HEAT MIRROR TECHNOLOGY
Start saving money from day one...as you beautify your home
One of the most important decisions you face when you are replacing your old, inefficient windows, is which type of glass to use in your new window. Single pane? Double pane? Low-E? On and on the questions and options go. All confusion and doubt ends with Heat Mirror glass technology, the most superior, insulating glass in the world. There is no comparable glass product on the market today.
Heat Mirror technology achieves four major goals:
- Reduced energy costs
- Reduced noise levels
- Reduced fabric fading
- Effective condensation control
These windows literally pay for themselves in a few years, and then begin putting money back in your pocket.
Our vinyl windows, featuring Heat Mirror Technology block 95% of the sun's harmful ultraviolet rays. Bothersome outside noise is reduce by as much as 70%.
Consider this: R-Value is the most important aspect to consider when selecting glass for your windows. In general R-Value refers to the level of insulation provided by the glass. The higher the R-Value, the better the insulation. Or another way to look at it — maybe the most important way — is like this: As the R-Value rises, your home energy cost fall! With this in mind, the following sentence should have serious impact on your decision. The R-Value of standard insulating glass is around two. Our glass package of low-E glass and Heat Mirror technology can reach R-Value of up to 10, or five times that of standard glass.
One of the comments most often made is, “I like the sound of Heat Mirror technology, but how will this glass affect my view?” The answer" not at all! All of the beautiful, natural light you're used to will continue to illuminate your room. The revolutionary Heat Mirror film suspended between the panes of glass is transparent to the human eye. You'll still enjoy the same views you're accustomed to, just without the wasted energy, harmful UV rays and excessive outside noise.
