If your energy-efficient windows are melting your artificial turf, warping siding or scorching plants, the glass is the culprit. Turf Guard film kills the concentrated reflection at the source.
Seeing melted turf or warped siding near a window? We’ll come out, trace the reflection to the exact pane, and quote the Turf Guard fix in writing, no pressure.
Low-E glass can reflect and focus sunlight hot enough to deform synthetic turf and vinyl.
Modern Low-E windows have a reflective coating that bounces heat away to save energy. On concave or double-pane glass, that reflection can focus into a concentrated beam, like a magnifying glass, that tracks across your yard. Artificial turf, vinyl siding, patio furniture and plants sitting in that beam can hit temperatures high enough to melt or warp. Turf Guard film applied to the reflecting window scatters that beam so it can’t concentrate.
Every case is diagnosed before we recommend a fix.
We confirm which pane is reflecting and where the beam lands across the day, so we treat the actual cause, not guess.
A specialized exterior-grade film that diffuses the reflection so it can no longer concentrate onto turf or siding.
Where it helps, we pair the fix with solar film so the same windows also cut your indoor heat and glare.
The number-one victim. Melted, matted or discolored patches in a line across the lawn are the tell-tale sign of window reflection.
Reflected beams warp and buckle vinyl siding and fencing on neighboring walls. Film stops the damage spreading.
Furniture, cushions and composite decking sitting in the beam path can discolor and deform. Treating the glass ends it.
Scorched, one-sided plant damage near a bright window is often reflection, not sun. Turf Guard relieves it.
“A melted stripe kept appearing on our new turf. They found the exact window and filmed it. No more melting, saved us re-sodding.”
Carlsbad
“Our neighbor’s window was warping our siding. WCCT diagnosed it and the film solved a fight nobody knew how to fix.”
San Marcos
“Thought I needed new windows. The film was a fraction of the cost and the scorching stopped completely.”
Poway
The classic sign is a melted, matted or discolored stripe or arc that moves across the turf with the sun and lines up with a nearby window, usually a double-pane Low-E unit. We confirm the source on-site before recommending film.
It can be either. Reflected beams often cross property lines and damage a neighbor’s turf or siding. We trace the beam to the exact reflecting pane, whichever home it’s on, and treat that glass.
Yes. Turf Guard film diffuses the reflection so it can no longer concentrate into a hot beam. Once the offending pane is treated, the melting stops.
Far cheaper. Filming the reflecting window costs a fraction of replacing the whole window unit, replacing melted turf, or re-siding a wall, and it can be done in a single visit.
The film is designed to solve the reflection with minimal change to appearance, and it adds UV and heat benefits. We’ll show you samples before installing.
