Low-E—short for low emissivity—glass contains a special coating that helps reflect a significant amount of UV rays and heat away from your home.
Drafty windows and air infiltration take place when your windows reach their expiration date (they’re old) or if they were installed incorrectly. Fortunately, new windows will completely solve the problem—especially if they’re installed by a professional window installation company like AR Windows.
We use argon gas and because argon gas is denser than air, adding it to the glass unit in double-pane windows improves thermal insulation efficiency. Used in conjunction with a special low-E (short for low emissivity) glass coating, argon gas windows bring the temperature of the window closer to room temperature.
