Full Storefront Upgrade with 3M™ Night Vision™ 25

Sunray Window Films installing 3M Night Vision 25 on the Planet Fitness storefront glass.

Our team installed 3M™ Night Vision™ 25 window film along the entire storefront of the facility. This advanced sun control film helps reduce heat and glare while preserving a clean, natural look from the inside—so members enjoy a brighter, more comfortable workout environment without sacrificing visibility.

This upgrade supports:

• Improved indoor comfort
• Reduced glare on cardio and training floors
• A more consistent appearance across the entire glass frontage

Full storefront upgraded with 3M Night Vision 25 window film.

Complete Privacy for the Hydro Massage Room

For the Hydro Massage Room, Sunray® Window Films installed Black Opaque Window Film to create total visual privacy. This allows members to relax and recover without outside visibility, while maintaining a professional, modern appearance for the facility.

Removal of Old, Failing Window Film

As part of this project, our technicians also removed the existing, deteriorated window film prior to installation. Proper removal is critical for:

• Long-term adhesion
• Clear, distortion-free glass
• A professional, finished appearance

Why Health & Fitness Facilities Choose Sunray® Window Films

Commercial gyms and wellness facilities rely on high-performing glazing solutions to improve both comfort and member experience. At Sunray® Window Films, we provide:

• Sun control and energy-saving window films
• Safety and security window films

It’s Always a Sunny Day at Sunray ™

Skylights offer natural light and architectural appeal, but without solar control they can create temperature spikes, glare, and higher cooling costs. To solve the issue, we installed 3M Affinity 15, a high-performance solar control window film designed specifically for commercial buildings dealing with heat gain.

The Skylight Heat-Gain Challenge

The skylight at Building 5 was exposed to direct sun throughout the day. This resulted in:

• Noticeable temperature increases

• Hot spots beneath the skylight

• Discomfort for staff and visitors

• Increased load on cooling systems

Replacing the glass would have been costly and disruptive. 3M Affinity 15 offered the perfect solution.

Why 3M Affinity 15 Was the Ideal Choice

3M Affinity 15 is engineered for high-sun-exposure glass structures such as skylights, atriums, and large commercial windows. It provides:

⇒ Significant heat reduction
⇒ Lower glare levels
⇒ More consistent indoor temperatures
⇒ Reduced HVAC strain
⇒ Natural daylight retention without harsh brightness

The Cleveland Clinic now benefits from dramatically improved thermal comfort without replacing any glass.

Project Results

After installation, Cleveland Clinic Building 5 experienced:

• A substantial reduction in heat from the skylight

• A more comfortable space for employees and patients

• Reduced glare from direct overhead sunlight

• Lower cooling demand and improved HVAC efficiency

This project demonstrates how premium 3M window film offers powerful performance without replacing existing glass.

In a world obsessed with data and design precision, light control is the analog equivalent of fine-tuning your algorithm.
At Ken Ganley Volkswagen in Willoughby Hills, Ohio, the environment wasn’t the problem — the glare was.

So, Sunray® Window Films stepped in with a clean, intelligent solution.

Solyx Snow White Light Diffuser film softly disperses natural light inside the Ken Ganley Volkswagen showroom, creating a bright and comfortable environment.

Upper Window Lites: Solyx Snow White Light Diffuser

Think of this as a front-end filter for sunlight. It takes harsh, high-contrast illumination and transforms it into soft, evenly distributed light — no hotspots, no visual noise. The result? A showroom that feels curated, calm, and timelessly bright.

Lower Window Lites: 3M Affinity 15 Heat & Glare Reducing Film

The backend optimizer. It quietly handles the heavy processing — cutting solar heat, minimizing glare, and reducing UV exposure — all while keeping visibility sharp. Like an invisible performance upgrade for the building’s envelope.

Together, these layers create an optimized environment where aesthetics and performance coexist — much like code and creativity.

Sunray’s Operating Philosophy

We believe every building deserves a smarter interface with light.
As a certified 3M dealer and Female- and Minority-Owned Company, Sunray® Window Films has spent decades integrating human comfort, energy efficiency, and architectural beauty — all through the science of glass.

Because sometimes innovation doesn’t need another app — just the right kind of filter.

The Challenge: Glare & Heat Control

Large windows allow plenty of natural light, but they also invite unwanted heat and glare. For Resource Cleveland, this meant employee discomfort, higher cooling costs, and the need for a solution that wouldn’t change the appearance of their glass.

The Solution: 3M Prestige 20 & 70 Exterior Window Films

We installed a combination of 3M Prestige 20 Exterior and 3M Prestige 70 Exterior window films. Unlike traditional dark or reflective films, the Prestige Series offers cutting-edge technology with a sleek, non-reflective finish.

Resource Cleveland’s exterior windows upgraded with 3M Prestige 20 & 70 Exterior Window Films for a non-reflective look and improved comfort.

The Results: Clear Views, Cooler Interiors

The Sunray® Solution: Custom Window Film Installation

Our experts visited the dental office for a free on-site consultation, evaluating the building layout, sun exposure, and privacy concerns. After reviewing their needs, we recommended a two-part approach:

1. Light-Blocking Film for the Waiting Area
   To cut down on intense sunlight, we installed a frosted, opaque window film that reduces glare while maintaining a bright and inviting atmosphere. This creates a softer, more comfortable light for patients, improving their experience from the moment they walk in.
2. Reflective Privacy Film for Exam Suites
   For patient privacy, we applied a specialized reflective window film that allows staff and patients to see outside clearly while preventing visibility from the exterior. The film also reduces visible light and heat, making each treatment room cooler and more comfortable.

The Problem: Bird Collisions with Glass

Modern architecture often includes large, reflective glass windows that unfortunately pose a deadly threat to birds. Unable to distinguish reflections of sky and trees from the real thing, birds frequently fly into glass surfaces, resulting in injury or death. Universities and commercial buildings are increasingly recognizing this challenge as both an ecological and reputational concern.

The Solution: Bird Divert™ by Sunray® Window Films

To help combat this issue, we installed Bird Divert™, a highly effective UV-reflective window film designed specifically to prevent bird strikes. This advanced film is virtually invisible to the human eye but creates visible patterns birds can detect, allowing them to safely avoid the glass.

Benefits of Bird Divert™ include:

• Significant reduction in bird collisions
• Nearly invisible appearance for uninterrupted views
• UV-reflective technology that preserves natural lighting
• Eco-conscious design supporting LEED and green initiatives
• Ideal for educational, corporate, and healthcare facilities

Why Case Western Took Action

Case Western Reserve University continues to lead in sustainability and environmental innovation. By installing Bird Divert™ at Gund Hall, the university has taken a proactive step toward protecting wildlife and fostering a bird-friendly campus.

Partner with Sunray® Window Films

Whether you’re managing a university, office complex, healthcare building, or commercial space, bird strike prevention is a responsible—and now easily achievable—solution. Sunray® Window Films is your trusted installation partner for Bird Divert™ and other architectural film solutions in Northeast Ohio.
