For Insulating Glass
Author : For Insulating Glass Date : 2015-02-26 11:34:59
    Do you remember single-pane windows? If so, you may recall how they could let cold air in and out of a home. They weren't the most energy efficient products.Thankfully, windows with insulated glass came along to make homes more comfortable and less costly to heat and cool. Because they are airtight, windows with insulated glass also help to reduce dust, pollen and outdoor noise from coming into your home. 
    Insulated Glass windows are also known as "Double Glazed windows" and "Double Pane windows". The primary benefit of Insulated Glass windows is energy efficiency in the form of lower heat penetration. The heat reduction translates to lower energy cost and a more comfortable setting in rooms with intense sunlight exposure. There is a secondary benefit in the form of noise reduction.
    Insulated glass can be described as two panes of glass separated by a spacer that seals air space. Insulated Glass windows are most commonly ordered with Low-Emissivity ("Low-E") glass that is coated with an energy efficient material designed to lower the amount of heat penetration. The coating can range from single to triple coating. Another common upgrade is to fill the air space with argon gas for increased energy efficiency.
 
(Learn how new windows can save you money.) A Unique Advantage
    All Lee & Cates insulated window units feature the EdgeTech SuperSpacer, a double-sealed foam spacer that can last four to five times longer than standard metal spacers. This helps the window maintain a high R-value (the rate at which the window loses heat).

    And if you like supporting the local economy, you’ll appreciate that all insulated glass windows are made in our state-of-the-art facility. Low-E Windows Mean Low Energy Costs for You--The special coatings that are applied to the outside of Low-E windows during the manufacturing process reduce the amount of solar heat that passes through the glass in order to keep your home cooler during the warmer months. That same coating applied to the interior side of the window reflects the heat you want in your home during the colder months.What does this mean for your home? Reliably comfortable temperatures year-round. By using quality insulated glass windows, you can reduce your energy costs by as much as 20%.
