Llumar Window Film Saves Energy and Your Furniture
Timothy Dahl for Charles & Hudson
We love the natural light in our home, but with it comes undesirable heat and UV rays. We recently had LLumar residential window film installed and the difference is astounding. Here’s why.
We’ve never liked drapes and window coverings as they can look dated and gather dust and dirt. While they block the heat and light, and provide privacy, we’ve been seeking an alternative. After having LLumar window film installed we agree that it’s the best way to help block UV rays and heat from entering your home. It works just like tint for your car, maybe even better.
Our west-facing front window is the largest window in our home and provides plenty of natural light throughout the day but it has drawbacks. While we love having our couch next to the window it gets uncomfortably warm in the afternoon from the heat transfer. We don’t have air-conditioning since we live somewhat close to the beach in West LA. We run fans and open windows but it can get HOT and the glare can make it difficult to see our screens. Since the couch is next to the window we know it’s only a matter of time before it shows signs of fading. Since we already enjoy the beach, we want to avoid catching any extra sun on our skin.
