Low - Emissivity (Low-E) glass usually forms the inner pane of a double glazed unit. and allows less heat to escape through windows than ordinary glass. The special Low E energy saving coating lets the sun's rays through, but reflects heat from fires and radiators back into the building. Heat which ordinary double glazing allows to escape.
Low - emission glass (Low-E) is a clear glass, it has a microscopically-thin coating of metal oxide. This allows the sun's heat and light to pass through the glass into the building. At the same time it reflects heat into the room. Windows glazed using Low - Emissivity glass significantly helps in reducing energy consumption and CO2 emissions.
