By cutting the
transfer of heat from the warm to the cold side of the window,
DGU's can significantly cut loss of warmth in cold
weather
For even greater
performance, Low Emissivity (Low-E) glass can be incorporated into
DGU's. An invisible, metallic coating on the glass enhances its
insulating properties, providing greater energy efficiency and
comfort

By reducing heat
gain from hot outside air, DGU's can keep you cooler in
Summer
Heat gain through
windows in Summer depends on many factors, such as shading,
direction of window, outside temperature, even wind
speed.
Where windows are in
direct sun, or subject to high radiated heat, tinted (toned) or
reflective glass in an DGU can greatly reduce heat gain by in
effect shading the window.
Incorporating Low-E glass as the inside pane not only improves
performance but also helps retain warmth in Winter
