6 Benefits That Come With Tinting the Windows Of Your Business

1. Control Your Indoor Air Temperature

Modern commercial design tends to incorporate massive, all-over windows to increase natural light and create a more spacious feel. The problem is that these massive windows do come with a downside.

When your building's windows are hit with direct sunlight, you're going to notice the temperature go up. Even if you're not sitting in a beam of light, you'll find that the air is getting warmer. Why does this happen?

The energy from the sun is actually transferring to the air inside of your building. In the hot summer months, you're going to have to crank the AC even higher to maintain an even, cool air temperature.



However, tinting the windows of your commercial property will reduce this effect. That means that you won't have to lose a ton of money to your energy bill every summer. If you set the indoor temperature to an even 75 degrees, it's going to stay that way.

2. Reduce the Distracting Glare

Direct sunlight doesn't just increase the heat. It also creates a glare that can be distracting and even agitating for your employees, clients, and customers. It's hard to stare at a computer screen when you've got sunlight in your eyes or make conversation with a customer when you're both being blinded!

Plus, it's not just direct sunlight that causes a glare. The sun may shift so it's no longer shining through your windows, but if it's shining on the windows of the building across the street, you're still going to have a problem. This is especially troublesome for buildings located adjacent to large bodies of water.



Tinted windows stop the glare before it gets inside, which means everyone can stay focused and happy all day long!

3. Protect Yourself from UV Rays

Down in Florida, we take sunblock seriously. We love spending time at the lake or out in the backyard, but too much sunshine can be damaging to your health.

The problem is that we tend to forget that these threats still exist even when we're indoors. That's right, certain types of UV rays can still affect the skin through the glass. Tinted windows can increase the health and safety of your employees, clients, and customers.



(Plus, your products and assets will also appreciate a break from damaging UV rays.)

4. Give Your Commercial Property an Updated Look

Is your commercial property starting to look a little bit dated? Major renovations are often more expensive than they're worth. However, an updated appearance can increase client and customer trust.

This is a difficult balance to find. On the one hand, you don't want to invest in a large scale renovation that may not show a direct return on investment. On the other hand, you don't want clients and customers to determine that your property's dated appearance is a reflection of equally dated products, services, or policies.



Tinting the windows can give your building a more modern and uniform appearance. It can hide any flaws in your window and mask some of the inner workings, giving the building the minimalistic look that is typical of 21st-century architecture. 

5. Increase Privacy

Whether your office is located on the first floor or your side by side with another commercial property, it can feel like you're highly visible to the outside world. This feeling of being watched is distracting and it may even deter some of your employees from doing their best work. (After all, not everyone performs best in front of an audience of strangers.)

Tinting the windows can make it a little more difficult for outsiders to see you--and your property. Business owners know how nerve-wracking it can be to close up shop every night with thousands of dollars with of equipment inside. High price items like computers, projectors, and other electronics are often of most concern.



Reducing the visibility of your assets can make them less of a target. We also suggest pairing window tinting with safety and security window films that reinforce your windows and make them far more impenetrable. 

6. Get a Rapid Return on Investment

We know that as a business owner, you don't make decisions unless they make good financial sense. That's why we offer unbeatable prices for window treatments that come with a rapid return on investment.

Tinting the windows will save you money on your electric bill over the summer. When your employees are more comfortable, their productivity will go up. When your building looks refreshed and remodeled, your sales will go up, too.



All in all, tinting the windows is a small price to pay for some seriously large rewards!
