Warm Edge Technology
Warm Edge Technology is a revolutionary patented system that helps increase the overall thermal efficiency of sealed insulating glass units. At the heart of the system is the Intercept® spacer system featuring a unique, one-piece tin-plated, U-channel design that creates an effective thermal barrier to help reduce conducted heat loss through the window. Its sealed, one-piece design makes Intercept spacers stronger and better at retaining insulating gas than many conventional designs. Intercept spacers are so energy efficient that they keep the edges of the window glass warmer, so your home feels more comfortable in the winter.
Emax® High Performance Glass
For maximum energy efficiency, savings and comfort, ViWinTech offers optional Emax or Emax plus Glass. Emax utilizes a specially formulated invisible coating that is bonded to the interior surface of the insulating glass unit. This coating actually blocks long wave (heat) radiation by reflecting it back to its source. What does this mean to you? Energy savings. In the summer, the sun is high in the sky. Visible light from the sun strikes the earth and is converted to long wave heat radiation. Your home can actually absorb this heat radiation, even though the sun is not shining directly through the windows. Emax glass reflects this unwanted heat back outside, helping to reduce the load on your air conditioner, and also reduce your energy costs. Conversely, in the winter, the sun is low in the sky. Visible sunlight passes easily through the Emax glass and is converted to long wave heat radiation inside your home. As these heat waves move toward the outside, they strike the Emax glass, and are reflected back inside your home, keeping your home warmer, reducing your heating costs.
