Heat Control
Beat the heat with high-performance window films. Benefit from cool rooms and free delivery over £100 with Lustalux.
If you are struggling with a hot conservatory or overheating rooms, our window films are the perfect solution. These specially designed films either block or bounce away harsh sun rays before they can heat up your living space.
We offer three main types of heat reduction window coverings to suit your needs:
• Tinted Window Film: Ideal for low-to-medium heat issues. These films use light or heavy tints to block heat while maintaining your view outside. They also provide a low amount of daytime privacy.
• Internal Reflective Film: Our top choice for excellent heat reduction without drastically darkening your room. The clever reflective surface bounces sun rays away before they enter your home. Also adds daytime privacy.
• External Reflective Film: Our ultimate heat buster. Fitted to the outside of your glass, it stops the sun before it even touches your windows, offering the absolute best heat reduction on our website. They are the best anti-heat window glass sheets available.
Contact the Lustalux team if you need advice on window film options.
Does One Way Film Offer Privacy?
Our reflective and one-way films create a beautiful mirror effect for daytime privacy, allowing you to see out while blocking the view inside. Please note that this effect relies on light levels. On very cloudy days, the reflection may be weaker. At night, if your indoor lights are on, the mirror effect will flip—meaning people outside will be able to see in, and your view out will be restricted. If heat control is your main issue, then you will need to use blinds or curtains at night to stop the internal mirror effect and provide privacy to your space.
How do I get Night-Time Privacy?
The idea that a "one-way film" can provide both day and night privacy while letting you see out is sadly a myth. One-way mirror films rely strictly on light levels. Because the film reflects the side with the lightest, the effect flips at night when your indoor lights are switched on. Making mirrored window film unsuitable for night time privacy.
What If I Need Stronger Privacy After Dark?
Frosted Window Film (Best for Total Privacy) - Perfect for bathrooms, bedrooms, and meeting rooms. This film completely obscures the view from both sides, giving you total peace of mind. As a bonus, the beautiful, frosted finish diffuses light, actually brightening your room and making it feel more welcoming.
Reeded Window Film (Best for Style & Total Privacy) - This stylish, ribbed film heavily distorts the view from both sides—especially as people move further away from the glass. It is available in clear or coloured finishes, with a choice of 1/2-inch or 1/4-inch reeds to suit your preferred level of privacy.
