Glass Options
Thermal Insulation
Protection from outside temperatures.
Low E Coating is an applied metallic coating that provides added protection against harmful UV rays and keeps your home insulated against energy loss during all seasons. The layers of transparent silver allow the glass to reject the sun’s heat in the summer and reflect furnace heat back into your home in the winter.
Argon Gas is an inert, low moving gas that gives the best thermal performance possible. Replacing the air between the panes of a glass unit with Argon Gas, heat loss is prevented.
Low E and Argon Gas are standard on all KV Windows, Entrance Doors, and Patio Doors, creating the most balanced energy performance for both winter heating and summer cooling.
Cold Weather
Radiant heat is kept inside your home
during winter
Warm Weather
UV is reflected back out in
the summer.
