Window Film for Artificial Grass

Artificial grass is one of the best additions you can make to your property. It looks great right away – you never have to worry if the seed took or not, and you don’t have to worry about the sod dying without taking root. There is no watering, so fertilizer needed, so drying out. Your fake turf grass will look great on day one and it will remain looking perfect for years to come even without any real maintenance from you beyond perhaps raking or blowing off the leaves that fall on it.

That’s the case, that is, unless window reflections melt the artificial grass at your home and ruin its looks, a problem faced by all too many home and business owners who have turf grass and energy efficient windows in close proximity.

How does window glare melt fake grass? The simple answer is a concentration of heat, but how that happens is actually pretty amazing, though no less frustrating when it results in damage to your property.

When sunshine hits traditional single-pane glass windows, much of it passes through the pane into the home, while the rest of the light is bounced off the glass to fall where it may. Even if it falls on fake grass, which has a melting point a little under 200º F, the light will not have been concentrated into a hot beam, merely reflected as it was when it came down from the sky.

Energy efficient windows, however, have a highly reflective exterior that rejects much more sunlight than regular windows. On top of that, low-e (or low emissivity) windows are double paned and there is a vacuum seal between the interior and exterior panes. This seal creates a slight concavity to the panes of glass, bending them inward and creating a lens-like effect. So now you have even more sunlight being reflected by the coating on the exterior of the glass and you have that sunlight being concentrated into a beam. The makings of a burned lawn are all right there.

One of the things so many homeowners and business owners worry about when looking for the best window film to stop sun reflections melting artificial grass at their property is how the anti glare window film is going to make the home or business look. If you are worried about what window film for fake grass looks like, don’t worry: we are always glad rot show pictures of anti glare window film because this solution to protecting artificial grass against damage does not damage the looks of your home or business — in fact, Turf Guard Window Film can even improve the aesthetic of the property.

So what should you look for if you are concerned your synthetic lawn may be at risk of melting caused by window reflections? Go through this quick checklist:

• Do you have energy efficient windows on the ground or second floor of your home or business?
• Does a nearby neighbor have energy efficient windows?
• Is your lawn that’s in view of these low-e windows made up of fake grass?
• Does sunlight have a direct path to your windows not blocked by trees, structures, or anything else?

If you have the conditions in which sunshine could melt fake grass, it’s best to consider the issue not a matter of if but simply of when sun glare melts artificial lawns that just happen to be the grass you paid for.

And even if you have already had your fake grass and your low-e windows for a few months and have seen no issues with window glare ruining turf grass, don’t grow complacent and think you’re safe too soon: as the seasons change and earth’s position relative to the sun shifts, the glare reflected off the windows will change where it falls on your property. So patches of grass that were once completely untouched by sun reflections off energy efficient windows may soon be searing in the heat of window reflections, and if that heat gets too intense, the fake grass will melt and there will be no remedy for the damage save to rip out all that artificial grass, send it off to the landfill, and have new synthetic grass installed at great expense and use of your time.

The better approach is of course to protect the lawn you already have by installing Turf Guard Window Film on your windows now and stopping the damage before it starts. Getting an anti glare window tint to stop reflections melting fake grass is also a wise idea even if you yourself don’t even have fake grass but anyone nearby does: it costs a lot less to install some Turf Guard Window Film now than it does to replace a neighbor’s artificial grass ruined by sun reflecting off your windows. And even that’s nothing compared to the potential legal fees and penalties if it goes the route of a lawsuit – yours would not be the first lawsuit over fake grass melted by window reflections or the first legal suit over vinyl siding melted by window glare.

Avoid these costly and awkward, unpleasant possibilities by just making the modest purchase and quick installation of Turf Guard Window Film now before the damage occurs.
