Vacuum Glazing: The Ultimate Choice for Keeping Your Home Warm
Your home’s windows play a crucial role in maintaining comfort during extreme weather. Traditionally, air, argon or krypton are the major options filled between the glass panes for home windows. However, vacuum-insulated glazing (VIG) is revolutionizing the industry.
What Is Vacuum-Insulated Glazing?
VIG involves insulating windows with a vacuum-sealed layer instead of air, argon or Krypton. This creates a superior barrier. Unlike traditional IGU windows, VIG uses a flexible seal and grid-like pillars within the gap. When combined with low-emissivity (low-E) glass coating, VIG maintains consistent room temperatures by minimizing heat transfer.
Take LandVac vacuum glazing for example, a standard 8mm VIG can get a u-value as low as 0.4.
Benefits of Vacuum Insulation Glazing:
- Enhanced Thermal Efficiency: VIG prevents heat and sound from crossing panes, achieving an R-value of 10—ideal for cold winters and hot summers.
- Lighter and Thinner: VIG is sleeker and more visually appealing than traditional alternatives.
- Durability: It lasts as long as or longer than air or argon-insulated windows.
- No Condensation: The lack of air eliminates condensation issues.
- Better Sound Insulation: Enjoy a quieter indoor environment.
- Upgrade to VIG for energy efficiency, comfort, and aesthetics!
