Spend Less, Stay Cooler With Solar Window Film
A Smarter Way to Keep the Heat Out
Are you tired of spending on cooling costs during the hot summer months? Wish there was a smarter way to keep your home nice and climate-controlled all day long? You've found it!
Our solar window tinting solutions will do the job. Solar window film is a simple, cost-effective way to keep your home or office at a comfortable temperature. Better yet, it doesn't block the view you like from your windows. It's a thin, transparent layer applied right on top of your glass that reflects infrared and ultraviolet (UV) rays before they enter the room. Unlike curtains or dark tints, solar window tinting keeps your space bright and open.
Our heat-reducing window film is perfect for New Zealand conditions. It’s ultra-durable, extremely low maintenance, and effective all year round. In summer, it blocks harsh solar heat to keep your rooms cooler, reduces strain on your cooling system, and protects your furniture and artwork from fading. That’s the power of solar window tinting, a simple fix with a big impact, no matter the season.
What Makes Solar Window Tinting a Smart Choice for NZ Homes?
When your house gets too hot in summer, fans and heat pumps can only do so much. Solar window film helps fix the problem at the source by stopping excess heat before it enters the room, resulting in cooler days and less reliance on cooling systems.
Lower energy bills come next. Because your home stays cooler naturally, you won’t need to run your heat pumps or fans as much. That means reduced power usage that adds up to real savings over time. The cost of window tinting usually pays itself back without you having to lift a finger after it’s installed due to all the energy savings.
Our heat-reducing solar window film reflects up to 99% of harmful UV rays before they pass through your glass. This not only helps prevent fading of your flooring and furnishings but also adds an extra layer of protection for your skin against indoor UV exposure.
Finally, there’s your street appeal. Unlike bulky window coverings or heavy exterior shades, solar window film is a discreet solution. It doesn’t change the look of your home or block natural light. From the outside, your windows stay sharp and modern. Inside, you get all the comfort.

How Solar Window Film Works
When sunlight hits your windows, it brings more than light. It carries heat and UV rays that warm your rooms, fade your furniture, and drive up your power use. That’s where solar window film steps in. It’s a thin, transparent layer that’s carefully applied to the inside of your existing glass. Once it’s in place, it starts working straight away.
The film reflects a large amount of the sun’s infrared radiation, which is what causes your rooms to heat up. It also blocks up to 99% of UV rays, which are responsible for fading fabrics, flooring, and furniture. At the same time, it manages visible light transmission so your space still feels open and bright.
The result? More comfort and less wear on your wallet! That’s what makes solar tinting such a practical upgrade. You get better insulation, more privacy during the day, and a more consistent indoor environment without replacing your windows or changing how your home looks.

FAQ
Solar tinting reduces indoor heat by reflecting infrared rays and blocking a large percentage of UV light. This process involves applying a solar window film directly to the interior glass, creating a protective layer that filters and controls the amount of sunlight entering the room. By doing so, it helps maintain a cooler indoor temperature, minimises glare, and protects furnishings from sun damage, all without compromising natural light.
At Instant Tinting, we use LLumar’s high-quality solar window film, which is designed to last for years and years to come. Durability is generally dependent on the type of film used, the climate you live in and any external factors, such as cleaning.
We also offer a lifetime guarantee, covering both the film and the installation. This gives you lasting peace of mind and confidence in the quality and performance of our solar film.
Solar tinting will affect the intensity of light entering your home by reducing glare and filtering harsh sunlight, but it won’t block out natural light altogether. You can still enjoy bright, beautiful spaces without the uncomfortable heat build-up.
LLumar window film comes in a range of specifications from virtually clear options that preserve your views, to more opaque styles for added privacy. Most solar control films are clear which means letting visible light through, won’t be an issue.
It depends on the specific solar film used. We offer solar films that are virtually clear, making them barely noticeable from the outside, perfect for preserving views and maintaining the natural look of your windows.
We also offer darker tinted privacy window films that add a sleek, modern appearance while limiting visibility into your space during the day. The level of exterior visibility depends on the shade and reflectivity of the film you choose, so there’s an option to suit every style and privacy need.
While you may come across DIY solar window film kits available on the market, professional installation is highly recommended, especially for larger windows or high-performance films. Applying the film requires precision to avoid bubbles, creases, and dust contamination, which can affect both the appearance and performance. Professional installers ensure a flawless finish and your warranty remains valid, giving you long-term peace of mind and optimal results.
