Film to tint double glassed windows?

[pjayakody]

Hello

Could you please advise me on a film that I can use on Double glassed windows? Is it possible to stick reflective film on outside glass of the window? I am hoping that if I apply the reflective film to outside glass it might reflect light and heat and might not heat the glass bad enough to damage it.

Thanks.

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @pjayakody. It's fantastic to have you join us and many thanks for your question.

Unfortunately our window films are not suitable for double-glazed windows as there is a risk of damage to through through cracking of the glass.

Perhaps you might like to check out our range of interior blinds instead.

Please let me know if you have any questions.

I want a mirror reflective film on my double glazed windows for privacy but the products binnings sell says they’re not suitable for double glazed windows. Do you have any other options for double glazed windows for privacy?

thanks

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @jfayeh95. It's sensational to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about window film.

I'm not sure when the addition of the warning about not being suitable for double-glazed windows was added to the product, but you're correct that our window films are not suitable for double-glazed windows. There's a risk that heat build-up could cause the glass to crack. I've updated my original reply to reflect that.

I've contacted the manufacturer, and unfortunately, there is nothing in their range that is suitable for double-glazed windows.

As mentioned above, you might consider installing blinds in that location. Many blinds, like the Windoware 180 x 210cm White Eclipse Day Night Roller Blind, include a sheer blind for daytime and a blockout blind for nighttime.

Please let me know if you have any questions.
