you feel. Prestige Series window films use non-metallic, multi-layer optical film and nano-technology to reject up to 97% of the sun’s infrared light and reject up to 60% of the heat coming through your windows. These films also reject up to 99.9% of damaging UV rays to reduce fading of your window treatments, furnishings, carpets, and artwork too .

Ceramic Series Sun Control for Clarity and UV Blocking 
The advanced ceramic composition of these window films will maintain their color and appearance over time. The Ceramic Series films reject up to 80% of the sun’s infrared light and reject up to 59% of the heat coming through your windows. Ceramic Series films also block 99% of UV rays, significantly reducing fading of your curtains or upholstery. The Ceramic Series films will allow 30% to 50% of the natural light into your home so glare and hot spots are significantly diminished.

Night Vision Series for Better Sight Through Windows at Night
Night Vision window films help block the sun’s damaging ultra-violent rays, reduce glare and reject up to 71% of the sun’s heat. These darker shaded window films are designed to reject solar heat that is produced from visible light, while providing significant glare relief. Night Vision films allow 15% to 35% of the natural light into your rooms by day, and thanks to a low interior reflectivity, you can still enjoy the view out by night. Plus, higher exterior reflectivity means it’s harder to look into your house, providing enhanced privacy with your windows both day and night.
