Not every window film performs the same way when exposed to heat. At VILUX, we believe homeowners should understand the differences between window film options before deciding what to install on their glass windows.
In our latest demonstration, we use an infrared test lamp, window film samples and a handheld measuring device to show how different samples respond under the test setup. We also explain why professional advice matters when selecting window tinting for a Malaysian home.
Many homeowners consider window tinting because their rooms become uncomfortable when sunlight enters through large windows. However, choosing a darker film does not automatically mean getting better overall heat rejection.
When recommending a suitable window film, we consider several factors:
The direction of the windows and how much direct sunlight they receive.
The film's infrared rejection and total solar energy rejection specifications.
How much daylight the homeowner wants to maintain.
Whether the space needs additional daytime privacy.
Our goal is to recommend window film based on the actual glass conditions and the homeowner's needs, rather than relying on appearance alone.
In our video, our representative places different samples in front of an infrared test lamp and uses a handheld measuring instrument to demonstrate their performance.
The demonstration includes three main elements:
We use a controlled light source to illustrate the effect of infrared radiation.
We compare different samples, including glass with VILUX window film and an untreated reference.
We display instrument readings during the comparison to help viewers observe differences under the demonstration conditions.
This demonstration helps explain how window film can interact with infrared radiation. However, it is not a substitute for standardised laboratory testing or a measurement of actual room temperature reduction.
In this video, we demonstrate the test equipment, compare samples and explain important considerations when selecting window film. We also discuss professional consultation and warranty information.
Video: Our team demonstrates window film samples using an infrared lamp and handheld measuring device.
The demonstration allows viewers to see how different samples perform when placed in front of the infrared test lamp. The instrument readings provide a visual comparison under the conditions shown in the video.
However, it is important to understand what the demonstration does and does not establish.
| What We Demonstrate | What It Does Not Prove |
|---|---|
| Differences between tested samples | The exact temperature reduction in every home |
| Instrument readings under the test setup | Guaranteed electricity bill savings |
| How the samples interact with infrared radiation | Total solar heat rejection based on one reading |
| Our product explanation process | Identical results for every glass type |
At VILUX, we use demonstrations to help customers understand window film performance. For actual product selection, we also consider technical specifications and the conditions of the installation site.
No. Infrared Rejection (IRR) and Total Solar Energy Rejected (TSER) measure different aspects of window film performance.
Our IR Pro Series is advertised with up to 99% infrared rejection, but that figure should not be interpreted as blocking 99% of all solar heat. Overall heat performance also depends on other parts of the solar spectrum and the specific film-and-glass combination.
When comparing window films, we encourage homeowners to understand:
The proportion of infrared radiation rejected under the relevant measurement specification.
The proportion of total incident solar energy rejected by the film-and-glass system.
The amount of visible light transmitted through the glass.

We do not recommend the same film for every house. Different window orientations, glass sizes and living preferences can influence which option is more suitable.
During our consultation, we focus on:
Understanding the existing glass and installation requirements.
Identifying areas affected by direct sunlight.
Explaining the available shades, performance specifications and appearance.
Balancing indoor comfort, daylight, privacy and budget.
We offer free on-site measurement and consultation in Kuala Lumpur, Selangor and Seremban. This helps us discuss suitable options based on the actual property rather than recommending a product without understanding the space.
In the demonstration video, we also discuss our advertised 7-year warranty. Warranty coverage is an important consideration because customers should understand the support available after installation.
We encourage customers to confirm the warranty applicable to their selected film, including its coverage, eligibility and terms, before proceeding. Warranty arrangements may depend on the product and applicable offer.
At VILUX, we help homeowners compare window film options based on actual sunlight exposure, glass conditions and comfort requirements. Our team can explain the product specifications and arrange free on-site measurement in Kuala Lumpur, Selangor and Seremban.

No. Our demonstration compares samples under a particular test setup. Actual indoor temperature changes depend on sunlight exposure, glass type, ventilation, building conditions and other factors.
We advertise a 7-year warranty for applicable window film products or offers. Our team can explain the relevant coverage, eligibility and warranty terms during consultation.
Our window film heat rejection demonstration helps homeowners understand why comparing product performance matters before installation. At VILUX, we combine practical demonstrations, product explanations and on-site assessment to recommend suitable window film solutions for different homes.
