Windows get a large part their energy efficiency from low-emittance (low-e) coatings on the panes of glass. These coatings lower the amount of heat transferred through the window.
Triple pane windows are designed with an interior, middle, and exterior pane of glass. This means Challenger Series windows have an additional pane that has low-e coatings, which are crucial to keeping your home at a comfortable temperature.
The extra pane of glass also creates a second air chamber in the window. This chamber is filled with Krypton gas, which greatly adds to the energy efficiency of the Challenger Series windows. This keeps the thermal energy you produce indoors where it belongs- and not heating up the air outside your home!!
Challenger Series triple pane windows also provide better insulation against sound or noise from outside. The additional pane also cuts down on condensation which generates on the inside of double pane windows. |
