Choosing the Right Residential Window Tinting for Your Home

The right window tinting solution for your home depends on how much sunlight enters the room, the level of privacy you want, and whether your priority is reducing heat, minimising glare, or protecting interiors from UV exposure. At Luzen&Co, our residential window tint is available in a range of Visible Light Transmission (VLT) levels, so you can find the right solution for your home’s specific needs.

What Does VLT Mean?

Visible Light Transmission (VLT) refers to the percentage of natural light that passes through the window film.

  • A lower VLT (%) means a darker appearance as well as more privacy and heat reduction.
  • A higher VLT (%) means a brighter interior that still helps provide a level of UV protection and comfort.

The right VLT depends on the direction the room’s windows face and how you use the room.
