For security, the film works great in conjunction with a glass breakage sensors tied in to your alarm system. When a “would be” intruder breaks the glass to gain entry, you alarm’s glass breakage sensor picks up the concussion and frequency of the breaking glass which in turn activates and sounds your security alarm. Now the alarm is sounding, your security provider has been notified, and the intruder is still outside unlike a motion detector which sounds once the intruder is already in your home.

Safety and Security Window Film for hurricane protection will help hold glass in place after a projectile hits and breaks the glass. This could save time and money in your cleanup efforts by reducing the chance of flying glass shards and water being blown in to your home or building. Texas Department of Insurance recommends that you protect large windows with storm shutters or plywood panels and to use tape on small windows. Safety and Security Window Film is not as secure as boarding up, but is much more effective than tape. Once the film is installed, it is in place and ready 365 days a year.  It does not need to be cut, stored, or installed every time there is a threat of a storm. The Safety and Security Window Film is also backed by a 3 M ™ Limited Lifetime Warranty.

Houstonians, on average, run their air conditioner for 10 months and their heater for only 2 months throughout the year. There isn’t much of a need to have your windows work as an insulator to help keep the heat in since we run our heater for such a short period of time. We should be more concerned on keeping the heat out! Everyone is trying to find a way to save money and 3M Window Film can help you save money on your utilities without having to compromise your comfort. Stay cool, protect your furniture, and save money by having Solar X install 3M Window Film on the windows of your home.
