ikonic is a Commercial vehicle wrapping and signage company in Wheat Ridge, Colorado.
“Not unless you choose a dark film. Lighter shades such as Ultra View 35, Cool Alloy 60 and Pristine Ceramic 70 and 80 cut heat and glare while the room stays bright. We show you samples on your actual glass at the estimate.”
“Yes. The films we install block up to 99% of UV, which is the main cause of fading. Heat and visible light also play a part, so a light solar film does more than a clear film. Near-clear options exist for rooms where you want nothing to change but the fading.”
“It cuts solar heat coming through the glass, which means a lighter load on your AC in summer. Low-E options help hold warmth in a Colorado winter. We do not publish savings percentages or utility-bill figures, because we cannot measure them in your house.”
“Most homes are finished in a single visit. We protect floors and furniture, prepare the glass, install, and finish every edge before we leave. We confirm the plan for your house on the written quote.”
“Thornton, Colorado. We are home-based, so there is no showroom or public address. We come to you for the estimate and the install.”
“No. ikonic installs window film on homes and storefronts only.”
“Josh, the founder. He identifies your glass, checks it against the manufacturer's compatibility chart and leaves one written quote.”
“Yes. You can hold the film against your own glass and see the shade in your light before you decide.”
“The 20 cities listed under "Where we work" above, from Thornton to Littleton. Travel may apply outside the Denver metro.”
“Not on its own. One-way film depends on the outside being brighter than the inside. After dark that flips, so people outside see in when your lights are on. For night privacy, close a shade, or choose Frost or Whiteout.”
“Your room becomes the bright side. From outside, the glass looks about as clear as untreated glass. From inside, you see your own reflection. Lights off, and the effect returns.”
“Frost at $11 per sq ft. It blurs the view both ways and still lets daylight in. Whiteout at $11 is solid white with no view at all. Blackout at $11 blocks light, but only on tempered single-pane glass.”
“No. Frost blurs the view both ways, day and night, and still lets daylight in. If you need to see out, use one-way film by day and a shade at night, or Frost on only the lower half.”
“Tempered glass is fine for most films and is the only glass approved for Blackout. Textured glass depends on how rough the surface is, because film needs a smooth face to bond to.”
“Yes, if the glass passes the compatibility check. We identify your glass and check it against the manufacturer's chart of 972 film-and-glass combinations.”
“Two warranties are involved. Your window maker's warranty covers the window; the film manufacturer's warranty covers the film. Some window makers exclude aftermarket film, so check your window paperwork before we install. Our glass check keeps the film warranty valid and keeps film off glass it could harm. Our post on window film and window warranties goes deeper.”
“Many films, yes. The pane has to be under 40 square feet and the chart has to approve the pairing. A low-E coating changes which films are safe, so tell us if you know you have one, or choose "I don't know" on the glass checker and we confirm in person. Triple pane is treated like dual pane.”
“No. Window film is applied to existing glass and does not change the window or the structure. No permit is needed to install it.”
