Insulation

Within the building fabric envelope glazing traditionally
provides the greatest heat loss of radiated heat to the
outside. This is obviously wasteful, and increases the
energy costs of heating the fabric of the building, plus
the Government have targets to significantly reduce carbon
savings by the year 2010.
This will gather momentum over
the next few years. |
 |
Glazing systems have been produced that incorporate a
low emissivity coating to the glass that assist in reflecting
radiated heat within a room back into the room, therefore
cutting the heat loss characteristics of traditional heating
systems.
That's okay but this type of glazing
does very little for other glass related problems such
as solar heat gain, solar glare, and ultraviolet transmission
|
| Within the LLumar® performance
film range there are films that have a similar low emissivity
coating, but have the added advantage of dealing successfully
with unwanted solar heat gain, glare and ultraviolet transmission.
For example LLumar® performance
film type VE35 SR CDF can provide the following performance
characteristics:
Reduces heat loss through the glass
by up to 30%.
Total Solar Energy Rejected 69%.
Glare Reduction 64%.
Blocks 99.5% Ultraviolet Transmission
Truly a film for "All Seasons"
