Sol-R® glass contains a nearly invisible low-emissivity coating and argon gas that dramatically improve thermal efficiency (R or U Value) while reducing your home’s unwanted solar heat gain. It also blocks damaging UV rays, reducing the fading of furniture, flooring, and window coverings.
Sol-R® GAIN 179™ – HIGH SOLAR GAIN GLASSWhen the weather turns frigid, Sol-R® 179™ glass is the perfect cold remedy! Sol-R® 179™ provides excellent insulating capability by blocking heat loss to the outside and reflecting heat back into the room. It is the ideal glass for passive solar applications as it allows the winter sun’s heat to pass into the home and provide “free heat.” It also blocks 76% of the sun’s harmful UV rays. |
Sol-R® SHIELD 270™ – SOLAR CONTROL GLASSWhen it comes to solar control, the sun does not stand a chance against Sol-R 270™. It is the perfect glass for fighting the heat. Sol-R® 270™ reduces solar heat gain by 50% or more compared to ordinary glass in the summer and keeps homes cozy by blocking heat loss in the winter. It blocks 86% of the sun’s UV rays yet lets light stream in due to its exceptional clarity without a heavy bronze or smoke-colored tint to spoil the image. |
