Advantages of Triple Pane Windows

NuVista_TriplePaneWindow_3sm.jpgTriple pane windows with 2 coatings of SunStop and Argon gas is a standard feature in all NuVista Homes. But what does this all mean? Why these windows are so energy-efficient? Going over each component of the window will explain it all perfectly.

Triple Pane Windows

These windows are simply just that - three panes of glass. Ironically there are three main benefits of triple pane windows.

  1. NuVista_TriplePaneWindow_2sm.jpgCondensation Reduction In our cold and dry climate, triple pane insulating glass helps improve your relative humidity by almost double. This makes your home more comfortable.
  2. Noise Reduction Believe it or not, an extra panel of glass make a huge difference on the amount of unwanted noise that enters your home. Another benefit that makes your home quieter and more comfortable.
  3. Saves Heating Costs Triple pane windows are more effective than dual pane windows when it comes to reducing your heating costs. They are better at keeping the heat in and money in your pocket.

Sunstop

NuVista features 2 coatings of SunStop on each pane of glass. This is a Low-E coating which will decrease the amount of harmful UV rays that enter your home. Double the coatings mean double the protection.

Argon Gas

This inert and non-toxic gas fills the void between the panes of glass. This clear and ordourless gas decreases the tendency for the glass to collect frost on colder days and adds to the insulation quality of your windows. The combination of these three elements together creates a window product that can double your homes R-Value. The R-Value of a home is the amount of heat that is retained by the window. The higher the number the better the glass. NuVista_TriplePaneWindow_1sm.jpgTriple pane, two coatings of SunStop and Argon gas have a R-Value of 8.064 compared to Dual pane, one coating of SunStop and Argon gas which has value of 4.032. This makes your home more energy efficient and saves you money.
