GLASS OPTIONS

85% of your window is glass. The type of glass package will impact a window’s overall performance. Increased energy efficiency is available through glass options that reduce energy and cooling costs. This increased efficiency provides for a more comfortable interior environment as well.

Low E Glass blocks most of the damaging ultraviolet rays without sacrificing clear views and daylight. UV light and solar heat is reflected off the window while visible light passes through. Your home stays warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer. Curtains, carpets and furniture stay beautiful for years to come.

Heat Mirror features a suspended coated film inside the insulated glass unit, creating a double cavity, triple glazing system, without the costs associated with triple glazing. Heat mirror offers up to 4 times the insulating efficiency of plain insulated glass while reducing outside noise and solar heat transmission, and increasing UV protection.

Tempered Glass offers homeowners added safety and security. Tempered Glass is up to 5 times stronger than regular glass and impossible to cut with a glass cutter. Tempered Glass crumbles into harmless pellets with blunt edges if broken for extra safety. Additionally, tempered glass is required in some instances to meet building code specifications.

Obscure Glass protects your interior privacy while still letting light in.
