| Southwall’s Heat Mirror voted year’s best green building product Energy-efficient Heat Mirror insulating glass from Southwall Technologies, Inc., providing insulating values ranging from R-6 to R-20, won two coveted 2007 Product-of-the-Year awards in the categories of Glass & Glazing and Sustainable Design as voted by the readers of Archi-Tech magazine. Archi-Tech is read by more than 28,000 architects, systems integrators, and technology consultants who are responsible for specifying technology into commercial structures. Heat Mirror insulating glass contains from one to three lightweight, technologically advanced low emissivity and solar reflective films mounted inside of an insulating glass unit to create multiple insulating cavities. These cavities, when filled with heat-blocking gasses such as Argon or Krypton, save more energy and reduce more CO2 emissions than low-e insulating glass alone and provide a broad range of energy conservation performance to meet the requirements of today's commercial and residential green building projects. write your comments about the article :: © 2008 Construction News :: home page |
