There is no doubt that skylights will make your home lighter, brighter and more inviting. The trouble comes when they are thermally inefficient, letting heat escape from your property and costing you money. You can also experience glare when the sun is high in the sky, making it difficult to see screens or watch television. Skylight window film solves all these problems for you, offering better insulation and retaining heat by up to 33% in the colder months, whilst reducing glare by up to 82%. It allows you to really make the most of your skylight.

    PR Solar have just applied their specialist film to our whole conservatory roof and doors, due to having to work from home because of Covid-19 Makes an amazing difference to the heat temperature and glare reduction in the room. So pleased to have found Paul and have this installed before Summer really kicks in. Cannot recommend highly enough.

    Friendly reliable staff, fitted the film with efficiency, professionalism, and quality is outstanding. You can really notice a difference to the heat in the conservatory. Whilst light still comes in, the heat has been reduced dramatically so no longer feels like a sauna. We are west open facing meaning sun moves around the side of the windows then above normally trapping so much heat. In 24hrs the difference is amazing! Thanks Paul!

    Very professional, Paul explained fully about the products and price, absolutely perfect fit for my windows, I am very happy with the results. We are on street level so everyone can look in when they walk past, the net curtains hid the view and light and harboured dust, it has completely changed our living room and kitchen, to be able to look out and have the light in, from the outside it looks totally natural and people cannot see inside. Would highly recommend, clean fast, superb service.

  • Paul installed window film on our bi-fold doors in our garden room, and kitchen and lounge windows. Having had skin cancer recently, I was concerned about UV and wanted to continue to enjoy our garden room without having anxiety. Skin cancers are becoming increasingly common and PR Solar Window Film is the ideal solution. It also prevents our furnishings fading! I was impressed by the installation - efficient, professional and a fantastic result! Highly recommend this service to all and everyone.

    Nice quality finish, from the outside it gives the windows a bit of shine but doesn't look over the top, it gives the appearance of looking at an empty dark room. From the inside - you can't see it! Quick service and no mess. Great, I would recommend PR Solar to anyone wanting privacy film, our new windows now look very stylish.

Skylight Window Film FAQs

Skylights are probably the most challenging scenario for anyone looking to install their own window film. The fact that skylights are often quite high up, and the angle at which it needs to be installed means it’s unlikely that you’ll be able to properly install it unless you really know what you’re doing and have the right equipment on hand. This can be further complicated if you have a light tunnel that leads to your skylight, which is sometimes the case, especially in modern homes. It’s probably best to leave it to our professional installers to handle the installation for you.

Absolutely not. The whole reason people have skylights put in in the first place is to allow large amounts of natural light to filter into their property. Our skylight window film will not impact this light from making its way inside. Instead, it filters out harmful UV rays, which can cause damage to furnishings and décor elements in your home that are positioned directly below the skylight. Our window film will also prevent the sun’s rays from heating your home’s interior to uncomfortable levels. So you get to enjoy the perks of your skylight without having to put up with some of the potential drawbacks. That’s what we call a win-win!

It’s impossible to say exactly how long the skylight window film you have installed will last, as it depends on a number of different factors. But as a ballpark figure, you can expect your film to last for a least 10 years – that’s how long PR Solar guarantees its window film for. But that doesn’t mean to say it might not last longer. We’ve seen cases where after 20 years, the film is still going strong. Factors that can influence the longevity of your film include the type and size of skylight that you have, the conditions inside your home, and the local climate.

Yes, skylight film can contribute to lower heating and cooling costs over time. By reducing heat loss in winter and blocking excess heat in summer, it helps your home maintain a more stable indoor temperature. This means less strain on your central heating and air conditioning.

We’ve had customers tell us they noticed the difference not just in comfort, but in energy usage too. While we never make bold savings claims, thermal efficiency is a key benefit our clients value year after year.

For most skylight windows, the full installation process is typically completed within a few hours. We’ll always give you a clearer timeframe once we’ve seen your setup during the consultation. Since we carry out both the survey and installation ourselves, there’s no disconnect.

We also work efficiently without rushing the job. If the skylight is high or part of a larger structure, it may take longer due to access and prep. But we’ll always explain the plan so you know exactly what to expect before we begin.

Absolutely, and that’s one of the most common reasons people ask for skylight film in the first place. Our film blocks 99% of harmful UV rays that would otherwise cause furniture, carpets and flooring to fade. It protects the things you’ve invested in.

You still get to enjoy the natural light, but without the long-term damage it can bring. This is especially important for south-facing rooms or areas where you’ve already seen sun damage creeping in.

Most standard skylight glass is suitable, including toughened and double-glazed panes. We always check this in person before installation, just to make sure the right film is chosen. Some specialist or coated glass may need a different approach.

You won’t need to worry about the technical side of it. We’ll guide you through options once we’ve seen your skylight and confirm what’s suitable for both performance and longevity.

Cleaning is simple. A soft cloth or sponge with a mild soap solution is all you need. Avoid anything sharp or abrasive and don’t use ammonia-based sprays, as they can damage the film’s surface over time.

We’ll explain the do’s and don’ts once we’re done, but there’s not much to it. Our films are scratch-resistant on the exposed side, so you won’t need to worry about everyday cleaning or maintenance.

Yes, but with a small caveat. Window film works by controlling what passes through the glass, not by turning it into a one-way mirror. So if it’s dark outside and lights are on indoors, visibility may go both ways.

If privacy is a key concern at night, we’ll help you choose the right film or even combine it with other options. Just let us know what matters to you most and we’ll take it from there.
