The frame holds the glass, but the glass does the work. Every window we build starts with dual-pane insulated glass; the packages below build from there.
Two panes separated by a sealed air space. Standard on every window we build — the baseline, not an upgrade.
A microscopically thin metallic layer that reflects radiant heat back to its source. Keeps summer heat out and winter heat in without noticeably tinting the view.
Argon is denser than air and slows heat transfer across the sealed space between panes. Commonly paired with Low-E.
Obscure glass for bathrooms and street-facing openings. Tempered glass where building code requires it — near doors, in tubs and showers, and below a set height from the floor.
Every unit carries an NFRC label listing U-Factor and Solar Heat Gain Coefficient. Lower U-Factor means better insulation; lower SHGC means less solar heat coming through.
It depends on the exposure. We'll walk the house and tell you.
