Window tint is a popular solution for commercial buildings to help reduce cooling costs as well as reduce glare and UV rays entering the building. With South Carolina being the 8th hottest state in the country, cooling costs are skyrocketing for homeowners in the palmetto state.

Saving costs may not be enough to switch you over to window tint, but today we’ll be discussing 5 different ways window tint benefits your home! 

 

Which Window Tint is Right for You?

 

Before we dive into the wonderful world of window tint benefits, we first have to find the right tint for you! For South Carolina homeowners, there are 3 primary tint options, each based on their own purpose. 

 

  • Solar

Solar tints’ primary purpose is to absorb and reflect 99% of UV rays from your home, as well as improving energy efficiency. Not only does this save you on cooling costs, it saves your home from those sweltering hot days!

 

  • Security

Security tint is perfect for those who are worried about burglars and thieves trying to peep into your window. Security tint doesn’t just help with burglary, it also helps prevent window shattering in storms and other severe weather events! With South Carolina being number 5 on states being hit most with hurricanes, this window tint could save your windows!

 

  • Decorative

This window tint’s function is to beautify a space, as well as add an extra layer of privacy for the home! 

Now that we’ve covered the 3 types of tint, let’s talk about the awesome benefits of using it in your home!
