Energy-saving glass is suitable for all weather conditions

According to the US Department of Energy, windows are the main source of external heat entering the interior of a building. Therefore, the architects will select as many glass products as possible that have a high natural light transmission rate and help reduce the heating or cooling costs of the building, depending on the geographical location of the building.

The Low-E glass coating plays an important role in temperature regulation, while allowing a large amount of visible light to enter the interior of the building while still reducing the amount of UV and IR injection. Low-E glass contains a thin silver coating or other low-reflective material to reduce heat loss and contribute to building insulation. Or in hot climates, it can reflect heat and help cool down buildings.
