Forgot the exact name / brand. But it's 3 layered tint. Roughly rm1200 for 1 storey semi-d

The drawback, the living room is subjectively dark even at noon

your house fengsui not good? those normally hardest to sell out facing sunset view 1?

from 12-6pm whole day house kena blast with direct sun?

solution:
1. install industrial grade aircon
2. sell house, and this time smart abit go choose those facing SUNRISE


ps- real answer: tinting only works if you're having a problem of DIRECT sunlight lighting up and warming up your house interior, if you don't have this prob, then tinting is useless as the tinted window itself is like a huge indoor heater.

TS, i live in apartment which windows facing sunset, great for drying laundry
i've installed this kind of tint, definitely helps a lot

i have 2 layer of curtains, when it's not that hot, i open window and put on that sheer curtain for some natural light
when it gets really hot bright outside, i close window and close both sheer and the blockout/blocking curtain, and the aircond doesn't have to work that hard to cool the room

tinting helps but pls dont install the reflective type - it will annoy the entire neighbourhood.

Cool the transparent / blur type that absorbs heat and double layers one.

it helps a lot!

and roof the aircon compressor for better cooling effect under the shade.

Yes. Glass allows the harmful UV ray to pass through together with the heat.

Bought tinted and asked the people to install it.
Green out, silver in.
Regret. At night, people can see the ding dong, while we see the reflection of ourselves.
But, at least the house is cooler in the afternoon.
P/s: bought from sunshine windows film.
Petang order, next morning sampai.

Correct.
I bought the sun-out /black out curtains 2 size bigger to cover the walls surrounding the window to reduce the heat transfer to the room.
Very effective and reduces the electric bill plus lesser the load on the aircon.

Why you didn't pay attention to heat source when buy the house? That's why people say Feng Shui is important, Feng Shui is not just about superstitions, it has practicality in real life, like where the heat from Sun come from, where heat escapes, source of noise, etc etc.

I have full black tint on all windows. So far so good.
