TEMPERED GLASS
Tempered glass is one of two kinds of safety glass regularly used in applications in which standard glass could pose a potential danger. Tempered glass is four to five times stronger than standard glass and does not break intosharp shards when it fails. Manufactured through a process of extreme heating and rapid cooling, making it harder than normal glass and the go-to option when safety issues are front-and-centre. The added strength of tempered glass means it can withstand blows that would shatter other glass. And there’s less chance of injury if it breaks because fragments are smaller.
TINTED GLASS
The primary purpose of the tint is to reduce solar heat gain, but, it also reduces visible light transmission compared to Double-Glazed with Clear Glass or even other standard tinted glass products such as green and blue tints,all of which offer significantly higher visible light transmission. Bronze glass cuts down on the amount of glare and heat entering a building. The bronze coloration makes an especially dramatic statement for a glass facade and has become increasingly popular.
TRIPLE-GLAZED GLASS
Great Reasons to Choose Triple Pane Glass
SAVE ON ENERGY COST
Triple-glazed windows offer incredible energy efficiency. Triple-glazed windows utilize three panes of glass to dramatically reduce condensation and thermal transfer while insulating as much as 60% better than double-glazed windows.
* Study based on a double and triple pane window comparison under controlled circumstances featuring Super Spacer and Low E Glass with argon.
REDUCE NOISE & IMPROVE COMFORT
Because of the extra pane of glass, triple pane windows are naturally more soundproof. Another small feature in vinyl triple pane windows that contributes to reduced sound transmission, is the use of a soft spacer between glazings. The foam spacer, also sometimes referred to as SuperSpacer, not only improves the efficiency of your insulated glass units, it also helps reduce outside noise.
REDUCE CONDENSATION
Triple pane windows stand a better chance of reducing condensation. It’s all about dew point, the temperature for a given relative humidity at which airborne water vapor condenses on surfaces. When the surface temperature of the interior pane of the window is below the dew point, condensation on the glass surface will occur. The dew point depends on both temperature and relative humidity. The better the insulation value of the window, the higher the temperature of the interior glazing surface, the less likely vapor will condense or frost on the glass.
