What is Low E and Argon Gas and why is it important for
windows?
Low-E stands for low emissivity and is a new advancement in
glass technology. Low E is composed of transparent layers of metal oxide, that is then
applied to the glass of the windows. In warmer temperatures, Low E helps to protect
you from excess heat and harmful ultraviolet rays from the sun, therefore
keeping your home cooler. In colder temperatures, the Low E coating allows heat
rays from the sun to pass through, helping to warm your home. Regardless of the
outside temperature, Low E glass helps reduce the costs needed to heat or cool
your home.
Argon gas is a colorless, odorless gas found in our
atmosphere. Argon gas is denser than air therefore, by replacing the air inside
of the sealed insulating glass window with Argon, the gas provides better
insulation for your home.
