Atlanta Windows - Johns CreekNot All Glass is Created Equal Vinyl Replacement Windows

Glass: An inorganic, amorphous substance, usually transparent, composed of silica (sand), soda (sodium carbonate), and lime (calcium carbonate) with small quantities of other materials.  The space between the layers of glass is filled with a gas or combination of gasses, which is then sealed in place, creating a sealed insulated glazing unit. Though there are a number of gasses used (such as Argon, Krypton, Xenon, and others), and each window manufacturer may have its own proprietary formula, all are chosen for the increased ability of the gas (compared to normal air) to insulate the window.

In addition to the gas fill, window glass may be treated to further increase the energy efficiency of the window. There have been significant technological developments involving low-emissivity (low-E) coatings on the glass. There are many glass products available with low-E coatings, which are typically used with multiple-pane insulating glass units.  Here is a helpful link to describe Anatomy of Windows.
