Install Window Film During Your Spring Cleaning

And if you are planning on washing your windows during spring cleaning, it’s a great time to consider installing window film.

If your windows are causing any of these problems:

  • Letting in too much heat
  • Causing your electricity usage and costs to be high
  • Causing glare that makes it hard to see TV and computer screens
  • Fading your furniture, art, or wood floors
  • Letting in damaging UV rays
  • Allowing nosy neighbors or prying eyes to see inside your home

window film can help. Don’t spend another summer sweating it out uncomfortably in your own home.

And now for the first time with Concord Window Film, it’s easy to install professional-grade ceramic solar control and privacy film yourself. Our ComforTech Ceramic Series film is the same film the pros use. It is superior to any film you can purchase on amazon.com, walmart.com, or in the big box stores.
