Solar Flim

[bedoklist]

Any1 here use the solar film for your windows. Whole year round, my kitchen facing sunrise and hall facing till sunset, very hot. Thought of pasting the solar film but not sure if it is useful in blocking the sunlight.

Every morning has to use a big cloth to cover the kitchen windows. Then come late noon, need to pull the curtain to cover the hall windows.

Thks.

try 3M prestige film, or change windows to low-e glass

if the windows are closed then solar film is effective. if you open windows then the sunlight still coming in from the open windows, then solar film will not be effective.

Buy from tabao.
It's cheap and if it doesn't work, just remove.
The same as you paste your oyama tank background.


I paste the frosted type in the kitchen.
Outside, tinted ones.
The frosted type really blocked the sun.

But bear in mind, if the sun doesn't get in using frosted solar film, you can't see what's outside too...

Kitchen and hall windows are all sliding type so is not a problem. I not sure the solar film type is totally block or just 90%.

So far any issue for you. I presume sunlight is only 10% in base on the FB photo.
