JELD-WEN Window Glass Options

There are many great window manufacturers in the United States that offer numerous lines of windows, materials, shapes and sizes. One of the top window manufacturer's we carry at Reflection Window & Doors is JELD-WEN.  The nice thing about carrying a line of replacement windows by this company is they extensive amount of windows they make.  They manufacturer casement, awning, double-hung, horizontal sliding, radius and geometric windows along with numerous patio doors.

Another great feature about JELD-WEN windows is the numerous glass options they offer for all of their replacement windows.  Here are the types of glass you can get in your new windows from JELD-WEN.

1.) Tinted Glass:
Tinted glass reduces glare and is ideal for areas that get direct sunlight. JELD-WEN offers clear, green, grey, bronze, reflective grey and reflected bronze tinted glass available for all of their windows.

2.) Tempered Glass:
Tempered glass is treated with heat so it is able to withstand greater pressure on its surface.  This type of glass will not shatter in to sharp pieces and comes in a variety of textures.  Tempered glass is mostly used on patio doors or windows that are installed near floor level like a bathroom.

3.) Textured Glass: 
Textured glass allows you to let light into an area while still maintaining your privacy.  JELD-WEN offers a wide range of textured glass which allows you to choose a pattern that fits the style of your room.  The most popular choices of textured glass is rain, obscure and glue chip.

4.) ENERGY STAR
JELD-WEN has partnered with energy star since 1998 and is a 2010 ENERGY STAR partner of the year in the US and in Canada in 2009.

5.) Neat Glass
The Neat glass option gives you natural cleaning convenience. By harnessing the sun's UV rays to loosen dirt from the glass, rainwater can easily rinse way the grime.  Neat glass does not require any manual cleaning.

6.) Preseve Protective Film
Preserve film is standard for all Siteline EX windows and patio doors. It is factory-applied to both the interior and exterior surfaces of the glass. This means the glass surfaces will be reliably protected from scrathes and debris.

7.) Low-E, LoE-366 and Low-E EC Insulating Glass
JELD-WEN high-performance Low-E insulating glass lowers energy costs, helps homes stay cooler in the summer and warmer in the winter, helps prevent fading of furniture and reduces condensation.

Their LoE-336, provides even more protection from the solar heat exchange and offers even more energy savings.

If you are looking for the most protection from sun and heat exchange, the Low-E EC is the optimal solution for ENERGY STAR.  The EC stands for "extra coating" to improve the replacement windows thermal performance. This window qualifies for the .30/.30 stimulus tax credit as well.

As you can see JELD-WEN offers great features in their glass.  If you are looking for Denver replacement windows, please contact Reflection Windows at 303-586-6477 or visit our website: Jeld-wen windows Denver.
