If you've ever been in our bonus room (not the photo shown!) then you know how the West facing room can heat up from the Prairie sun! We spent one summer with it and that was more than enough. So we did some research and brought in a company that does 3M window films. What a difference!
The film has one of the best solar heat reduction ratings on the market and we should notice the 48% heat reduction, especially on those long summer days! Of course, it also has the added bonus of keeping heat in during our winter months.
And to help keep things cool, we installed a Phantom Door Screen on our front door. There is already a screen on the back door - so this creates an excellent cross-breeze. We have tons of visitors coming next month, so you can thank us for the added comfort when you visit : )

Thanks, we are looking forward to the improvements.
We put a similar film on our front window in the other house, after years of heat and fading.
This isn't your family room?
I thought I recognized the furniture from Grant's last visit. I REALLY like the area rug and your new view! It's kind of a mural-type film I guess hey? They didn't have that when we got ours done.
