Chattanooga experiences about 210 days of sun per year, making it one of the sunniest of all major cities in Tennessee. While it can be glorious to feel the warmth of the sun on your skin and enjoy the beauty of these blue sky days, there is one major downfall. Sunlight can be incredibly damaging to the interior of your home and your personal health! That’s why you should consider window film for UV protection in Chattanooga! Below, we’ve discussed the benefits of UV blocking window film in detail.

 

Why Is UV Protection Important?

Sunlight definitely has its benefits. Natural light looks great in your interior. And in limited doses, sunlight can be good for your health. But, when it comes to the sun, too much of a good thing can be not so great. Prolonged exposure to sunlight can have severe consequences.

Sunlight carries UV rays that are known to damage home interiors and human health. Protecting your home from UV rays is important because it:

  • Reduces your risk of skin and eye disease
  • Is crucial for skin cancer prevention
  • Allows your immune system to stay strong
  • Keeps carpet and hardwood from fading
  • Preserves the beauty of your furniture, artwork, and décor
  • Protects light-sensitive heirlooms and books

One easy way to mitigate the effects of sun damage is to install window film with UV protection. UV blocking window film provides Chattanooga homeowners with 99.9% protection against UVA and UVB rays.

And if you’re worried about it making your home dark, don’t be. Manufacturers have come up with a special solution for that! Spectrally selective technology allows the film to focus solely on blocking UV light. In this way, it’s able to protect your home from UV rays without blocking natural light.
