Become More Comfortable in Your Own Home
We all love natural light, but excessive sunlight can flood through untreated windows, quickly rendering those rooms unliveable. Besides the heat, one of the most annoying affects that can happen is glare, which makes reading or using your computer a chore. Fortunately, you don’t have to just block out the sun altogether to eliminate glare. There are several great ways you can reduce solar glare while allowing natural light to flood into your home.
What We Hear Most
Where glare is at its highest
01
Obstructed Views
Often times, the windows that provide us the best views also create the worst glare. We often hear from clients that the glare created by their large picture frame windows prevents them from enjoying the beautiful views.
02
Screen Time
When glare interferes with your ability to see computer and TV screens, working in your home office can be very frustrating. Modern TVs have incredible screens that increase saturation and contrast, but their glossy finish can amplify glare.
03
Reading
When glare is an issue, reading becomes difficult or impossible. Especially true on glossy magazine pages, excessive glare will strain your eyes, potentially causing health problems down the road.
Boost Your View Productivity Comfort
It can take more than one solution to glare prevention to totally reduce its effects, this is because there are more than one type of glare. Disability glare is caused by sunlight reflecting off of whatever it is you are looking at. This type of glare obscures things like text and screens because it is direct.
Discomfort glare occurs when there is brighter light to the periphery of an object that you are trying to focus on. Although you are able to focus on that object, the bright light entering your eyes from elsewhere makes focusing for long periods of time difficult, and can result in headache and eye strain.
Testimonials
Kind words from clients across Ontario.
We are extremely happy with the service we received from UWT. We run a restaurant & cooking school and the amount of heat in the dining room was unbearable. UWT installed Hüper Optik Fusion film, which reduced the heat so we no longer use curtains, even during the summer months!
We used to suffer from excessive heat and glare throughout the day at Public Works Yard. UWT installed a unique window film that provided excellent heart and glare performance, without impacting our ability to look out the windows. We are extremely happy with the results!
Thank you for your work replacing the window films in our classrooms. The original film was peeling and bubbling. We are so pleased with the way it looks! Kudos for completing this project in such a timely and professional manner was vital, and working around our schedule!
