Low-e glass means the heat contact on the exterior side of the windows does not radiate inside the home.
These windows give the aesthetic of wooden frames without the high price. Aluminum is durable enough to prevent damage from storms or pests. These windows are also very energy efficient and will keep the room at a comfortable temperature regardless of the weather.
Because there is no awning or porch, this window is impact rated in the event of storm debris. Laminated glass means that the two panes of glass are bonded together with a vinyl or film layer. If something breaks the window, that layer holds it together rather than the glass shattering on the floor.
Visually, laminated glass is not noticeably different from other windowpanes. It’s a great way to make your home more durable without sacrificing the curbside appeal of a home.
