We like our tinted windows and have had tinting on our home windows since we lived in south Florida. Our home here in The Villages had the windows tinted and I didn't even realize they were tinted until we had window washers for the first time.

We have never had a problem with the tinting as far as any deterioration. I like the windows tinted because the tinting blocks out the UV rays and keeps our furniture and all the fabrics in the house protected from fading and damage. Another big benefit of the tinted windows is the glare in our home is cut down a great deal. I don't really know how energy efficient the tinting but I do believe that is another benefit.

Good luck to the OP with the removal of the tinting. Sorry to hear it has degraded.
