What is Argon gas and why is it offered with the Low E glass?
Argon gas is a harmless, colorless and inert gas that further improves the thermal efficiency ofyour new construction or replacement window or door. Acadia provides argon gas whenever a contractor orders Low E glass. The argon also improves sound deadening because argon is a heavier gas and reduces sound transmission from outside your home. As a manufacturer, Acadia likes to use it because it is relatively inexpensive and readily available. Krypton gas is also available and perhaps better than Argon, but it is quite expensive.
