The classic option, perfect for most kiwi homes
(Note: our double glazing range all reduce sound levels in your home. If stronger noise reduction is important, we can add a special acoustic laminate to your Low E glass. If privacy is important, we have tinted glass or can add obscured glass. Whatever your requirements are, we can tailor a solution for your home.)
BETTER HEAT RETENTION
Improving your window insulation reduces heat loss and solar gain, reducing your heating needs in winter and cooling requirements in summer. Better insulation makes it easier to keep temperatures constant, so your comfort level is increased.
SOLAR HEAT CONTROL
A lot of sunshine can start overheating your home, especially if you have large north, west or east facing windows. We have three solar control glass options to choose from, each with different benefits.
LESS CONDENSATION
Low E glazing increases the internal glass surface temperature, which reduces the likelihood of condensation on the inner glass surface. This means your home stays drier, which in turn makes for a healthier living environment.
SMALLER ENERGY BILLS
You will use less energy to heat and cool your home, providing energy savings over the course of a year.
ENVIRONMENTALLY FRIENDLY
Depending on your Low E glazing selection there is less reliance on heating and cooling, which means fewer energy resources are required to keep your home comfortable all year round.
FADING AND GLARE REDUCTION
Large areas of glass can let in too much light, creating glare. This can be reduced with Low E glass. Reducing glare can also help reduce fading on your furnishings. The Metro Solar control range provides a range of glass from clear aesthetic, through to tinted and reflective appearance.
WHICH METRO GLASS IS RIGHT FOR YOUR HOME?
Our Low E options ensure you can choose a glass that meets both your requirements and your budget.
