You'll enjoy greater security, sound control, safety, energy savings and UV protection with windows and doors that include the Armor Glass® Plus insulating system. This system actually is made up of three panes of glass. Two panes sandwich a tough polyvinyl butyral interlayer that gives Armor Glass Plus its remarkable properties for keeping out intruders, protecting against harmful UV rays and keeping out noise. A SolarControl Plus® low-emissivity coating on the third pane of glass and an argon gas-filled airspace provide superb energy efficiency. Security: Armor Glass Plus keeps out intruders, whereas alarm systems only let you know once an intruder has already broken into your home. Sound Control: No other insulating glass system deadens sound like Armor Glass Plus to keep your home peaceful and quiet. Safety: Armor Glass Plus complies with all the safety codes tempered glass meets, plus it meets Categories I and II of the Consumer Product Safety Code. UV Protection: The invisible polyvinyl butyral interlayer in Armor Glass Plus is a major reason this glass filters over 99 percent of the UV radiation spectrum that causes fading of carpeting, draperies and other home furnishings—yet still allows in the light that plants need to grow . Energy Savings: Armor Glass Plus windows and doors are ENERGY STAR® qualified, providing as much as four times the thermal performance of single-pane windows.

		SELECTING ENERGY-EFFICIENT WINDOWS The glass in the windows you purchase has everything to do with the energy cost savings and level of comfort you will experience with your new windows. Clear double-insulating glass is the minimum on Gorell windows and doors, but you need a Gorell high-performance Low-E glass system for a real difference in energy efficiency. To see how Gorell products perform with the various glass options, we encourage you to review the "Whole-Window" U-values of our products. These ratings are used by the National Fenestration Ratings Council (NFRC) to qualify windows for the ENERGY STAR® label. The lower the U-value rating, the more your new windows will lower your energy consumption. Not all options available on all products.
