Window tint against warming by GOCUBE
Sunday 11th November 2007, saw the second annual Walk Against
Warming. With up to 150,000 people marching across the country the topic of
climate change has never been so prevalent.
As individuals there are a number of ways available to us to reduce energy
consumption and green house gases. Window Energy Rating Scheme is used in
relation to the BASIX system and acknowledges that "The application of window
film can positively contribute to a building's energy rating." Window film is
a cost effective alternative to low-e and 'comfort' glazing types for both the
residential and commercial markets.
Installation of Solar Control Film reduces heat transference from outside in.
Limiting the volume of solar energy entering the building/room reduces the need
for artificial coolers such as air conditioners and fans to maintain a comfortable,
workable temperature.
GOCUBE recently installed Solar Gard window film, manufactured
by Bekaert Speciality Films, to the Salvation Army's Parramatta offices. This
complimentary job not only saves the Salvo's money now but will also help to
reduce energy consumption and costs for years to come.
