Most of us are familiar with car tint, or have done car tint before, but what about tint for buildings?
Houses have windows as well that allow sunlight to shine brightly inside. Are there any differences in car tint and house window tint? Why do houses need to tint?
The main objective for doing a tint comes back to the basic few. Getting protection from the sun and having privacy.
There are also some other features such as security where it is more difficult to break into.
However, for a house or a building tint, one more factor can be in play which is the energy saving capability. We will get into them one by one.
Basically by doing tint for your house windows, you will feel less hot especially during noon because windows will now have a layer of tint protection to reduce the sun’s heat entering your house.
A decent quality tint for your windows can block a good amount of sunlight especially for Malaysia’s weather.
A good tint can not only protect you from heat, it also protects your furniture and interiors from the devastating effects of Ultraviolet rays.
These could cause fading of colours and can even cause damage to your house items and furniture.
After all, the sun comes everyday and there is no avoiding it like cars, where we can choose to park under a shade or indoors.
Having a security feature for a tint allows the windows to have more resistance to break-ins.
For cars, it helps to have them and so is for your house. It is not going to create a bulletproof wall but it has more resistance before it breaks.
Sometimes, an extra couple of seconds of a thief trying to break in are enough to make a difference or could buy you enough time to trigger the authorities or neighbours for help.
Lastly, for cars, the energy saving function of tints are present, but they are sort of negligible or not as important compared to a house.
A good tint on your window can help you reduce the heat load coming from the outside, so your interior air conditioning doesn’t have to work so hard.
It saves you electricity and perhaps even allows you to install a smaller horsepower air conditioner in the first place.
In summary, most people think about cars when it comes to tinting, but tinting a building definitely has its benefits as well.
