Fade Control

Reduce the damaging effect of FADING!

It’s not unusual for carpets and furniture to lose color over time, especially when they’re exposed to sunlight. Sun fading, specifically, is a pesky form of oxidation that most often occurs near windows. That’s where Pacific Window Tinting comes in: we offer residential fade control options for every home, helping you protect and enhance the life of your furniture.

Color fading is so subtle that it sneaks up on you. A little fading over time each day and before you know it, the color has almost completely faded away. You sometimes won’t even notice it until you move a piece of furniture and realize how much color has faded in the sun.

This can be costly to repair. Fading is caused by a number of factors but thankfully, the damaging effects can be controlled with preemptive measures.

In order to prevent fading, we have to take a look at the cause of it. The largest single cause of fading is ultraviolet light rays from the sun. Pacific Window tinting utilizes Panorama solar film, which blocks 99% of ultraviolet rays — virtually eliminating fading damage to the interior of your home!

With a one-time purchase and installation, your home can be set for years to come. Our team of dedicated professionals will work with you to determine which method and tint level are right for your home and needs, ensuring that you get the best bang for your buck.

The Benefits Of Window Tinting

Window tinting provides a host of benefits beyond preventing and reducing color fading.

• Reduces fading in carpets and furniture
• Saves money on energy costs
• Rejects heat
• Balances out the temperature
• Reduces glare
• Improves the look and comfort of your home or office
• Adds a measure of privacy, safety, and security to your home or office
• Enhances windows views

While nothing can prevent fading entirely, Pacific Window Tinting can help keep the interior of your home looking fresh and new. Plus, modern residential films are so light in color, you’ll hardly notice they’re there! This means you can have the protection you deserve without creating an eyesore.

How To Prevent Fading

Some of the things that can be damaged by sun exposure are hardwood floors, wood cabinets, carpet, decorator rugs, upholstered furniture, paintings, photographs, draperies — even your child’s precious artwork. Fading due to UV light is almost impossible to prevent without some sort of protective film. One can attempt to block out any visible light by shutting blinds, but that comes at the expense of any natural light you might have had.

In order to prevent fading as much as possible, the best option is to invest in our fade control solutions to help protect your treasured goods from harmful UV rays. You spend a lot of time and money decorating your home, and Panorama window film can help keep that investment looking new.

As the diagram shows, fading is usually caused by several factors, often acting in conjunction with one another, including light (both visible and ultraviolet, and solar energy).
