Heat Rejection Window Film at a Church in Tanjung Sepat
How We Installed Heat Rejection Window Film at a Church in Tanjung Sepat
At Vilux, we installed IR Pro 05 heat rejection window film at a church in Tanjung Sepat to address excessive afternoon heat entering through its glass car porch roof and large floor-to-ceiling windows.
The church's representative told our team that strong sunlight had made the indoor spaces uncomfortable during activities. Even the covered car porch felt hot when people entered or exited their vehicles, prompting them to seek a practical solar heat control solution.
Why This Church Needed Heat Rejection Window Film
The church features extensive glass surfaces that allow natural daylight into the building. However, the same glass also exposes certain areas to intense afternoon sunlight.
The representative highlighted two main concerns:
Glass Car Porch Roof
The glass canopy provided rain shelter but did not sufficiently reduce solar heat, making vehicle entry and exit uncomfortable.
Large Interior Glass Windows
Direct sunlight entering through the floor-to-ceiling glazing caused heat to build up inside, especially during afternoon activities.
These conditions led the church's representative to contact our team for a suitable heat rejection window tinting solution.
Why We Recommended VILUX IR Pro 05
For this project, our team selected VILUX IR Pro 05, a darker solar-control window film designed to reduce solar heat transmission while providing UV protection and daytime privacy.
| Film Feature | Benefit for the Church |
|---|---|
| Solar heat rejection | Helps reduce solar heat entering through treated glass |
| 99% advertised UV rejection | Helps limit UV exposure and UV-related fading |
| Darker 5% visible light transmission | Reduces incoming visible light and glare |
| Daytime privacy | Makes interior spaces less visible from outside under suitable lighting conditions |
Our IR Pro 05 product range is advertised with high infrared rejection performance. However, actual indoor comfort depends on sunlight exposure, glass construction, ventilation and other building conditions.

How Our Team Installed the Window Film
Installing film on a glass roof requires a different approach from working on standard vertical windows. At this church, our team handled both overhead glazing and large interior glass panels.
Our Installation Process
01
Reviewing the Glass Areas
We examined the car porch roof and large windows affected by direct sunlight.
02
Preparing the Glass Roof
Our installers used ladders and coordinated their movements to handle the elevated glazing.
03
Positioning the Window Film
Team members worked together to lift, align and apply large sections of film.
04
Applying and Squeegeeing
We used application liquid and squeegees to position the film and remove trapped liquid.
05
Finishing the Window Edges
Our team worked around the glass edges and checked the film's placement and finish.
This project demonstrates why large glass roof installations require coordinated handling, suitable access and careful workmanship.

What Changed After the Window Tinting Installation?
Following the installation, the church's representative reported that the treated areas felt noticeably more comfortable, with daylight still entering the building.
This feedback was encouraging because the original concern was excessive heat affecting everyday use of the church and its car porch.
The project did not include documented before-and-after temperature measurements, so we describe the improvement based on the representative's experience rather than a specific temperature reduction.

Yes, suitable window films can be installed on compatible glass car porch roofs. We assess the glass type, access conditions and film compatibility before recommending an installation.
No. IR Pro 05 is designed to reduce solar heat transmission, but it cannot eliminate all heat entering a building. Actual performance depends on the glass and surrounding conditions.
Yes. With approximately 5% visible light transmission, IR Pro 05 is a dark film. We consider daylight requirements before recommending it for any particular space.
Reflective or darker films may improve daytime privacy when outdoor lighting is brighter than indoor lighting. However, they do not guarantee privacy at night.
Yes, provided the film is compatible with the existing glass. Large glazing may require additional installation planning, particularly for elevated windows, glass roofs and oversized panels.
