Keeping homes warm when it’s cold outside
Our glass experts have improved the insulating value of ClimaGuard Low-E Window Glass by as much as 50% over standard clear window glass – resulting in significantly lower energy costs during heating. With ClimaGuard Low-E, even the coldest regions can enjoy the view with little or no impact on energy consumption.
Keeping cool when it’s hot outside
When using ClimaGuard Low-E Glass, solar heat gain and damaging radiation can be significantly reduced without sacrificing clear views and daylight. ClimaGuard Low-E blocks up to 50% more unwanted solar energy than standard clear glass, and up to 40% more than even dark tinted glass. As a result, air conditioning expenses are lowered while providing a more comfortable living environment. ClimaGuard Low-E also blocks nearly twice as much harmful radiation as clear glass, extending the life of woodwork, carpets and furnishings, while still allowing plenty of natural sunlight to brighten interior spaces.
Keeping homes comfortable in any climate
In mild climates or in climates that enjoy mild seasons, southern and western elevations can be exposed to significant unwanted solar heat gain. The result is a higher temperature in rooms that are exposed to the sun, while the rest of your home and the air outside remain at a comfortable level. ClimaGuard Low-E Glass greatly reduces this effect and helps maintain a uniform comfort level throughout your home.
