Advanced Energy SavingsFor most homeowners, lowering fuel costs for heating and cooling is a key motivation for purchasing new windows. Windows are roughly 80% glass, so it’s important to choose an energy-efficient glass system for your home and specific climate conditions. Gentek casement and awning windows are built with a dual-pane insulating glass unit with double-strength glass. Upgrading your windows with Low-E (lowemissivity) glass technology will further improve the overall energy efficiency. Low-E glass features a virtually clear, metallic coating that acts as a thermal mirror, reflecting radiant heat back into your home during winter and reducing unwanted solar energy in the summer. |
Gentek casement and awning windows are available with a variety of glass packages to let you customize your windows’ performance.
• BarrierXP combines insulating Low-E glass, argon gas and the Intercept Warm-Edge Spacer System.
• BarrierXP ThermD features insulating Low-E glass, argon gas and a Stainless Steel Intercept Warm-Edge Spacer System for even greater energy savings.
