Balancing Heat Rejection and Clarity with Advanced Solar Film Technology
Overview
n the high-rise urban landscape of Singapore, living on a higher floor often means dealing with intense afternoon heat and radiation from the sun. This was a significant concern for a homeowner who approached us, seeking a solution to reduce heat exposure while maintaining clear visibility through his windows.
Why We Did It
The focus of our solar film installation was to minimize heat during the day without compromising the clarity and unobstructed view of the outdoors. The homeowner wanted to enjoy the benefits of natural light without the discomfort of the intense heat, especially in the afternoons.
Homeowner's Concern
The primary challenge was to find a window film that could effectively reduce heat without darkening the room. Most window films that block heat tend to have a darker shade, which can obstruct the view and reduce the amount of natural light.
Our Solution
We recommended our Platinum series solar film. This product is specially designed to reject solar energy while allowing more light to enter, ensuring a clearer view of the outdoors. Additionally, considering the apartment’s high elevation, we ensured that the film provided adequate UV and infrared protection.
What We Used
Platinum P75 solar film was selected for its reliable UV and Infrared ray rejection. Other than that, it’s performance durability also outweigh many solar films in Singapore.
