Does one room in your house always feel ten degrees hotter than the rest? Do you close the blinds at noon and still squint at the TV?
Solar control window film fixes that at the glass. It blocks a large share of the sun's heat and UV rays before they reach your living space. You keep your view and your daylight.
LV Tint has installed window film in Las Vegas since 1970. Here is how solar window tint works, what it can do for your home, and what to expect from installation.
Glass lets in sunlight, and sunlight carries heat. In Las Vegas, that heat arrives almost every day for months. Your air conditioner then works overtime to push it back out.
East, West, and south-facing rooms get the worst of it. Large sliding doors, big living room windows, and sunrooms add to the problem. Many valley homes also have floors, rugs, and furniture that fade in direct sun.
Blinds help a little, but they sit inside the room. The heat has already come through the glass by then. Film works on the window itself.
Solar control window film is a thin, clear or lightly shaded layer applied to the inside of your glass. It is made to reflect or absorb solar heat and block UV rays.
People also call it solar window tint or solar control window tinting. It is not the dark tint you may picture on a car. Many home films look nearly clear from the street and from inside.
Solar film is different from decorative film, which adds pattern or privacy, and from security film, which holds glass together on impact. Some films combine these jobs. We will help you pick the right one for your goal.

Here is what Las Vegas homeowners usually want from solar film:
Less heat enters, so your AC has less to fight. One of our customers shared that she was happy with her lower electric bills after her install.
Hot spots near west windows cool down and feel closer to the rest of the house.
Screens, TVs, and kitchen counters become easier to see in the afternoon.
Film helps slow the fading of hardwood, art, rugs, and furniture.
You do not replace the glass. The film goes on what you already have.
Results vary by home. Glass type, window direction, shade from trees, and your thermostat habits all play a part. We tell you what is realistic before you spend a dollar.
Solar film is not just for houses. Our team installs it across the valley in many settings:
A good example is Downtown Summerlin. A Macy's store had a stubborn afternoon glare problem and strict rules on how the glass could look. We used 3M Prestige 40, which cut glare by more than 55% while still letting 40% of natural light through. The storefront kept its look, and the glare went away.
Not every film fits every window. Ask these questions before you buy:
Ask for the film's total solar energy rejection (TSER) number from the manufacturer's spec sheet.
This is visible light transmission (VLT). A higher number means a brighter room.
Quality films block nearly all UV rays. Check the spec sheet.
Dual-pane, tempered, and low-E glass can react differently to heat. The film must be approved for your exact glass.
Look for both the film and the installation.
We install trusted brands such as 3M and Solar Gard. During your visit, we check your glass before we recommend a film, so you do not end up with a bad match.
