Solar Optical Properties Glossary

Total Solar Energy: all the energy in the solar spectrum that reaches us on the earth’s surface. This includes UVA and UVB, Visible light, and Infrared energy up to roughly 2500nm.
  • Transmitted: the amount of total solar energy that passes through the glass, into the building.
  • Reflected: the amount of total solar energy that is reflected off of the glass and directed back outside. This energy does not come into the building.
  • Absorbed: the amount of total solar energy that is absorbed into the glass. This heats up the glass, making it hotter to the touch, and re-radiates a small amount of heat back into the room. The majority of absorbed energy is kept out of the room though.
Visible Light: the portion of the solar spectrum containing visible light we can see, from roughly 380nm up to 780nm, contains all the colors of the spectrum.
  • Transmitted: the amount of visible light that passes through the glass, into the building. This is how light or dark the film is.
  • Reflected Exterior: the amount of visible light that is reflected off the exterior surface of the window. This is seen when standing outside the building. A higher reflectance value means the window looks more like a mirror from the outside.
  • Glare Reduction: the reduction in visible light transmitted compared to clear unfilmed glass. 
U Factor: heat transfer due to temperature differences outside and inside. Represents the amount of heat passing through 1 sq ft of glass in 1 hour for every 1 degree temperature difference between the outside and inside. A lower value means less heat passes through, and this is generally of interest for keeping heat inside the building in cold climates.
  • Median: refers to the part of the U Factor/U Value chart that applies to “mild winter” conditions.
  • Design: refers to the part of the U Factor/U Value chart that applies to “severe winter” conditions.
Ultraviolet Light Rejection: the amount of UV energy blocked by the film, either by reflecting or absorbing it. This energy does not enter the building.

Shading Coefficient: the ratio of heat passing through a filmed window to heat passing through clear unfilmed glass. A lower number means better heat rejection.

Solar Heat Gain Coefficient: similar to the shading coefficient, except this value also takes into account energy that is re-radiated back into the room from the glass heating up due to increased absorption. Again, a lower number means better heat rejection.

Total Solar Energy Rejection: the total amount of solar energy that is kept out of the building. Although not accurate, this is commonly referred to as heat rejection.

Infrared Rejection: the amount of infrared (IR) energy that is blocked by the film, either by reflecting or absorbing. This value is for the whole IR region of the solar spectrum, roughly 780nm up to 2500nm.

Why Tint Your Car Windows?

The simple answer is having car window tint on your windows protects your vehicles interior and exterior plus any property from the damaging effects of the sun.

Over time we all know the sun can cause the fading of your seats and upholstery and even crack and ruin your dashboard and paint. With the extreme heat of Arizona we all know how hot it gets in our vehicles and the importance of having the proper window tint protection!


Window tint cal also reduce vehicle theft and break-ins as it makes it harder for people to see in your vehicle. Its also pretty valuable in the case of an accident to hold glass shatter and pieces together as opposed to exploding on you or your loved ones.

On top of physical benefits there is of course you! The sun is very damaging to the skin and the strong glare can cause eye strain and even eye damage! By having the proper window film professionally installed it is definitely beneficial to your health!
