Why does my siding look like it's melting?

Why does my siding look like it's melting?

A few reasons can make the siding look melting in residential and commercial buildings. One of the main reasons it could look like it is melting is that high-performance windows on houses and/or commercial buildings create an intense solar reflection that causes melting. It has been reported, through an immense amount of evidence regarding energy-efficient windows, that windows have the ability to create an intense enough reflection that can distort and melt vinyl siding. The siding may also look as if it is melting due to reaching its general melting point temperature. The melting can be intensified depending on what color and tone of vinyl siding is being reflected on. Darker tones and colors have a larger likelihood of melting faster than those with white and lighter tones because the darker tones absorb sunlight much faster.

What is Synthetic turf protection?

What is Synthetic turf protection?

Turf melting happens when the reflections of highly efficient windows designed to prevent heat from entering the home or living space reflect on artificial turf flooring. This causes the turf to exceed its natural melting point or heat resistance capabilities. As a result, your turf begins to change color, fade, and even burn, thereby distorting the natural grass look.

Reflect Defense Window Film Installation kit
Kirsten Keithly (Rancho Cucamonga, US)
5 star review

I installed the film on 4 windows at my clients house. It was easy to install. Client very happy with film and the install.

Hoping to save new siding

I had questions regarding the reflect defense film as to which product to chose to put on our 2 skylights because they were reflecting on our vinyl siding causing it to melt. I reached someone who explained the entire process, which was much appreciated. We placed our order which was fairly easy and we received our package very quickly. My husband applied the film to the first window with no problems, but had trouble getting it straight on the second window and ended up tearing the film. So we ordered a new piece, which again, we received very quickly, and he applied it with no problem! It looks great from the inside looking out, but we cannot comment at this time on whether or not it will protect our new vinyl siding from melting because it has only been on for approximately one week! But after speaking to their customer service, we feel confident and trust that this product will eliminate that reflection, and therefore, keep our vinyl siding safe from warping and/or melting!!

Good enough

I installed the film about a week ago, by myself a 65 year old woman. I live in the high desert (Hesperia) and on the two days it took to install, not due to the product but rather the weather. It was very windy on the days that I installed the film, I didn't really have a choice of waiting since my turf was already showing signs of the heat. As you can imagine, I have several wrinkles in the film, I tried to raise the film off the glass but was afraid of pulling too hard and tearing the film so it's good enough. It will do the job and some of the wrinkles have settled. I'm hoping for the 4-5 years of use up here in extreme weather. It can be below freezing in the winter and weeks of over 100 degrees in the summer.

As described

We got this so that our new turf doesn't burn with the window reflection. It was easy to install and works as described. I thought it would be harder to see through but it actually doesn't cause blurriness or anything out the window.

Works well

The white reflective film I purchased met our expectations. A litte expensive, but I wanted the high-quality I received. Installation went according to the easy to understand video.

Works as advertised

Neighbors were anxious that the glare from our upstairs window was creating hot spots in their living room. I put window film on the window and the glare was cut in half and the heat was reduced by 75%. Neighbors are relieved.

Product works as expected!

Had to order for a window and a sliding glass door after we had turf installed in the back yard. Product went up good but it is thin and you have to be very careful to not rip or have it crease over. But definitely good to DIY and product works as expected! Customer service is great too when I ordered wrong at first.

Worked as advertised

The sun reflecting off our windows was melting the siding on our garage. You could see the beams of light coming off like the sun thru a magnifying glass. After placing reflect defense the temp and focus of light coming of the windows is significantly less.

Excellent so far

Prompt shipping and installed easily myself. The installation videos on the website are very helpful. Products also looks great on the windows. Hopefully will hold to the test and not reflect sunlight.

first time

First time we have ordered. The reprehensive was very, very helpful on the phone while ordering. Received the item very quickly. Very easy to install, and was just enough that we ordered for the one window. Now just waiting to see how well it works. We installed about a month ago and so far now damage. We are hoping that it will
last thru the summer months.

Works perfectly but don’t follow their installation video

In the photo you’ll see on the right I followed their instructions and on the left I followed my own. I applied the very top and smoothed it out slowly in a downward motion as I removed the backing. Once this material adheres to a surface it’s really hard to remove without it tearing because of the perforations.

Reflect Defense Window Film

It is impossible to know if it works or not with just a few days. I have to wait at least until this summer comes and goes. The only thing I can say as of now is that the view from the inside to the outside is not that bad. You can actually see outside pretty good, considering the film is there.

Saving Siding

Applied black to my neighbors windows that had burned my siding, windows are new since hurricane Irma. I had to replace repair damaged T1-11. It was very easy to install.

It works!

I was skeptical at first that this would would but it worked exactly as is advertised.. I was having problems with my deck furniture melting from reflecting light from upstairs windows. This product fixed it. The blurring from inside is really minimal and not really any more than a normal window screen. This was worth every penny!

Prevents turf melt - looks like a screen!

Cool product to prevent further turf melt on my artificial turf. I only wish there was a video to demonstrate wet application. The written instructions were fine, but a visual would be nice. Maybe I just missed it on your site.

Worth the Money!

I bought this product in October 2021 and for some reason, I just got around to installing it. Now I wish I had this product even sooner. This product was bought to put on my neighbors window as it faces east and during the early morning hours, it reflects the suns rays on my house about 38ft away. Last week on a sunny 58 degree morning, I used my instant read BBQ thermometer to measure the temperature and it was an intense 224 degrees. Wow, did not expect that high. So the next day I installed the Clear Screen on my neighbors window. With morning clouds the rest of the week, I was finally able to measure the temperature on a clear morning and the temperature at the most intense location was only about 82 degrees. 140 DEGREE DIFFERENCE!! Thankfully this window is in a non-finished closet so view is not a problem. Now I can finally replace my siding without fear of it being melted again.

Great product

I bought the black film to protect my newly installed artificial turf. I have 4 windows all facing the sun and I had a great view of the lake through my windows. So it imperative to protect the turf, whilst retaining my view. I spoke to the customer service first to evaluate and discuss the options. I must say the reps are extremely knowledgeable, patient and helpful. I finally decided to order the product. The rep were kind enough to understand the measurements i needed for all windows and sent 1 big roll with some additional as well for buffer. The how-to-DIY videos were super helpful and easy to apply the film on my windows.
I’m glad i purchased this product which is reasonably priced. Totally worth it!!
