The Benefits of Residential Window Tinting
You may be familiar with getting your vehicle’s windows tinted, but did you know you can also get the windows of your home tinted to help lower your energy bills? Turbo Tint of South Austin provides homeowners throughout Music City and beyond with residential window tinting that improves the comfort and energy efficiency of your home. Having your home’s windows tinted increases privacy, reduces energy costs, improves safety, and minimizes damage and fading from harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays. Let’s take a closer look at some of the benefits of having a technician from Turbo Tint of South Austin install residential window tint.
Cut Energy Costs
Texas is known for its hot weather and temperatures can soar during the summer, prompting many residents to spend more time indoors enjoying the comfort of their air-conditioned homes. The bigger your home is, the more likely it is to have hot spots that are harder to cool. As temperatures across the globe continue to rise, homeowners are searching for ways to combat high energy costs. Because your HVAC system or window units are working harder to cool your home efficiently, electric bills can get as much as 8% higher during the summer.Architectural tinting helps to reduce heat while letting in bright summer sunlight. It can even out hot spots in your home to help prevent your air conditioning from kicking into overdrive during the dog days of summer, decreasing energy consumption and saving you money.
Block Harmful UV Rays
UV rays are invisible to the naked eye, and despite what you may think, they’re not all bad. They help our bodies produce valuable vitamins and can elevate our mood. But with that said, prolonged exposure to UV rays is something that’s best avoided. They can cause skin and eye damage, and degrade fabric, paint, plastic, and rubber. Architectural tinting can prevent the upholstery on your furniture and wood flooring from fading by blocking up to 99% of all UV rays.Increase Privacy

Glare from sunlight shining through your windows can cause blind spots and increase the chance of injury from falling. It can also hamper your ability to see clearly when you’re trying to read, watch TV, or work remotely. When your eyes have to work harder to see, the resulting strain often causes headaches and may even trigger migraines. Residential tinting can help minimize glare and improve the comfort of your home.Increase Safety
