Single Glazed: A cost effective glazing where thermal performance is not a primary concern.

Insulated Glass: Two pieces of annealed glass sealed to an air spacer creating an insulating air pocket. Thermal performance ("U" value) is approximately double that of single glazing.

Low 'E' Glass: A thin, virtually transparent metallic coating applied to the second surface of the insulated glass unit which selectively filters solar radiation. During the summer, Low 'E' glass reduces heat gain while it slows heat loss in the winter, providing year round comfort and performance while helping to reduce heating and cooling costs.

Argon Gas: An inert, non-toxic gas which can be sealed inside of an insulated glass unit. Argon gas has a much greater density than air, therefore is a better insulator, reducing heat transfer. When combined with Low 'E' glass, the result is the ultimate high performance glazing option.
 
 
 
NFRC Labeling
Different window manufacturers used to use different ways of testing and rating the performance of their windows and doors. That meant it was virtually impossible for consumers to make fair product comparisons.

Now, the National Fenestration Rating Council (NFRC) has made comparing different windows both accurate and simple. All types of doors and windows are rated according to the same testing standards and U-values are printed on the NFRC label. The lower the U-value, the higher the energy performance.

We think it is important for you to know the true energy efficiency of windows. We also think it's important to supply you with energy efficient products.
