At Eco Glass, we don’t just replace glass; we upgrade your windows with cutting-edge technology designed to enhance your comfort, reduce your energy bills, and improve your home’s performance. Understanding your glass options means making an informed choice for a more efficient and enjoyable living space.
We specialize in Insulated Glass Units (IGUs) – specially engineered glass panes with advanced features to maximize insulation, block harmful UV rays, and even reduce noise. Here’s a look at the core technologies we offer:
The Standard for Insulation
Our most common upgrade, double-glazed units consist of two panes of glass separated by a sealed airspace. This air pocket (often filled with inert gas, see below!) acts as an insulating barrier, significantly reducing heat transfer compared to single-pane windows.
Keeps your home warmer in winter and cooler in summer.
Less heat escaping means your HVAC system works less, saving you money.
Eliminates cold spots near windows, making your living spaces more consistent in temperature.
Maximum Insulation & Noise Reduction
Taking insulation to the next level, triple-glazed units feature three panes of glass with two insulating airspaces in between.
Provides an even greater barrier against heat loss, ideal for colder climates or rooms needing extra warmth.
The additional pane can offer a slight increase in security.
The extra pane and airspaces are highly effective at dampening external sounds, perfect for homes near busy roads, construction, or noisy environments. Enjoy more peace and quiet!
The Invisible Energy Saver
In many of our double and triple-glazed units, the space between the glass panes isn't just filled with air – it's filled with Argon gas. Argon is an inert, non-toxic gas that is denser than air.
Argon's density makes it a more effective insulator than air, further reducing heat transfer through the glass.
Contributes to lower U-values (a measure of heat loss), helping to keep your home's temperature more stable and bills lower.
Low-Emissivity (LoE) Coating
LoE coating is a microscopically thin, transparent metallic layer applied to the glass. It's designed to reflect specific wavelengths of light while allowing visible light to pass through. Think of it as a smart filter for your windows!
Protects your furniture, flooring, and artwork from fading by blocking damaging ultraviolet (UV) light.
LoE coatings come in different "levels" to suit various needs and climates:
In summer, it reflects solar heat out of your home, keeping it cooler. In winter, it reflects heat back inside, keeping your home warmer. This significantly reduces your reliance on heating and air conditioning.
Smart Windows
In many of our double and triple-glazed units, the space between the glass panes isn't just filled with air – it's filled with Argon gas. Argon is an inert, non-toxic gas that is denser than air.
Argon's density makes it a more effective insulator than air, further reducing heat transfer through the glass.
Ideal for colder climates where maximizing solar heat gain is beneficial. It's clear and maximizes winter warmth.
A balanced option, offering good solar control while maintaining excellent clarity. It's one of the most commonly used coatings, suitable for many orientations.
Offers strong solar control with a subtle reflective appearance. It's excellent for hot climates or windows facing direct, intense sunlight, maximizing UV and infrared reflection.
An interior surface coating that offers exceptional insulating performance, often combined with LoE 366 for ultimate energy efficiency.
Enhanced Safety & Durability
Tempered glass is a type of safety glass that has been specially treated (through heating and rapid cooling) to increase its strength. If it does break, it shatters into small, blunt granular pieces rather than sharp, jagged shards, significantly reducing the risk of injury.
Essential for areas where safety codes apply, such as patio doors, shower enclosures, or windows close to the floor.
More resistant to impacts and temperature changes than standard glass.
The Unsung Hero of IGU Performance
The spacer is the bar that separates the two (or three) panes of glass in an insulated glass unit, creating the sealed air or gas-filled space. A high-quality spacer is vital for preventing seal failure and maintaining the thermal integrity of your windows over time.
We primarily utilize robust aluminum spacers. These are designed with thermal breaks – a crucial feature that interrupts the path of heat transfer through the spacer itself.
A well-designed spacer, combined with a superior perimeter seal, prevents moisture from entering between the panes, eliminating unsightly fogging and ensuring the unit's longevity.
By minimizing heat transfer at the edges of the glass, the spacer contributes significantly to the overall energy performance of your insulated unit, helping keep your home comfortable and energy bills low.
Our chosen spacers offer excellent structural integrity and durability, ensuring the long-term performance of your Eco Glass replacement.
