AGC Glass Co. North America has introduced Comfort E-PS Energy-Efficient Low-E Glass. This new low-emissivity, energy-efficient glass meets ENERGY STAR requirements for the northern region of the United States and all zones in Canada, making it ideal for use in colder climates.
New Comfort E-PS has a solar heat gain coefficient (SHGC) of 0.73 – the highest level of any glass available on the market. The technology in Comfort E-PS allows high levels of free solar heat from the sun while its thermal insulating properties retain heat and keep cold air outside.
Comfort E-PS pyrolytic (hard-coat) glass is recommended for use in condominiums and apartments, but it can also be utilized in select commercial applications. Featuring a colorless, neutral appearance, the product is a versatile choice for all types of architectural styles.
The high thermal insulating value of Comfort E-PS glass keeps the inside surface of the window glass warmer. This warmer surface minimizes that cold, drafty feeling caused by cold glass surfaces and creates a cozier, more comfortable environment.
