Unparalleled Thermal Efficiency
Whole Window U Rating: As Low As 0.11 Operable & 0.13 Fixed
Average Windows: Typically 0.3 to 0.5 (higher heat transfer, less efficient).
- Provides exceptional insulation, minimizing heat transfer from the external environment into the building.
- Reduces cooling loads significantly, leading to lower energy consumption for air conditioning in extreme heat.
- More efficient than walls.
Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC): 0.13
Average Windows: Around 0.3 to 0.6 (less effective at reducing solar heat).
- Prevents solar heat from penetrating the glass, maintaining comfortable indoor temperatures even during peak sunlight hours.
Substantial Energy Savings
Estimated:
- In buildings with high cooling loads, savings could range up to 30% or more on cooling-related costs.
- Reduced reliance on air conditioning translates to significant operational cost savings for large buildings overtime.
Enhanced Indoor Comfort
- Keeps interior spaces cooler and more consistent in temperature, improving comfort for occupants and visitors.
- Eliminates hot spots near windows, ensuring uniform climate control.
Durability and Long-Term Value
- Resistance to extreme heat, UV radiation, and weathering.
- Long-lasting performance with minimal maintenance required.
Environmental Impact & Considerations
- Reduced Carbon Footprint: By lowering energy consumption, these windows help decrease the building’s overall CO2 emissions.
- Aligns with Sustainability Goals and efforts to combat climate change.
- Potential tax or incentive benefits for utilizing energy-efficient materials in construction.
More Benefits:
Noise Reduction
- Triple and Quadruple-pane glass technology provides excellent soundproofing, blocking out noise pollution in urban areas.
Compliance and Certifications
- Meets or exceeds international energy efficiency standards, ensuring eligibility for green building certifications like LEED or Estidama in Dubai.
