Energy Glasses

Low-e glass is a type of energy-efficient glass designed to reduce the amount of heat transfer through windows while allowing natural light to enter a building. Low-emissivity glass works by reflecting some of the heat trying to pass through the glass, rather than absorbing it.

Emission factor

The term 'emissivity' refers to the ability of a material to emit radiant energy. In the case of low-e glass, the coating on the surface of the glass has a low emissivity, i.e. it reflects rather than absorbs radiant energy.

 

Low-e glass can be used in both residential and commercial buildings and can be applied to various types of windows, including double and triple glazed windows. By reducing the amount of heat transfer through windows, low-e glass can help improve energy efficiency and reduce heating and cooling costs.

Various types of coatings

There are several types of low-e glass coatings available, each with different levels of solar control and thermal insulation. Some low-e glass coatings are designed to block more solar radiation than others, which can help keep a building cooler in warm climates. Other coatings are designed to retain more heat in colder climates.

 

Overall, low-e glass is an effective way to improve the energy efficiency of buildings and reduce energy costs. However, the cost of low-e glass can be higher than standard glass, so it is important to weigh the benefits and costs when considering the use of low-e glass in a building.
