| Energy
Efficient...
The Acadia window offers
3/4" LoE² insulated glass technology in all
insulated glass units. LoE² insulated glass is
the ultimate choice for energy efficiency and resistance
to condensation.
Warmer inside glass temperature means
higher humidity may be achieved. Higher humidity retains
heat better and provides more comfort at lower temperature
settings, reducing fuel costs. 3/4" LoE² insulated
glass consists of two panes of glass separated by a
continuous plated steel spacer. This flexible spacer
is permanently bonded to the glass by a durable hot-melt
butyl sealant where it's not visible. Warm edge glazing
is not only energy efficient, it's also the best performing
for longest life. |
