Looking for an option which allows you to save energy without make any change
in lifestyle while adding to the aesthetic appeal of your home insight? Then

pick the glass based on three initial factors – thermal conductivity, natural
light and solar heat gain.
Here we enlighten 5 types of glass that will aid you save
energy with adding appealing look to your home.
Single-Pane
These glasses work best with fixed windows. They are
economy, functional and sturdy. However, these glasses offer limited protection
against heat and cold.
Insulated Glass
Single pane window is now not so much in trend therefore we
have another options that’s more
energy-efficient as compare Single-Pane.
Double glazed window does exactly that – aid you save
energy. Double glazed window consists of two glass panes separated by an air
space. The space in between will contain gas, which stops the heat from flowing
out of the home.

good option for winter, you can also try out triple or even quadruple paned
window.
Tempered Glass
If you are worried that the regular glass will break easily
and imperil your kids and pets, then you should go with tempered glass.
Tempered glasses are heat-strengthened, which makes them up to four times
stronger than regular glasses. Even if the glass does break, it will crumble
rather than shatter in sharp shards.
Low Emissivity
Coatings
Low emissivity coating is yet another popular choice for
window covering. It is a form of micro layer that is applied to single side of
the glass. The layer works by suppressing the amount of heat transferred.
Laminated Glass
It is a kind of window where two glass panes are bonded
together with an interlayer. There are numerous options available in laminated
glasses ranging from clear and tinted to reflective and Low Emissivity. It
offers better insulation over regular glasses, has improved sound insulation
properties and also reduces the risk from broken glasses. It not just makes for
a great addition for your home, but also your vehicles.
