Your air conditioner stops working overtime. That’s what happens when properly installed window film blocks the heat before it hits your windows. You’ll notice the difference in your first energy bill.
Your furniture stays vibrant longer. UV rays that normally bleach expensive upholstery and hardwood floors get stopped at the glass. No more moving furniture away from windows or watching your investment fade month by month.
Privacy comes without darkness. Modern window films give you the seclusion you want while keeping rooms naturally bright. You control what neighbors see without turning your home into a cave.
Miami Design Group isn’t another fly-by-night installer. We’re a comprehensive design company that knows what works in Tamiami’s climate. We’ve built our reputation solving the real problems Miami homeowners face every day.
We understand Florida’s building codes, hurricane requirements, and what materials actually last in this humidity. When other companies install generic solutions that warp or fail, we use films specifically engineered for South Florida conditions.
You’re working with people who live here too. We know the afternoon sun that turns your living room into a furnace. We’ve seen what cheap installations look like after a few hurricane seasons.
We start with precise measurements at your property. Every window is different, and generic sizing leads to gaps, poor operation, and treatments that look amateur. We measure everything twice.
Next comes material selection based on your specific needs. Want to block morning sun in bedrooms but keep the kitchen bright? Need hurricane-resistant options for storm season? Interested in smart home integration? We design solutions around how you actually live.
Installation happens on your schedule with complete protection of your property. Our team shows up on time, protects your floors and furniture, and doesn’t leave until everything works perfectly.

Custom window film designed specifically for Tamiami’s climate challenges. We’re not installing generic products that might work. You get ceramic window film, security films, and energy-efficient options that handle Florida’s humidity, salt air, and UV intensity.
Smart home integration that actually works with your existing systems. Whether you use Alexa, Google Home, or dedicated automation platforms, your window treatments can adjust automatically based on time, temperature, or sun position.
Hurricane-resistant installations using reinforced mounting systems rated for high winds. These aren’t standard residential mounts. We use commercial-grade hardware designed to meet local building codes.
Properly installed window film typically reduces cooling costs by 20-30% in South Florida’s climate. The exact savings depend on your home’s size, window orientation, and current efficiency.
South-facing and west-facing windows see the biggest impact because they receive the most intense afternoon heat. Many Tamiami homeowners notice the difference in their first month’s electric bill, especially during summer when AC units work hardest.
The investment pays for itself through energy savings, usually within 2-3 years. After that, the reduced energy costs become pure savings every month.
Ceramic window films perform best in Miami’s heat and humidity because they don’t contain metals that can corrode over time. These films reject heat without interfering with cell phone signals or WiFi.
For maximum energy efficiency, we recommend films that block infrared heat while maintaining visible light transmission. This keeps rooms naturally bright while stopping the heat that drives up cooling costs.
Security films add an extra layer of protection during hurricane season by helping hold glass together if impact occurs. Many Tamiami residents choose hybrid solutions that combine energy efficiency with safety features.
Yes, motorized window treatments integrate seamlessly with popular smart home platforms including Control4, Lutron, Alexa, and Google Home. You can program automatic adjustments based on time of day, temperature, or sun position.
Smart integration is especially valuable in Tamiami where sun patterns change dramatically throughout the day. Your window treatments can automatically close during peak heat hours and open when temperatures moderate.
We handle the technical setup and programming so everything works with your existing smart home ecosystem. Most clients love the convenience of controlling multiple windows simultaneously or setting up scenes for different times of day.
Most residential installations take 2-4 hours depending on the number of windows and complexity of the treatments. We schedule installation within 1-2 weeks of your final measurements and design approval.
Our upcoming in-house manufacturing will reduce lead times even further, getting your custom window coverings installed faster than most competitors who rely on outside manufacturers.
Commercial projects vary based on scope – a small office might take half a day while a hotel could require several days. We work around your schedule and business hours.
Professional-grade window films are designed to work safely with modern windows and typically don’t void glass warranties when properly installed. We use films that comply with glass manufacturers’ warranty requirements.
The key is using appropriate films for your specific window type and having them installed by certified professionals. DIY installations or cheap films can cause problems, but quality materials installed correctly actually protect your windows from UV damage and thermal stress.
We provide comprehensive warranties covering both materials and installation workmanship. Manual systems carry 3-year warranties while motorized treatments include 5-year coverage on motors and automation components.
Yes, we offer financing options to make professional window film installation more accessible. Many energy-efficient window treatments also qualify for federal tax credits, letting you earn back 30% of the purchase price up to $1,200 annually under the Energy Efficient Home Improvement Credit.
The federal government offers energy tax credits on select energy-efficient window films as part of the Inflation Reduction Act of 2022. This can significantly offset your initial investment.
We provide detailed quotes after measuring your specific windows and understanding your automation needs. The combination of energy savings, tax credits, and financing options makes professional installation more affordable than most homeowners expect.
