Solar cool gray glass.

Solarcool gray glass solarcool gray glass provides a silvery aesthetic when glazed with the reflective coating on the outboard 1 surface and a dark gray aesthetic when glazed with the reflective coating on the inboard 2 surface. Bronze and gray tinted glass absorb as much as 50 of all sunlight but this varies with thickness. Measured against windows assembled with ordinary clear glass solarban 60 glass lessens solar heat gain by more than half. Solarcool gray glass has has a gray tint with an almost mirror like reflection on the reflective side.

Large windows with thick glass will be dark while small windows with thin glass will have little tint and. Five color combinations reduce reflectivity and glare and lower the solar heat gain coefficient by 20 percent compared with coated clear glass. Solargray glass may also be combined with sungate 400 glass in a one inch igu for improved solar heat. Solarcoo l solarbronz e glass solarcool solarbronze glass can be glazed with the reflective coating on the first 1 or second 2 surface.

Solarcool 2 gray glass is the solution when a true gray color is desired in a low reflectivity glass. The coating reduces energy consumption by reflecting solar heat gain and for improved performance it may be paired with insulated glass units and low e glass. Combined in a one inch insulating glass unit igu with clear glass solarcool glasses offer an expansive palette of appearance and performance options with solar heat gain coefficients. It does this with a special light and heat reflective bronze tint coating which is fused permanently to the outside surface of the glass.

Clear glass transmits as much as 90 of the solar energy in all the regions and is ineffective at controlling glare or solar heat gain. In extremely hot regions solar cool glass can help keep your area cooler. Solargray glass has been a popular choice for commercial structures because of its cool medium gray appearance and ability to control solar heat gain and glare. When the seasons turn cold the high insulating value of solarban 60 helps reduce furnace heat loss through windows by up to 50.

The glass has improved performance and higher exterior visible reflectivity with a metallic sheen when installed with the coating on the first surface. In a one inch insulating glass unit igu solargray glass provides visual light transmittance vlt of 40 percent. When the second surface faces outward solarcool adds reflectivity and deepens the hue of the tinted glass substrate. Crystalgray tinted float glass offers a more muted glass color than common gray and blue float glass.

The glass has improved performance higher exterior visible reflectivity and a slight bronze hue when installed with the. Tinted glass substrate color.
