How Low-E Glass Can Benefit Your Office Complex

We’ve written extensively about how Low-E (low-emissivity) glass can help home owners in DFW. Of course, these same benefits will apply for commercial properties. Blocking over 70% of the UV and infrared rays entering the space matters even more when it comes to thousands and thousands of square feet of office space!

If you’re a business owner, you likely know that having an office can be a heavy expense. It’s not only the monthly rent that must be paid, but also things like utility bills. With Low-E glass, utility bills can be reduced by up to 30%. This is going to be a significant savings, especially in those summer months, where your employees will want to keep the air conditioning running to remain comfortable.

For modern offices, it’s clear that employees prefer well-lit, open spaces, in contrast to the closed off cubicles of decades prior. Is it possible to keep an area brightly lit while still saving on utilities? Yes, because although Low-E glass is blocking out those infrared and UV rays, it’s still letting in the visible spectrum of light, meaning that well-lit spaces don’t have to require sacrifices to energy efficiency.
