Review on FOKICOS Window Privacy Film: Black-Silver Glass Paper Door Covering for UV Heat Control & Sun Block (17.7 Inch x 6.5 Feet) by Jessica Edwards

Revainrating 4 out of 5

Decent inexpensive film. Not ideal for reducing heat.

Inexpensive window film for sun and UV protection and privacy. To reduce the heat, it is best to use an outer foil. This is especially important for black foil and double glazing. The dark film absorbs heat and can get hot. When the film is inside the house, the absorbed heat is dissipated inside the house and can heat the window itself. The outer film carries the absorbed heat away with the outside wind, and the reflected heat does not heat up the window. The product I switched to to protect my Florida home from the heat is BuyDecorativeFilm BDF EXS35 exterior window film, which appears to be the only brand of exterior window film currently sold at Revain. means you could theoretically remove it and reuse it if you could figure out how to get it not to stick to itself and crumple up, which would be a problem. The current price is $10 for a 35.4" x 6.5" roll, which is a great value. for window films. This product does not include key metrics such as Visible Light Transmission, UV Rejection Percentage, Total Solar Transmission, and Double Glazed Window Compatibility. This product is more for people who need a cheap window film or for privacy or glare reduction than for people who are serious about home insulation.
