As opposed to regular windows, Low-E glass comes with an invisible coating that prevents heat from escaping your home to the cold outside. This keeps you warm in winter and cool in summer. This kind of glass is simpler to maintain, and it's more resistant to condensation.

Pilkington Activ glass is self-cleaning and has a dual action coating to help remove dirt build-up from your glass conservatory. The exterior surface of this kind of glass is coated with a photocatalytic layer that reacts with sunlight's rays, causing it to break down and loosen dust particles from the glass. Moreover, this type of glass is coated with a hydrophobic layer, which makes it easy to clean by simply cleaning the glass with a hose.

This kind of glass can be used to create sun rooms, conservatories and other large areas in your home. Its energy-saving qualities can also reduce outside noise and create an indoor environment you can enjoy year-round.

Our ENERGY STAR (r) high-quality low emissivity glass comes in a variety of colours and patterns that match your existing decor. The ENERGY STAR rating is an indicator of energy efficiency that compares the performance of products in order to meet strict government criteria for energy efficient construction. This allows us to offer products with the lowest overall U-value (the rate at which heat escapes a building) and with lower shading coefficients.

Suncool(tm) Glass, Suncool

Pilkington Suncool(tm) glass helps minimise solar heat gain and manage glare, particularly in hot climates. Its coating is designed to reflect short wave solar radiation, while allowing the longer waves (generated by lighting, heating and the building's inhabitants) to pass through unimpeded. This effectively balances solar control with high levels of natural light.

The neutral blue SN 70/35 model offers superior solar protection and has low internal reflections and high light transmission, making it ideal for large areas. This allows the most amount of sunlight to enter buildings while decreasing the requirement for artificial lighting. This can result in energy savings and money saved on cooling and heating buildings throughout the year.

We used this glass to replace 380m2 of windowpanes at the Ridge Primary School and Gig Mill Primary Schools in Dudley, West Midlands. This included the assembly room office, entrance corridors and ICT Suites - along with the nursery, corridors, and restrooms. The new glass helped to keep the schools at a pleasant temperature, while also reducing costs for air conditioning and energy costs, which resulted in a better learning environment.

As a leading Maryland Sunroom contractor, we work with the best glass manufacturers to offer our customers top-quality products and services characterized by individualized solutions and durable finishes. We can install triple- or double-pane windows featuring Advanced Low-E and insulating argon between the panes that block 85% of the sun's ultraviolet radiation.

The BarrierXP TK2 Plus glass package includes two surfaces made of low-emissivity (Low-E) glass and argon gas, as well as the Intercept Warm-Edge Structural Foam Spacer System. The patent-pending U channel design of the Intercept Spacer minimizes thermal conduction and improves sealing longevity. This results in exceptional energy savings and makes your Maryland sunroom warm all year long.

Toughened Safety Glass

Toughened glass, also referred as tempered glass or safety glass is between four and five times stronger than normal glass of the same thickness. It is created by heating annealed glasses to high temperatures, then cooling them down quickly. This strengthens the structure and makes the glass more resistant to heat damage and impact. When broken, toughened glass fragments are small, blunt cubes, which are less likely to cause injury than sharp shards.

This method is suitable to improve existing windows and doors or creating new ones. This kind of glass is perfect for areas that require more durability or resistance to thermal stress, for instance conservatory repairers roofs, glass shower doors and splashbacks, as well as for tabletops and shelves in kitchens and bathrooms. It is also extensively used in commercial buildings as glass wall panels, defibrillator equipment and access doors, as well as stair balustrades.

It is essential to consider the type of glass used on the walls and masonry surrounding the new windows and doors. This can reduce the amount energy lost through the window and reduce the need for costly insulation.

Another benefit of using toughened glass is that it helps to reduce damp and condensation inside your home. This is because the glass is able to absorb the moisture from the air before it can escape through the frame and into the room.

Toughened glass can also be a good choice for your doors and windows if want to reduce the noise from outside that enters your home. This is because it makes an acoustic sound when broken, which is much less noisy than the shattering and cracking of normal glass.

Leaded Glass

Leaded glass is a timeless choice for enhancing the design of your conservatory door lock repairs. Its beauty accentuates the natural light, creating a warm space that can be enjoyed all year. But, it's important to keep in mind that these windows are fragile and require regular maintenance and repairs in order to stay looking beautiful.

Lamb Studios can restore your old leaded windows or design new ones to fit your office or home. We use a variety of materials to meet your particular needs and aesthetic preferences. For instance, our transparent panels let in plenty of light, while our double-glazed options that are insulated offer energy savings and also reduce noise.

When working with glass that is leaded, we begin by making an intricate pattern to guide the cutting of the individual pieces of glass. The glass is then cut using various tools, including a glass cutter as well as breaking or running pliers. The glass pieces will then be fitted into a lead come which is a metallic strip that holds the window in position. The lead came can be shaped to suit any design, and it is possible to add intricate details like beveled edges or patterns to the window.

The final product is then soldered together to create a sturdy, secure window. It is important to only make use of a solder that has a melting point similar to the alloy used in the lead glass and came when the window was originally designed. If you're not careful, you could ruin the delicate lead work and ruin the strength of the window.

Over time, your leaded glass can oxidize, so it's important to maintain the window by periodically applying patina oil. This will slow the process of oxidation and prevent it from causing damage to the window.

Laminated Glass

Laminated glass is a popular option for replacement conservatory doors windows as it provides security and safety in the home. It is made by gluing two glass panes using a plastic interlayer which could be polyvinyl butyral (PVB) or ethylene-vinyl acetate (EVA). This makes it harder to break and less likely to break into sharp pieces. It also provides an additional layer of protection against the UV rays that damage the sun. These can cause fade to interior furnishings and fabrics.

It is also stronger than normal annealed glass and has excellent sound-insulation properties. It comes in a variety of colors to match the interior design. Interlayers that are switchable can be added to make a panel transparent when it is turned off, and transparent when a small amount of current passes through it.

Laminated glass, similar to tempered glass is a durable choice that requires less maintenance. It is important to remember that moisture could cause the bonding agents within the interlayer to weaken. The chance of this happening is diminished by keeping the glass and interlayer clean, using only mild cleaning solvents and avoiding abrasions and excessive heating.

In contrast to tempered glass, which is treated with chemicals the laminated glass can be reused. This is done by placing the glass in an equipment that separates it from its inner film, which can be melted and then used in a different application. This is a more environmentally friendly alternative to throwing away the film and glass as waste. It is also safer than using denatured alcohol or explosive liquid to melt the laminated glass.
