Solar control

Solar control low-emissivity glass provides an excellent balance between the amount of penetrating sunlight (TL) and the amount of solar heat entering the home (Te).

The cavity side (#2) of the glass surface on the outside is covered with a selective metal coating to accommodate the surplus heat from the sun.

It is strongly recommended that this type of glass is applied to south-facing façades using large expanses of glass.

Advantages:

• restricts heat from the sun
• limits the use of air conditioning
• great savings on energy costs
• benefits the environment due to reduced CO2emissions
• optimum use of daylight
• many aesthetic possibilities.
