Common Questions
Frequently Asked Questions
Does home window tinting really reduce energy bills?
Yes! Home window tinting can reduce cooling costs by 30% or more by blocking solar heat before it enters your home. 3M Prestige films reject up to 97% of infrared heat while maintaining natural light. Homeowners typically see payback within 3-5 years through energy savings alone.
How much does residential window tinting cost?
Residential window film typically costs $8-14 per square foot installed, depending on film type and window access. Most homes in Gilroy range from $1,500-4,000 total. We provide free in-home consultations with exact pricing based on your windows.
Can you see out of privacy window film at night?
Yes, you can see out of tinted windows at night from inside. However, daytime privacy film works differently at night—when interior lights are on and it's dark outside, people can see in. For 24/7 privacy, consider frosted, blackout, or decorative privacy films.
Does window film damage windows or void warranties?
Professional window film installation does not damage windows when properly matched to your glass type. We assess dual-pane windows before installation to ensure compatibility and prevent thermal stress. Most film manufacturers offer warranties that don't affect window warranties.
How long does residential window film last?
Quality residential window film lasts 15-25 years or more. Our 3M and LLumar films include lifetime residential warranties covering peeling, bubbling, and discoloration. Proper installation is key to longevity.
What's the best window film for heat reduction?
3M Prestige Series is the best heat rejection window film available, blocking up to 97% of infrared heat without metallic layers that interfere with signals. LLumar and SunTek films also offer excellent heat control at different price points. We bring samples to your home so you can compare.
