HEAT INSULATION
A special low-emissivity (low-E) coating of selective glass does not let heat out of
premises, but lets in solar heat radiation. This additional energy enables reduced
heating expenses during cold season. This is the best glass choice for windows in
dwelling houses. The coating is usually on the third surface of double glass unit.
