A prefabricated unit made of two or more glass panes, which have been separated by an air gap and edge-sealed together.
What it does:
- Provides Insulation: Saves on heating and cooling by reducing air to air heat transfer
- Prevents Dew Condensation: The insulating effect of air layer makes it difficult for glass to become cold.
- Retards Sound Transmission: Insulating glass reduces sound transmission drastically.
- Pleasant Room Temperature: The lack of cold or warm droughts leads to pleasant internal environment.
- Increases strength: Glass can withstand wind load and gives high standard finish to the building.
Benefits:
- Helps to prevent heat loss in winter and heat gain in summer
- Provides safety against theft or burglary as it is difficult to break from outside
- Provides better sound insulation, so appropriate for buildings near crowded areas with lots of noise pollution
