Benefits of Insulated Glass:1.Erergy Saving: very low U value (s1.0w/m2k)could be less if fled with inert gas.2.Noise reduction: could reduce 30 decibels and diminish 5 decibels more if the IG unit was flled with inner gas.3.Dew resistance: below- 70
The spacer materials can be aluminium spacer,stainless steel spacer,warm edge spacer,superspacer,TPS, the smaller thermal conducvity materials,the better U value,
Standard Spacer thickness is 12mm,16mm,18mm,but bigger space doesn’t mean better U value,Once space thickness is over 20mm,the U value will decrease slightly and even increase on the contrary.
Argon.Argon can replace the air between glass,This inert gas can decrease overall glass U value by 0.2W/M2.K through decrease the thermal conducvity.
Triple insulated glass is recommended to get better U value and SC value,this is the typical glass configuration for passive house glass.
