Innovative Window Films, Adelaide — Home Window Tints Protect Against a Hot Adelaide Summer

Window Tints Keep Your Home Cool in a Hot Adelaide Summer

W

e all know how brutal an Adelaide summer can be. Weeks of searing hot temperatures without a break and so your home never gets a chance to cool down. At these times of the year, it can feel as though you’re running your air conditioning day and night and there is no respite.

Unfortunately, despite the many advantages to living in Adelaide (recently voted ninth on Lonely Planet’s Top Cities of the World) we also rank highly in a number of other areas—most worryingly, South Australians pay a higher percentage of their income on energy costs than any other mainland state.

And while the classic Adelaide sandstone cottage with its all-round verandah, overhanging eaves and long central hallway might have

been designed to cope with a preair conditioning world, contemporary homes are often not built in this way, and so the need for other means of protection from the heat and sun are necessary.

Window tinting can help to keep your home cooler Window tinting is a way of effectively battling the heat of an Adelaide summer and keeping your energy costs as low as possible. Glass is an extremely effective conductor of heat and so unprotected windows with sunlight pouring in are one of the reasons home interiors become so hot and don’t cool down during

extended periods of hot weather.

However, window tinting can reduce both the direct sunlight and UV rays that your windows allow in, meaning that the amount of energy required to cool down your home, and keep it cool, is significantly reduced.

Window tints effectively act as a form of insulation and so you are more able to control the temperature in your home, which has a significant impact on your home energy efficiency. In turn, this could lead to substantial reductions in your home energy costs, as well as a decrease in your household emissions, meaning that you are having less environmental impact as well.

Protect your home interior An additional bonus resulting from having the windows in your home tinted is that your furniture and household fittings are protected from the sun’s glare and so are not likely to fade as quickly. Sofas, curtains and carpets can all retain their original colours for longer if they are not always in the direct sunlight, and this is a further cost-efficiency that window tints offer the Adelaide homeowner.

Furthermore, watching TV, working on a computer or using other electronic devices becomes easier, as sunlight and glare don’t reflect off of screens to the same extent if your windows are tinted.

Enhanced privacy As well as improving the look and energy efficiency of your home, window tints will also increase your privacy while still allowing natural light into your home. And although tinting reduces the amount of direct sunlight and UV rays able to enter through your windows, it doesn’t in any way impede your ability to see out, and so you can still enjoy your view.
