Manage energy costs & improve occupant comfort with 3M Solar Window Film.
3M Solar Window Film can reduce solar heat gain and help to create a balanced environment in buildings, especially in the summer months, when the films can help to reduce the workload of cooling systems and save energy costs.
3M Solar Window Films can help you to reduce your energy costs. These costs typically represent 30% of a building's annual budget. Rising energy bills and the introduction of carbon reduction targets, have focused building owners on finding ways to reduce their bills. Within commercial and public buildings, energy costs are often driven by high HVAC costs, as it costs 3 to 4 times more to cool a building by 1 degree Celsius than to heat it.
Solar Window Film payback period
Payback will vary depending upon the amount of sunlit glass exposure, the type of solar window film, the type of glass, cost of fuel, cost of application, and other variables. However, we have seen paybacks range in the 2-5 year period, with some reported to be even less than 6 months. Speak to your nearest 3M Solar Window Film Dealer to analyse the potential energy savings in your commercial, public sector or residential property.
