Low-E2
Low-E Glass is for Low-Emissivity. The glass is coated on the inside of the outside pane with 2 microscopically thin, optically transparent layers of silver sandwiched between layers of anti-reflective metal oxide coatings. See your sales representative for more details. Low-E2 is virtually invisible to the naked eye.
Argon Gas
An odorless, colorless, harmless gaseous chemical element placed inside between the two panes of glass. Argon molecules are heavier than oxygen and thus move slower. Because they move slower they also transmit heat and cold slower; however, the best benefit for many is sound abatement; it's quieter.
Obscure Glass
Typically used for bathroom windows. It's frosted as not to see clearly in or out.
Colonial Grids
Gives the illusion of smaller window panes within a window. The grids are placed inside, between the two panes of glass, making it easy for cleaning
Full Screens
