LLumar One Minute Challenge™

Use Our Energy Savings Calculator to Determine Your Return on Investment

"Energy costs represent 30% of a typical commercial building's annual budget and is the single largest operating cost. Solar heat gain through windows contributes to one-third of a building's cooling load."

LLumar One Minute Challenge™

The LLumar One Minute Challenge™ Energy Savings Calculator uses the U.S. Department of Energy's DOE-2 energy simulation program, along with average energy costs for your area, to calculate expected savings. Using the drop-down menus below, simply select your location, glass type, building type and product type and we'll show you how much you can expect to save - and how quickly an investment in LLumar can pay you back.

Small Commercial
*Small Office, School, Retail or Other with 20% Window-to-Wall Ratio
Based on a 5,000 square metre floorspace (55,000 square feet), 3 story building, with a window to wall ratio of 20% on all exposures. Film installed on all elevations. Energy savings determined using U.S. Department of Energy's DOE-2 energy simulation program. Actual savings are dependent upon many factors including actual local energy costs, glass type, film type, shading of glass from overhangs and adjacent buildings, etc. Consult with Solutia for a detailed and more accurate assessment.
Large Commercial
*Office, Hotel or Other with 50% Window-to-Wall Ratio
Based on a 15,000 square metre floorspace (160,000 square feet), 5 story building, with a window to wall ratio of 50% on all exposures. Film installed on all elevations. Energy savings determined using U.S. Department of Energy's DOE-2 energy simulation program. Actual savings are dependent upon many factors including actual local energy costs, glass type, film type, shading of glass from overhangs and adjacent buildings, etc. Consult with Solutia for a detailed and more accurate assessment.
High Performance Exterior Film
**SHGC 0.25 or lower
SHGC = Solar Heat Gain Coefficient. The lower a window's SHGC, the less solar heat it transmits. The SHGC (also know as the g-value in some countries) is the fraction of incident solar radiation that passes through a window, including solar energy that is directly transmitted and that which is absorbed and subsequently released inwardly by re-radiation and conduction. SHGC is expressed as a number between 0 and 1.
High Performance Interior Film
**SHGC 0.25 or lower
SHGC = Solar Heat Gain Coefficient. The lower a window's SHGC, the less solar heat it transmits. The SHGC (also know as the g-value in some countries) is the fraction of incident solar radiation that passes through a window, including solar energy that is directly transmitted and that which is absorbed and subsequently released inwardly by re-radiation and conduction. SHGC is expressed as a number between 0 and 1.
Medium High Performance Interior Film
**SHGC 0.26 to 0.35
SHGC = Solar Heat Gain Coefficient. The lower a window's SHGC, the less solar heat it transmits. The SHGC (also know as the g-value in some countries) is the fraction of incident solar radiation that passes through a window, including solar energy that is directly transmitted and that which is absorbed and subsequently released inwardly by re-radiation and conduction. SHGC is expressed as a number between 0 and 1.
Medium Performance Interior Film
**SHGC 0.36 to 0.45
SHGC = Solar Heat Gain Coefficient. The lower a window's SHGC, the less solar heat it transmits. The SHGC (also know as the g-value in some countries) is the fraction of incident solar radiation that passes through a window, including solar energy that is directly transmitted and that which is absorbed and subsequently released inwardly by re-radiation and conduction. SHGC is expressed as a number between 0 and 1.
