SoftLite Windows offers several types of window glass packages tailored for the best performance in your climate region, helping you stay comfortable and save money on energy costs.

Window glass packages encompass more than the window glass types alone. Let’s dive into the factors that affect window glass performance.

First is the strength of the glass. SoftLite offers single-strength, double-strength, heavy-duty, and other glass options with varying resistance to wind and impacts.

Second is the number of panes of glass. Additional panes of glass provide more insulation against outside temperatures. SoftLite offers both doubl-e and triple-pane options.

Third is the coating on the glass. Low-E coating minimizes solar heat entering your home. SoftLite offers varying levels of Low-E coatings for additional protection against solar heat, depending on your climate region. Different coatings are also available on the various glass surfaces to meet the needs of the different climate zones. 

Fourth is the fill between the glass panes. SoftLite uses argon gas because it is denser than air, which allows it to provide additional insulation.

Fifth is the spacer between the glass panes. The spacer can conduct heat between the glass panes, SoftLite offers packages with stainless steel spacers or Super Spacers in areas for maximum performance.

All of these factors help SoftLite offer an array of products that meet ENERGY STAR 7.0 in the all four climate zones and Most Efficient criteria for federal tax credits. Visit www.soft-lite.com to learn more about our glass packages by product line or to find a dealer near you.
