What is Low E Glass? An In-Depth Explanation

Low-E, which stands for low-emissivity, is glazing with a microscopically thin, translucent layer that reflects. Infinity from Marvin Windows provides an energy-efficient solution to your Denver home’s climate control needs. Featuring Low E Coatings on glass surfaces that reduce heat and light transmittance, our products meet ENERGY STAR® guidelines for climates nationwide, ensuring a dependable reduction in dependence on costly AC units or furnaces all year round.

When the temperature soars, ordinary window glass can’t handle the heat. And tinted glass spoils the view. Cardinal LowE³-366, however, has been specially formulated to reject the sun’s heat without affecting the view. It lets more light in and keeps more heat out. So your home stays cool and comfortable. Our patented LoE-366 coating provides the ultimate in performance of all our LoE products.

It’s also the one glass you can use to be compliant in every ENERGY STAR zone – in a double-pane window. Couple it with Lo?-i89^®, and you’re compliant in the North. Its low SHGC makes it compliant throughout the rest of the country as well. It’s the perfect glass wherever you live.
