How Solar Window Film Works
Solar window film is engineered to capture or redirect targeted wavelengths of the sun’s light. The sun puts out three types of radiation or light. Visible light is the part of the light we see. Infrared radiation is the part we feel—the part of sunlight which causes heat. The final part is UV radiation, which is what causes floor, interior, and skin damage. Solar window film is built to filter out all but the visible part of the sun’s wavelengths.
