Protect The Hardwood Floors In Your Austin Home With Window Film

Window Tint For Hardwood Floors In Austin

Living in the Austin, under the sweltering Texas sun, you have probably heard about and even considered installing window tint on your home’s windows by now.  In this great state of ours, the sun is especially intense and you can see evidence of it all around:  the burn you get on your neck when you spend time outdoors or how about that frustrating line on your hardwood floors you see when you move the rug to clean.  So how do you stop that from happening?  You probably already know the answer--window tinting is the best way to extend the life of your hardwood floors in your Austin home.  While we won’t go deep into the science here, the basic principles are fairly straightforward and make a strong case in and of themselves for purchasing window tint to protect your home’s floors

How window film curbs the harmful effects of the sun on wood floors

1.) Window tint blocks the most damaging rays of the sun–UVA and UVB.  Not only is this good for your floors, it is important for a healthy skin regime as well since they can directly damage DNA in your cells!

2.) Window tint greatly reduces the amount of solar energy/heat that passes through your windows, by stopping it at the windows it keeps it off your hardwood floors.

3.) Window film controls the amount of visible light allowed through your windows and into your room.  While this is hardly noticeable to the naked eye, a tiny reduction can extend the life and look of your floors for years.
