Keeping homes comfortable
As summer is under way and we are already expereincing warmer temperatures, glazing can help reduce heat build up in sunny rooms.
Modern solar control glass differs from traditional anti-sun tinted glass types, by keeping a neutral transparent appearance. Special coatings that are applied to the glass surface within a glazing unit, reflect away direct radiated heat from the sun. These high performance coatings can block up to 65% of this heat. Standard double glazing typically reflects only 29%.
Solar control glass is perfect for southerly aspects and roof glazing, where direct sunlight can make rooms uncomfortable and lead to excessive heat build up in the home. Coupled with a laminate glass, reduction in furniture fade can also be achieved, making these glazing units multi-purpose.
These modern glass types are also thermally efficient and offer leading energy saving properties too.
They keep the home cooler in summer and warmer in winter.
