Energy glazing is designed in such a way that it improves the thermal performance of buildings. They help reduce the amount of heat transfer through the window, keeping buildings cooler in summer and warmer in winter. This helps reduce the amount of energy required for heating and cooling, resulting in lower energy costs and reduced greenhouse gas emissions. Examples of energy-efficient glazing include low-tension coatings, which reflect heat back into a room, and insulated glass units, which have multiple layers of glass separated by a separator to slow down temperature transfer.
Anti-noise glazing is specially designed to reduce the transmission of sound through windows. They are usually used in buildings where there is a high level of external noise, such as near airports, motorways or busy roads. There are different types of glazing that are responsible for controlling noise and can be used depending on the situation and the level of noise reduction required. It is worth noting that the thickness of the glass, the size of the air gap and the number of panes used will affect the level of sound insulation provided.
Moisture control with energy glazing can be achieved by using certain types of glass or coatings designed to control the amount of moisture that can pass through the glass. It is worth noting that the effectiveness of any solution will depend on the environmental conditions and the design of the building. It is important to consult a professional to determine the best solution for a particular application. Pap Safety Glass provides advanced moisture mitigation solutions to meet every need for every situation.
