    3M All-Season Low-E Window Film

    Year-round energy performance from one film — rejects summer solar heat, then reflects winter warmth back into your home to lower power bills all year.

    Overview

    3M™ All Season Low-E™ Window Film Series

    Low-E is 3M's answer to Melbourne's swing between hot summers and cold winters. In summer, it rejects a large portion of the sun's heat before it enters the room. In winter, its Low-Emissivity coating reflects heat generated inside the home back into the room — adding insulation to existing single-glazed windows.

    The result is comfort you feel all year and running costs you notice on the bill. It's an affordable way to improve energy performance without replacing your windows or upgrading to double glazing.

    Available in three shades — 20, 35 and 70 VLT — Low-E blocks 99% of damaging UV, helping protect furniture, flooring and artwork from premature fading. Glare reduction also makes screen-based work areas much more comfortable.

    Rejects summer heat

    High solar heat rejection cuts cooling loads through Melbourne summers so aircon runs less.

    Retains winter warmth

    Low-Emissivity coating reflects interior heat back into the room, adding insulation to single-glazed windows.

    All-year energy savings

    Works both directions — cooler in summer, warmer in winter — helping lower power bills and your carbon footprint.

    Lifetime residential warranty

    Backed by a limited lifetime residential and 12-year commercial 3M warranty when installed by a Select Partner.
