Better Comfort, Less Heat, and Stronger UV Protection

Sunlight makes a home feel bright and open, but too much of it can cause heat, glare, and fading. In many Oregon homes, large windows and sliding glass doors allow intense sunlight to pour inside for hours each day. Sun blocking window film is designed to solve that problem without taking away your view.

At Pacific Window Tint, we have been installing high-performance window film since 1998. Our in-house team helps homeowners reduce solar heat, protect their interiors, and enjoy a more comfortable living space year-round.

What Is Sun Blocking Window Film?

Sun blocking window film is a thin, durable layer applied to the inside of your windows. It is made to block a large portion of the sun’s heat and harmful rays before they enter your home. Once installed, it works continuously to reduce:

The film becomes part of the glass, so you get protection all day without needing blinds or shades.

How Does Sun Blocking Film Improve Home Comfort?

When sunlight passes through untreated windows, it turns into heat inside your home. This can create hot rooms, uneven temperatures, and high air-conditioning use.

Sun blocking window film reflects and absorbs much of that heat before it enters your living space. That helps your home stay cooler, especially in rooms with large windows or strong afternoon sun. Many homeowners notice that their house feels more balanced and comfortable, even on warm days.

This also reduces strain on your HVAC system, which can help lower energy costs and improve long-term system performance.

How Does UV Protection Help Your Home?

The sun’s ultraviolet rays are a major cause of fading and material breakdown inside a house. Over time, they can dull hardwood floors, fade carpets, and weaken upholstery.

High-quality sun-blocking window film blocks up to 99 percent of harmful UV rays. That means your furniture, artwork, and finishes keep their color and quality much longer. This protection works every day, even when it is cloudy outside.

Keep Your View While Blocking the Sun

One of the biggest concerns homeowners have is whether window film will make their rooms too dark. Modern sun-blocking films are designed to balance protection with natural light.

You still enjoy clear views and bright spaces, but without the harsh glare and heat that come from direct sun. This makes film a great option for living rooms, kitchens, home offices, and any space where light and comfort both matter.

We used Pacific Window tinting for both a tint and a security film on two buildings. They came out and had us a quote very quickly and when we were ready to move forward they got us scheduled very quickly. The team that came out was wonderful to work with. They were very professional and cleaned up after themselves. Overall we are very happy with our experience and will use them again if needed. I highly recommend them.

For over a year we had been deciding what to do with some of our upper level windows. We get a strong sunset that can be blinding for about half of the year. We reached out to Jared and his team at Pacific Window Tinting, he provided us with several samples and assessed our need as well as our budget, he made a couple of recommendations to meet our needs. He delivered an excellent product, in a short period of time at great prices while ensuring excellent customer service. We are finally able to enjoy the beautiful sunshine while maintaining the aesthetic integrity of the architecture. Highly recommended.

Our waiting room at our clinic was much hotter than the rest of our clinic so we consulted with the owner, he gave some great suggestions and in a week or so we had the front windows and doors tinted, took a few hours, now it is much cooler! My front desk staff does not feel hot nor do patients in my waiting room. Thank you!
