Thermal insulation glass
Did you know that much of the heat in your house is wasted? In an average home, one quarter
of the heat is lost through the walls, and as much as 40% through the windows.
AGC Flat Glass Europe's range of double glazing is called Thermobel, an assembly featuring two sheets
of glass separated by a space filled with dry air. This design keeps heat in your home,
allowing you to turn the heating down and save money.
Low-emissivity (low-e) glass has been around for several years now. Its secret is the
virtually invisible coating applied to one of the two sheets of glass. This coating lets the sun’s
rays through (translating into free heat) while reflecting heat in the room back inside so that
it does not escape forming a shield against the cold. As a result, low-e glass provides
twice as much insulation as ordinary double glazing. This allows you to install larger
windows without having to worry about the impact on your fuel bill - plus you'll feel comfortable
everywhere in the room, even right next to the windows.
