Adding an architectural film is one way of saving on energy costs and also protect furniture and flooring within the building. This will add up to long-term savings and also help save the environment.
Be sure to build in a contingency of up to 10% of the building cost into your budget. Anything from building modification, equipment moving, or weather damage are just some of the things that come up. It's always better to be prepared.
