Charlie: “Kyle in Tomball says he’s interested in saving money, and who isn’t, on his heating and cooling. He wanted to buy some tint for his windows. He wanted to know if you recommend that, who you recommend, because he doesn’t want to make the house dark inside. He just wants to stop the UV from coming in.
Podcast: Play in new window
Tom “That’s actually very good. You want the natural light; there’s no doubt about it. Solar X is the company to call. They have a 3M film that, well, as we like to say, lets the light in, keeps the heat out. So, that would be a great company to call. And if you’re worried about warranties on any of your windows when it comes to glass, 3M will cover the warranty and I’ve seen them do that.
Charlie: “I want to tell you this about that.
Tom “Yes.
Charlie:: “We just had, here at the new MogerMedia palace, we had …
Tom “It’s quite lovely.
Charlie: “Thank you. Well, it’s even lovelier now with the 3M window film we put on, yeah.
Tom “That’s right. Last week they were putting it on when I was here.
Charlie: “Oh, man, I want to tell you, for two days we had special pals in every room. And they were … The difference is, and I’ll tell you, here’s the place where I’ve really seen it, my office faces due east. And every morning, I would have to keep the shutters closed, because if the heat got ahead of me the AC couldn’t catch up. And so I’d have to do that. Well, now I can leave them open, because the UV, it stops that heat, and it’s much more comfortable. And when I do video, you know, I do a lot of video conferencing at my desk there …
Tom “Yes. You don’t look ghoulish now?
Charlie: “I don’t look like I’m in the Witness Protection Program.
Tom “Exactly.
Charlie: “Because it stops all the glare coming in. It used to be that the light coming in would blind everybody to what was in front of the camera. But anyway, so, yeah, they did a great job.
Tom “So, I take you’re a happy customer.
Charlie: “I’m a tickled-pink happy customer. And you know what came in my e-mail about a day later?
Tom “What?
Charlie: “A warranty from 3M.
Tom: “Oh, yeah.
Charlie: “Yeah. So, we’re good to go.
