Solar Window Film

TAP is proud to distribute Llumar® solar control professional window film. Each window tint is designed to block up to 99% of UV rays and reflect the sun’s heat, while allowing a clear view outside. A proprietary scratch-resistant coating keeps the film looking new even after repeated cleanings.

Our selection of Lumar window film is not available at other retailers! This UV protection window film will never fade or bubble, keeping your home or business cool and private for years.

Why Use Reflective Window Tint

Why Use Reflective Window Tint Adding solar tint to your building windows offers many benefits. Sun control window film will reduce the cost of keeping your home cool in the summer by blocking UV rays and heat. Some films also help stop heat from escaping in the winter. This greatly reduces utility costs and puts less strain on your HVAC system.

A mirror window tint also limits sun damage to your furniture and possessions. All Llumar film blocks 99% of UV rays regardless of its heat control rating, and it offers varying degrees of glare reduction as well so you can see clearly. Depending on the reflectivity of the film, day time privacy may be provided.

By installing window tints in living rooms, bedrooms, sunrooms, garages and sheds, you will greatly improve their comfort for all seasons. These films are commercial-grade for retail stores and office buildings. No matter where you live or what you need it for, there is solar control window tinting that will keep the right amount of sun at bay.
