Temperature Control

Year-round Comfort & Efficiency

Solar Film keeps you warm in the winter and cool in the summer. Window films regulate internal temperatures, regardless of what Mother Nature has brewing outside. By insulating your space with 3M's Thinsulate solution, you minimize your heating and cooling bills. The Department of Energy tells us that 30% of the energy used to heat and cool homes goes out the window. Let Solar Film help keep that energy in your home and money in your pocket.

Necessary Luxury

Maintaining a comfortable temperature in your home and work environment is a luxury, but it's necessary.

When the sun's searing rays beat down in the summer, find relief in your efficiently insulated interior space. A blizzard can swirl outside, but stay cozy in your home protected by Solar Film's window solutions, such as 3M™’s Thinsulate window film.

Co-Efficiency

Enjoy the sun's natural light without trapping intense summer heat in your home with 3M™ Daylight Redirecting Film. Using patented technology, 3M™ redirects sunlight entering your space up toward the ceiling to dissipate the sun's heat.

You minimize the need for artificial light by inviting more sunlight into your space, reducing energy costs. Further energy savings are realized by the decrease in heat penetration through the film.

Homeowners and building operators can expect a return on investment in as little as two months. Watch the video to learn more about 3M™ Daylight Redirecting Film.

Oh,Let the Sun Shine In

In residential applications, temperature control window film provides a large impact in sunrooms, due to the sheer number of windows present. The more exterior wall square footage that is covered in windows, the greater the effect window tinting will have on your energy bills and comfort. For each square foot of window film installed, 3M estimates that the peak cooling load decreases by 19 kwh. Solar Film installs window tint that dramatically enhances the comfort of your sun rooms while keeping the view --- or even improving it!

Verified Testimonials

“Solar Film RVA was a pleasure to deal with on our recent window and skylight project. Prompt and professional sales and installation, at a fair price. Can't ask for more than that! Highly recommended.”William Foster
“Great people who know their product inside and out. The work speaks for itself. Highly recommended.”John Hansen
“Did a great job applying 3M Film to my windows! Great service also - they answered all my questions and completed the job quickly.”Natalie Iannello
“I had them tint my house and business the same week. I used 3M with a goal of reducing heat gain as a main goal and eliminating UV as a secondary. The HVAC units at both places work less, my electric bills appear lower and perhaps most importantly both are more comfortable. At my business especially the morning sunlight heat near the windows has dropped dramatically. Each job was finished quickly & professionally with minimum disruption. I expect the tint to pay for itself in 3-4 years, while making my home and business more comfortable all the while.”John Judge
“The team arrived promptly, helped with a minor favor for me (took out second story screens), did the job seamlessly, very happy with their work.” Nancy Dalton
“I own a window cleaning business and we clean a lot of windows with film. There is a right way to install film and a wrong way. After cleaning windows that had film installed by Solar film I can tell you Solar Film does it the right way. No bubbles, no wrinkles, no under debris, no cutting corners. Solar films does it right every time. I definitely recommend Solar Film if you want your film to last and look good from the start and for a long time.” Steve Donahue
