Are you wondering how to protect your home or office interior from excessive sunlight and UV radiation without sacrificing natural light? Solar control films offer the perfect solution, helping to reduce both heating and cooling costs while protecting your furniture from fading. But how do you choose the right film? Here are some tips to help you make a more informed choice.

1. Identify Your Needs The first step in selecting the right solar control film is to understand your goals and needs. Do you want to reduce heat from the sun? Is your primary goal to protect your interior from UV damage? Or are you looking to increase privacy? By identifying your needs, you can narrow down your options and focus on what truly matters.

2. Understand the Differences Between Films Solar control films come with a variety of options. Our selection includes over 200 different films with varying strengths, shades, and technical specifications, allowing you to choose a solution that perfectly fits your needs. It’s important to consider the film’s heat and UV protection capabilities, as well as its visual impact on your space. Dark films are great for reducing sunlight and heat, keeping rooms cooler and more comfortable. Reflective films add privacy by reflecting sunlight and creating a mirrored effect on the outside. Choose a film that aligns with your needs for light, heat, and visual management.

3. UV Protection Level One of the main benefits of solar control films is their ability to block harmful UV radiation, which can cause furniture, carpets, and artwork to fade. Make sure the chosen film offers a high level of UV protection, typically at least 99%.

4. Energy Efficiency Solar control films can help reduce energy costs for heating and cooling, making your home or office more energy-efficient. Since solar films vary in energy efficiency, look for films specifically designed to reduce heat transfer, helping you save on energy bills.

5. Installation Choosing and installing solar control films requires a professional approach. Research the quality and background of the installer, reviewing their references and certifications. Mirlex has 8 years of experience, numerous reference projects, and is the officially certified installer for Cover Styl and Solar Screen in Estonia.

6. Warranty and Durability Check the warranty conditions and expected lifespan of the film. A high-quality solar control film should last for years without losing its properties or appearance. A long warranty is a sign of the manufacturer’s reliability and product quality.
