Sounds like a time for some "self-insurance" set up. The manufactures covering any warranty can be a challenge. Just put back a percent on each job in an account and keep a certain amount in there for "justin" Justin Case that is....

I don't even worry about my customers coming to me for glass breakage. I have only seen two windows ever break after I had put film on. One was a 48 wide and 95 tall window that got some physical shock from wind pretty soon after I done it. His homeowners insurance, I think, covered the glass and I re-tinted it for free.... The other was a 72 x 108 plate glass in a 100 year old building. It was likely the framing, wind, and all caused that one. Customer called me to re-tint it. Her insurance paid for it all.

Been with Llumar Vista and Huper Optik for some time now.

Not many issues with glass breakage, but when I have, they both have been very quick to handle.

No complaints.

Damage to glass because of window tinting is very rare. Many manufacturer's are dropping the absorption rate from thier spec cards because they are bolstering the heat rejection by increasing the absorption. Be aware and be careful.

Good Luck to you.

      help arquitectural in Puerto Rico heat

      Hi, new to the forum but a previous lurker. Was wondering if you guys had any suggestions on tints for a business in Puerto Rico who's windows face north (humidity 80% temp 70-100). Main concern is heat reduction though i would like for it to not be super dark since it is a work area. Have not contacted installers yet since I wanted to have some knowledge about products and specs beforehand to make sure im getting what i need. Thank you! From what i've gathered i should look out for: dual reflective film and low absorptive/high solar reflection products used this topic among others for research: "should be a go-to such as: 3M's Night Vision15 or NV25, Vista Film's Dual Reflective18 or DR 28, LLumar's DR15 or DR25 (which closely matches 3M NV), or Madico's Optivision in and around the same number assignment. The numbers assigned to films represent the visible light transmission of the product." "The higher the reflectivity of a film product, the better when dealing with desert heat."

      Stratos 70 on windshield, what is this?

      I had it removed and gave up on the window. I guess I'm too picky to have the window done...

      Stratos 70 on windshield, what is this?

      It looks like the end of the roll was used which has adhesive marks from being attached to the plastic core. You can't use the very end of the film roll.

      South facing windows DR film

      Install went great. I went with NV-25, I am very happy. The room has been darkened significantly, from bright and hot to much more pleasant and enjoyable. Watching TV during the day is no longer blinding, when it is cloudy it is definitely a bit gloomy, I am glad I did not go with NV-15. I plan on getting more windows done in the future to help cut down on heat energy. Thanks for everyone's input!
