The Four Types of Window Glass You Need to Know About

Before you can even think about shades of window tint, you need to figure out which type of window glass you want to choose for your home.
1. Dual Pane: Two panes separated by metal spacers at the edges and air in the center. Dual pane windows provide noise reduction and energy-efficiency.
2. Hurricane-Resistant: This reinforced glass features two panes surrounded by a tough fiberglass core. Hurricane-Resistant windows come in frosted, stained glass, textured and other decorative styles.
3. Low Emissivity: Also called Low-E, these windows will keep your house warm during the winter months and cool during the summer months. Infra-red radiation is reflected by a metallic oxide coating or thin, transparent metal.
4. Decorative: Styles include textured, stained glass, frosted and more.
