Nowadays, modern energy-saving glasses (insulating glasses) are extremely efficient and true high-tech wonders. Energy-saving glasses (insulating glasses) are also known as insulating glasses. The effective window panes are characterized by an increased temperature between the individual window panes and thus give off a lot of warm air into the interior of the room. Filled with gas, coated with an innovative special coating and available with double or triple glazing, the energy-saving glasses offer the right solution for every requirement of building owners or modernizers.
How does insulating glass work?
In all insulating glasses, at least one pane is coated towards the space between the panes. The special heat protection layer is wafer-thin and neutral in color. It prevents the reflection of light on the glass surface. The light can pass through, but the warm heating air stays in the room. The layer is usually made of a metal oxide layer, but this can vary depending on the manufacturer. By applying the layer in the space between the panes, the layer cannot be damaged or scratched. The heat-reflecting precious metal layer significantly lowers the heat transfer coefficient and saves energy and money.
The space between the panes is also filled with a gas mixture. Usually inert argon or krypton is used. The inert gas filling increases the thermal insulation properties of the window. This means that the panes of insulating glass still feel comfortably warm outside, even in freezing sub-zero temperatures. In principle, this encloses a warm air cushion in the space and prevents the large temperature difference between the inner room air and the panes. This means that condensation and the formation of ice flowers are no longer possible. Depending on the desired energy standard of the house, double-glazed windows are sufficient. We will be happy to advise you and show you when you should use triple glazing.
