Glazing Options
You can choose from a variety of different glazing upgrades, depending on your specific priorities.
Energy Performance
Energy Performance is the name given to Roofmaker’s standard glazing option. The glass offers outstanding U-values which can be as low as 0.6 W/m²k, depending on your chosen product. Energy Performance is ideal if your property is north or east-facing, as it will maximise available light and heat during the morning.
Acoustic Performance
Roofmaker’s Acoustic Performance glazing offers all of the benefits of Roofmaker’s standard glass, plus more effective insulation against outside noise caused by traffic and other factors. The improved noise reduction is achieved by using laminated panes, which are slightly thicker and spaced further apart.
Solar Performance
with G-values as low as 38%, Solar Performance glass has all the great features of roofmaker’s standard glass , plus a solar reflective coating to repel heat from the sun. Like Roofmakers standard glass, Solar Performance has low Ug-values to keep heat in. It also has low G-values to minimise solar gain. This means the glass will keep your room warmer in winter and cooler in summer.
Secure Performance
Roofmaker’s Secure Performance glazing uses their standard glazing composition with laminated glass. This makes it significantly more difficult for an intruder to break through. The toughened glass is primed with a plastic interlayer, which stops it from shattering and keeps it in one piece
