At Argo Window Repair, we believe in providing our customers with comprehensive knowledge about the various types of glass available for windows and doors. Understanding the differences between annealed, low-e, tempered, and reflective glass can help you make informed decisions for your property.

Annealed Glass: The Standard Choice

  • Basics: Annealed glass is the basic form of glass after manufacturing, cooled slowly to relieve internal stresses.
  • Usage: Ideal for standard windows not subjected to high stress or temperatures.

Low-E Glass: Energy Efficiency Champion

  • Technology: Low-emissivity (low-e) glass is coated with a thin metallic layer that reflects heat while allowing light to pass through.
  • Benefits: Excellent for energy conservation, reducing heating and cooling costs in your property.

Tempered Glass: Safety and Strength

  • Process: Tempered glass is heat-treated to be stronger than standard annealed glass and shatters into small, blunt pieces if broken.
  • Application: Perfect for safety-critical areas like doors, bathrooms, and near the floor windows.

Reflective Glass: Privacy and Comfort

  • Features: Reflective glass is coated with a metallic layer that reflects sunlight, reducing glare and heat.
  • Advantages: Ideal for buildings in sunny climates, offering privacy during the day while keeping interiors cool.
