Sun Solutions for Summer
As far as exposure to the sun we usually envision ourselves “catching rays” while basking on a beach, walking the back nine on the golf course, or cycling through the neighborhood park. But millions of Americans receive a large portion of their sun exposure when they don’t even realize it — in their homes and offices.
Research increasingly points to ultraviolet A (UVA) radiation penetrating through windows. UV radiation from the sun associated with about 90 percent of all skin cancers; reaches the earth as long- wavelength UVA and shortwave UV B rays. Glass for the most part, effectively blocks UVB; but regular windows allow UVA to penetrate.
UVA exposure is cumulative, and research has proven that skin exposed to sun shining through window glass can over time lead to significant skin damage. The UV exposure we receive sitting reading in front of a picture window or at a desk in a well lit room adds up.
Now that we know the dangers, what can be done about it? With the installation of window films like Hüper Optik® window films by Sun Solutions in Arden NC you can not only cool your home or office (saving immensely on energy bills); but occupants are also protected from the harmful Ultra Violet rays to the eyes and skin.
