Q: What window film blocks the most heat?
A: Spectrally selective window films block the most heat. For example, some are able to prevent about 80% of infrared transmission.
Q: Are window films removable?

Q: Which window film is the best for winter?
A: Low-e window films are the best for winter because they’re designed to trap heat indoors by reflecting it inwards, back towards your home.
Q: Will window film reduce noise?
A: Most likely, no. You could experience moderate noise reduction, but this is really not the purpose of window film.
Q: Can window film damage windows?
As: So long as the right product is used and it’s installed correctly, you shouldn’t have to worry about damage to your windows. That’s why it’s important to hire a pro!
