We know, we know. We’re prejudiced because we actually love everything about window film. Well, almost everything. So it’s kinda difficult to pin us down to just ten things we love about it. There are so many things to love! And right now it’s Valentine’s Day, so we need to focus on what we love about it.
So much variety!
This could be one of our favorite things about window film. You can have decorative film, film that protects against breakage, or film that controls the temperature. Or a combination of all three. And those are just three of the options.
Create privacy
With so many people living so close to each other, many of our clients want to create privacy. People may be watching you while you cook dinner or lounge around in your pajamas. Do you want that? No! Of course not!
Add drama
No, not that kind of drama. The other, good kind of drama! The kind where visitors to your home or office say “How’d you do that?” Window film now comes in all sorts of patterns and colors, as well as the much-loved invisible or nearly invisible variety.
Block views
Maybe you have a sorta good view, but you’d like to block that dumpster next door. You can block part of a window with window film. We wrote about this in our last blog post: Surprising Uses for Window Film.
Insert color
Window film isn’t just clear or opaque.You can also choose colored window film. Yes, really. You can even do some form of color blocking with window film. The options are endless.
Stabilize temperature
This is one of our favorites. You can make your home feel cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter. You can even start using that one corner of your home that gets really uncomfortable from either heat or cold.

Protect furniture, flooring, and artwork
We all have that one friend with the big, beautiful windows, and the furniture that’s bleached from the sun. Don’t let that be you! You spent a lot of time and energy getting everything perfect in your home office, so take the next step and protect your furnishings against UV sun damage.
Save the birds
We wrote an entire blog post about this. There are many bird collisions, and too many birds die from these collisions. But you can protect the birds with window film. And there are more choices now than there used to be, too.
Hide the sippy cups
Do you suddenly have lots of drink containers, sippy cups, or mismatched kitchenware? You can hidr all that junk with window film on your kitchen cabinets. Or your bathroom or office cabinets, for that matter.
Delay intruders
During a burglary, every second counts. Did you know that you can strengthen your glass and make it more difficult to break? Think about your beloved jewelry, and more importantly, those you love. Aren’t they worth the extra protection?
