The Top 3 Reasons to Install Safety Film in Your Nashville Area Home This Spring
While your beautiful windows create the perfect aesthetic in your home, there’s one problem: they’re glass, and glass can shatter. Flying shards can cause injury and damage to your home, and unprotected glass is an open invitation for criminal activity.
While there are many reasons to install high-quality safety film in your Nashville Area home, our experts at Solar Insulation have compiled the top three:
1. Removing the Threat of Shattered Glass Upon Impact
You’re getting the grill ready to go while the kids play ball in the backyard, and smash! In an instant, glass shards are flying, and children get hurt.
When it comes to safety in the home, unprotected glass is an ongoing threat. Whether it’s inside or outside the house, rambunctious children can crash into windows, and objects can fly easily from their hands, causing the glass to shatter and fly.
You also need to consider severe weather. In a high-wind situation, trees can fall, and objects can be picked up and turned into projectiles that have the potential to strike a window or sliding glass door, causing injuries and extensive damage to your home.
High-quality safety film offers a sophisticated technology that eliminates the threat of glass shattering upon impact. When an object hits a pane of glass, safety film holds the glass in place, so it doesn’t fall to the floor or fly through the air. Everyone’s safe, and your home remains intact.
2. Securing Your Home from Criminal Activity
Unprotected glass is an open invitation for criminal activity. Whether it’s an intruder or a smash-and-grab criminal, a window or sliding glass door is their easiest point of access to your home.
Safety film offers a thick, protective layer that significantly slows down intruders. When an intruder strikes a pane of glass with blunt force, safety film holds the glass together making it more difficult to gain entry and more likely the intruder will choose an easier target.
When a bullet is fired, an intruder can gain entry in just seconds. While safety film won’t stop a bullet, it will hold the glass in place, slowing the shooter down so that you have time to respond, and help can arrive at the scene.
3. Protection from the Dangers of UV Radiation
Even though you’re inside, you’re still exposed to the damaging effects of the sun. UV radiation enters the home through windows and glass doors, damaging your skin and your young children’s eyes, and causing your indoor furnishings to fade.
High-quality safety film offers protection from harmful sun exposure without changing the appearance of your windows. With a beautiful aesthetic, you can enjoy the natural light and the view.
