What Is Blackout Film?
Blackout film is a type of window film that blocks out all light. It’s usually made from a dark-coloured material, such as black or grey, and it’s applied to glass using an adhesive.
Blackout films are often used in office buildings and commercial premises to stop light from shining through windows and doors. They’re also popular in homes with skylights or roof lanterns, as they can reduce the amount of heat and glare that comes into the property.
How Does Blackout Film Work?
Blackout film works by absorbing and reflecting light away from the glass surface. The film acts like a barrier between the outside world and your home, stopping light from coming through.
As well as blocking out light, blackout film can also reduce heat build-up in your home. The film acts as a barrier between the outside air and your glass, stopping heat from coming through. This can help to keep your home cooler in the summer months, and it can also reduce your energy bills.

26th May 2020PR Solar have just applied their specialist film to our whole conservatory roof and doors, due to having to work from home because of Covid-19 Makes an amazing difference to the heat temperature and glare reduction in the room. So pleased to have found Paul and have this installed before Summer really kicks in. Cannot recommend highly enough.
Tracey Cannon
22nd May 2020Friendly reliable staff, fitted the film with efficiency, professionalism, and quality is outstanding. You can really notice a difference to the heat in the conservatory. Whilst light still comes in, the heat has been reduced dramatically so no longer feels like a sauna. We are west open facing meaning sun moves around the side of the windows then above normally trapping so much heat. In 24hrs the difference is amazing! Thanks Paul!

27th April 2020Very professional, Paul explained fully about the products and price, absolutely perfect fit for my windows, I am very happy with the results. We are on street level so everyone can look in when they walk past, the net curtains hid the view and light and harboured dust, it has completely changed our living room and kitchen, to be able to look out and have the light in, from the outside it looks totally natural and people cannot see inside. Would highly recommend, clean fast, superb service.

Paul installed window film on our bi-fold doors in our garden room, and kitchen and lounge windows. Having had skin cancer recently, I was concerned about UV and wanted to continue to enjoy our garden room without having anxiety. Skin cancers are becoming increasingly common and PR Solar Window Film is the ideal solution. It also prevents our furnishings fading! I was impressed by the installation - efficient, professional and a fantastic result! Highly recommend this service to all and everyone.

29th February 2020Nice quality finish, from the outside it gives the windows a bit of shine but doesn't look over the top, it gives the appearance of looking at an empty dark room. From the inside - you can't see it! Quick service and no mess. Great, I would recommend PR Solar to anyone wanting privacy film, our new windows now look very stylish.
