CLEAR GLASS & Low E
Low E (low emissivity) Argon gas-filled window glass offers exceptional energy efficiency and enhances indoor comfort by minimizing heat transfer.
This advanced glazing technology features a microscopically thin metallic coating that reflects heat back into your home during winter while keeping it cool in summer. When combined with Argon gas, an inert and non-toxic gas placed between the glass panes, it significantly reduces heat loss and improves insulation.
For homeowners in Barrie and Orillia, opting for Low E Argon gas-filled window glass means not only enhancing the aesthetic appeal of your home but also achieving potential energy savings on heating and cooling bills. This option is ideal for those looking to improve their home's energy efficiency without the expense of replacing the entire window system.
By choosing to replace only the glass instead of the window frame, you could save up to 60 percent on replacement costs. This cost-effective approach helps in maintaining the structural integrity of your windows while elevating their performance.
When considering window glass replacement, investing in Low E Argon gas-filled glass is a smart decision, ensuring your living spaces are comfortable year-round while reducing your environmental footprint
Clear Choice: The Hidden Costs of Non-Low-E Glass!
When glass lacks Low-E (low emissivity) gas, several impacts can occur, particularly in terms of energy efficiency, insulation, and overall comfort. Here are some key points to consider:
1. Reduced Energy Efficiency
Higher Energy Costs: Without Low-E gas, the glass allows more heat transfer, leading to increased heating and cooling costs. Homes may require more energy to maintain comfortable temperatures.
Increased Heat Loss/Gain: Standard glass can lose significant heat in the winter and gain excess heat in the summer, leading to an uncomfortable indoor climate.
2. Poor Insulation
Less Thermal Insulation: Low-E glass is designed to reflect heat back into the home during winter and keep heat out in summer. Without it, the glass provides inferior insulation, allowing more heat to escape or enter.
Condensation Issues: Increased heat transfer can result in condensation forming on the interior of the glass, which can lead to mold growth and damage to window frames.
3. UV Radiation Penetration
Higher UV Exposure: Low-E glass reduces the amount of ultraviolet (UV) radiation entering the home. Without it, UV rays can cause furniture, carpets, and artwork to fade over time.
4. Increased Glare
More Glare Indoors: Standard glass may not filter sunlight effectively, resulting in higher glare levels, which can be uncomfortable and affect visibility indoors.
5. Less Comfort
Temperature Variations: Homes with regular glass may experience more significant temperature variations near windows, making some areas uncomfortably warm or cold.
6. Increased Environmental Impact
Higher Carbon Footprint: Increased energy usage due to inefficient glass can lead to a larger carbon footprint, as more energy is required for heating and cooling.
