What is Low-E & Argon?
This optional upgrade is where insulating your home is taken to the next level! Low-E is a special coating applied to the window panes that reduces the U-Value and helps stop the loss of heat from your home, thereby improving thermal performance. It also helps limit possible fading to interior carpeting, furniture, and other materials. Argon is a non-toxic gas that is securely filled in between the panes of glass that serves the same purpose as the insulation in your house, limiting the loss of heat from your home. Low-E & Argon is an inexpensive upgrade that undoubtedly pays for itself by saving you money on your high energy bills, and providing added comfort for your family. In order for your windows to receive the ENERGY STAR qualification, you must add the feature of Low-E & Argon.
