Why hospital window film? These days, everyone understands the benefits of natural light, of the boost in mood that sunlight can give to a person. And in a hospital, it seems even more important. Therefore it’s no surprise that these days, all modern hospitals have a window in every patient’s room, frequently a fairly large window to let in as much natural light as possible.

However, all of those windows can add a substantial amount to your hospital’s energy costs, if they are not all that thermally efficient. If they let the sun heat up the rooms, you’ll need more air conditioning. If they let the heat escape in the winter, you’ll need more heat.

hospital window film missouriAs every hospital administrator knows, energy bills are a part of overhead that cannot be minimized in any way. Heating and cooling costs are high and getting higher. But with energy efficiency hospital window film, there’s finally a practical and affordable solution that can knock a substantial chunk off those costs. Month after month, year after year!

If you have never investigated energy saving hospital window film, we’d like to tell you about it now. This product is easily installed to the insides of your hospital windows, and it immediately goes to work. In the summer, the rooms can really heat up when that summer sun is beating directly on them. In fact, if you touch the glass, you’ll find it to be quite hot, sometimes uncomfortably so. And the heat absorbed by the glass is released right into the rooms. But with the installation of energy saving hospital window film, a significant percentage of that heat gain is blocked. The windows will not absorb anywhere near as much heat and therefore will not release it into the room. Your patients (and staff, of course) will be more comfortable without anywhere near as much air conditioning, lowering your energy bill.

In the winter, the heat is transferred through the glass and right out of your hospital! This requires your heating system to keep working to replenish all that lost heat. But with the installation of energy efficiency hospital window film, that heat transfer is blocked. The heat stays in the room, leaving patients and staff more comfortable and leaving your heating system to do less work to keep the rooms at the correct temperature.
