TintWorks Partners With CW Wraps for Larry H. Miller Toyota

by webmaster

July 17, 2018

Partnering with other local businesses throughout the Coeur d’Alene & Spokane area is a common occurrence at our shop. A community network that continues to grow allows us to recommend the best options for customers completing their homes or businesses as well as share information on the benefits of window film for a wide variety of projects. Which is how we ended up partnering with CW Wraps for our most recent job! We want to extend our gratitude to Sam Carlino, CEO of CW Wraps for recommending TintWorks Commercial & Residential Window Tinting to the staff at Larry H. Miller Downtown Toyota. Through this partnership, we were able to provide a solution which will not only stop glare but also dramatically increase the energy efficiency of their building.

If you’ve had the chance to visit the new Larry H. Miller Downtown Toyota location, you’ll know exactly why they called us. Like many buildings with that much glass on their storefront they initially went with the clear choice of blinds. While blinds may help reduce visible light and glare, they don’t stop the rising indoor temperatures that inevitably lead to expensive summer energy bills from cranking up the AC. They also will not block UV rays or reduce fading of your flooring, fabric or other belongings.

This why we installed DR-15, a dual-reflective film technology that pairs a reflective outside-facing layer with a subtler inside-facing layer. The film’s dual-sided technology allows it to provide significant solar control while maintaining outside views after dark. It also blocks 99% of the sun’s undesirable UV rays, keeps all areas feeling cool, and saving energy by stabilizing temperatures, reducing the need to rely on other indoor cooling systems.

While installing blinds seems like an obvious no-brainer for this specific project the right window treatment can solve the main problem many don’t realize is that of actually capturing the radiant solar heat generally absorbed in glass and expelling it from the room. In addition to blocking UV rays, our LLumar window film rejects up to 85% of the sun’s heat, eliminating hot spots and heat gain while reducing glare. Our window tint will also increase privacy and security as people can’t easily see the film which will reinforce and hold the glass in place in the event of it breaking by force.

The application process is simple, the tint is applied to the inside of the windows, and it is entirely maintenance free, clean it as you would any other window. Our staff’s primary goal at TintWorks is never about the sale but more educating our clients to help them make the right choice for their unique situations to help protect their assets from harmful UV damage while improving energy efficiency.

We take pride in helping our clients find the right product to fit their needs at an affordable price whether your primary concern is form or function. Our dedication to solving problems unique to each situation is why we have been in business for 30+ years becoming a favorite go-to source for window treatments and solar window film in the pacific northwest. Not only are our films more affordable than other treatments, but they can also be decorative, are more easily cleaned and are far more effective than blinds or drapes in cooling and protecting from the sun’s harmful rays.

TintWorks Provides UV Protection for the Historic Avery Depot

by webmaster

July 14, 2018

This week TintWorks, Inc. visited the Avery Museum Complex South of Coeur d’Alene. The complex is focused around a former Milwaukee Road (Chicago, Milwaukee, St. Paul and Pacific Railway) depot which was in operation from 1909-1974. The depot is included in the National Register of Historic Places due to its use as an evacuation site during the Great Fire of 1910.

The complex was originally built by Milwaukee Rail as part of its Pacific Extension into the Northwest from Chicago. In its prime, the railway boasted the fasted route to the coast due to its use of electric engines and direct nature of the rail line through the Bitterroots which was accomplished through the use of multiple tunnels and trestles. In the early 1900’s this feat of engineering was completed by multiple teams of railway workers and 14.7 miles can be taken in today on the Route of the Hiawatha trail.

During its time in operation, the Avery Depot functioned as a division point of the transcontinental railway and a rest stop for passengers. When the Milwaukee Railroad went bankrupt in the 1980s the depot was sold to the town of Avery for use as a community center. The building now houses a museum, the city’s post office and library, a meeting room in what used to be “The Beanery” 24-hr cafe and the original fish pond where today’s visitors are encouraged to feed local trout species.

The reason for TintWork’s to visit this historic site was a Twin Grove railcar located next to the depot. The car was restored after being bought by the town in 2003 and now contains railway memorabilia and photos documenting the areas historic past.

When Avery Citizens became concerned with the amount of damage being caused by the sun to the historic memorabilia we made the trip along the St. Joe River to provide protection from harmful UV rays penetrating the rail cars windows. We used LLumar CTX Series. The nano-ceramic technology in this auto tint creates an oasis inside your vehicle (or train) that’s cooler reduce heat penetration by 60%, easier on the eyes, and protected from the sun’s harmful UV rays with a UV rating of 99.9%. Call us today for your project needs!

Style and protection with LLumar solar control window film.

by Joe

August 14, 2016

Situation

Red Bull bought Jaguar Racing just prior to the start of the 2005 Formula One season—a logical continuation of Red Bull’s longtime enthusiasm for motor and extreme sports. Following the change of ownership, the team’s offices were refurbished and restyled to reflect Red Bull’s official colors. Accordingly, the bulk of the building’s exterior was painted silver, and the architect wanted to continue the effect across the whole façade. So who better to call then LLumar Solar Film.

Solution

The architect asked LLumar manufacturer CPFilms to suggest a silver-effect high performance window film to cover the glazing on the façade. LLumar solar control window film R-20 SR HPR was recommended for the job. Not only would this film give the modern mirror look sought by the architect, it would also significantly reduce solar glare—another important benefit desired by the client.

Window Tinting Coeur d’ALene Idaho

TintWorks has helped many buildings with temperature fluctuations (and subsequent energy bills) are due to sunlight streaming through office windows. Too much sun and things heat up. But when the sun shifts or goes down, so does the temperature.

The U.S. Department of Energy estimates that one-third of a building’s cooling load is from solar heat gain through windows, and nearly 75% of existing windows are not energy efficient.

One easy, and cost effective way to keep the temperatures in your building as constant as possible is with LLumar energy-saving window film. TintWorks in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho offers free estimates to help with energy savings utilizing LLumar Films.

Professional energy audits estimate that buildings retrofitted with LLumar energy-saving window films can realize annual energy savings as high as 15%, with reduced carbon emissions and a payback often as low as three years. … Continue Reading Here

Window Film Lowers HVAC and Lighting Energy Use

by Joe

May 9, 2016

Does Window Film come to mind when you think about energy-savings potential? For most facilities professionals, lighting and HVAC are high on the list. Investing in energy-efficiency retrofits for both of these systems at once could break your budget (especially depending on the projects’ ROI), but that doesn’t mean you can’t do anything to improve their efficiency.

With high-performance, low-e window film, commercial building owners often experience both lighting and HVAC energy savings … and a full return on investment in less than four years. How? Because this type of low-e window film increases the insulating performance of windows, which improves energy efficiency of the building envelope.

Energy savings often start with the building envelope because it acts as a barrier between indoor and outdoor environments. It also helps manage temperature and lighting levels.

Lighting Energy Savings from Window Film
When solar heat gain and glare aren’t controlled, blinds and shades are often used to reduce fading, keep tenants comfortable, and stop glare. When closed, blinds and shades can address these issues … but they can also limit views, create a need for more artificial lighting, and prevent daylight from entering.

Despite the myth that window film makes indoor spaces dark and increases reliance on electric lighting, window film can actually decrease lighting costs. A University of Padua research team recently studied window film’s affect on lighting in MG Tower. Even though this modern Italy office tower had up-to-date HVAC systems and new windows, facilities management still struggled with occupants who were uncomfortable due to solar heat gain and glare from windows. The team found that window film installation addressed glare and discomfort; it also offered a considerable increase in useful daylight because blinds were closed less often.

How to Choose a Residential Window Tinting Solution

by Joe

May 5, 2016

Residential window tinting is an easy investment that provides long-term results. Whether to help lower monthly energy costs, provide another layer of security, obtain UV protection for your family and furnishings or reduce glare, window film products could potentially be beneficial in any residence. Before getting started on your window film renovation project, consider these recommendations to assure you find exactly what you need.

Evaluate Goals

Since each window film product has a unique benefit, you’ll need to first evaluate personal objectives and needs in order to determine what product is right for you. Once you’ve identified goals, Tint Works can help guide you through the decision process.

For consumers living in areas prone to weather-related damage, security window film might be the best option. However, window film with UV blocking technology would be a good choice for those wanting to help protect interiors from fading caused by the sun’s damaging rays.

Compare Performance Characteristics

Depending on your original goals, you’ll need to examine different performance quality. Consumers wanting to apply energy efficient window film will want to explore a spec sheet provided by the manufacturer. The higher the Visible Light Transmission (VLT), the better the efficiency. Additionally, low U-values typically yield more energy savings in colder months.

Before beginning the installation process, it is important to find a trained dealer to help you compare product performance. The more experienced the dealer, the better they can recommend suitable window film products for your home.
