One of the biggest benefits of having tinted windows at your office is their energy-efficient properties. With energy prices going up, our reliance on air conditioning systems during the summer can leave us with unwanted electricity bills. If you’re looking to lower your business’s energy consumption, getting your office windows tinted could help you reduce your reliance on heating and cooling in your office.
How does window tint work?
Commercial window tint helps to limit the number of UV rays entering through the window. Heat loves to travel from warm areas to cold, and as radiation heat (from the sun) is the most harmful, this heat is transferred via infrared waves. Window tint disrupts the infrared waves by reflecting them back in the opposite direction, only allowing small amounts of heat to pass through. The small amount of heat that enters is enough to help regulate the temperature of your office and ensure enough natural light emits.
Here at Andres Mobile Tinting, our window tints are available in several shades, including 5, 10, 20, 30, 50 and 70%, with 5% being the darkest shade and 70% being the lightest. Where your business is based and the amount of sunlight that enters your property will determine the best shade percentage for your office windows.
Less reliance on heating and cooling means fewer carbon emissions
Tinting your office windows is a one-off installation cost that will give you a great return on your investment, especially throughout summer. Depending on how dark your tint is, it can help reduce the amount of heat entering through your windows by as much as 84% during summer. By using less energy from your system, you can reduce your carbon emissions by up to 25% in the long term. This helps ease the strain on air conditioning systems during peak periods, which in turn helps reduce your energy costs.
