Turf Melt

Anaheim California

I found out the hard way that Low E Energy Efficient Windows can create a magnifying effect and melt artificial turf among other things.  I had artificial turf installed about three months ago and I noticed lines forming in the turf.  I sent pictures to my artificial turf installer and they told me it looks like melting from the windows.  After extensive research there appears to be a lot written about this subject.  I even found an article in the LA Times about a Low E window melting the side view mirror off of a Toyota Prius.  My installer referred me to the manufacturer Global Syn Turf and they explained to me that Low E windows can melt artificial turf and it is not covered in the warranty.  They told me I needed to tint the windows or put an window awning to stop the sun reflection.  They referred me a company in Costa Mesa called Wintech Solutions, Inc. that came to my house and installed a very nice window tint that too the reflection away.   The owner Zoilo Centeno took great care of me and installed the window tint in one day and now I don't have any more sun reflection on my turf.   I want to thank everyone for there help with this issue.
