GLASS SELECTION CHART






            Uw - U-value measures how well a product prevents heat from escaping the building in winter and entering the
            building in summer. The lower the U-value (Uw), the better the thermal efficiency

            SHGC - Solar Heat Gain Coefficient, measures how well a product blocks heat from the suns rays. SHGC is expressed
            as a number between 0 and 1. The lower the SHGC, the better a product is at blocking unwanted heat gain.

            Tvw - Visible Transmittance (Tvw) measures how much light comes through the window. Tvw is expressed as a
            number from 0 and 1. The higher the number, the more daylight will enter a room.
