Radiant heat warms you, not the air around you
|
|
Thanks to radiant heat, you feel warm when your household thermostat is set at as low as 60°F (16° C) - much the same way a skier skiing at high altitudes feels warm in lightweight clothing even when the temperature is near freezing. Temperature settings between 60°-64°F (16°-18° C) are usually quite sufficient to keep your home comfortably warm. To further harness the power of radiant energy, IQ GlasŪ is coated with reflective material that retains heat, preventing it from escaping to the outdoors – a problem typical of conventional windows.
Traditional systems function by forcing hot air into a room full of cold air: the warm air rises, leaving cold air near the bottom where the heat is needed most. Radiant heat, however, warms you, not the air around you. The result is a dramatic improvement in insulation and energy conservation, making IQ GlasŪ an extremely economic solution for rooms with high ceilings and ceilings of varying heights.

With IQ GlasŪ, you feel warm within minutes of turning the system on. The immediacy of the sensation results from the efficiency of the radiant heat process. No need to wait for forced air from a conventional heating system to fill the room. No more dry skin or chapped lips - and your windowpane feels pleasantly warm to the touch.
Completely maintenance free, IQ GlasŪ is a must for anyone who desires comfort and luxury.

Aesthetics

|
IQ GlasŪ completely eliminates condensation – a major benefit for bathrooms, kitchens, indoor swimming pools and other areas in your home that are subject to moisture damage. Although IQ GlasŪ uses electricity as a source of energy, the cables are concealed entirely in the window frames – never detracting from the beauty of your interior.

Security
|
|
Manufactured through an exclusive process, our tempered, secure glazing is five times stronger than traditional glazing. In the event that the glass breaks, it fractures into distinct fragments – immediately interrupting the coating’s electrical activity. The electrical components of the system are out-of-sight and completely unreachable for manipulation.
Finally, the outer windowpane of IQ GlasŪ can be connected to your home security system. Functioning as an invisible shield, the system alerts you before a burglar can enter your home.

Health

IQ GlasŪ reduces the severity of a number of health problems associated with convection heating systems. According to Scandinavian doctor Mats Wolgast, drafts and the cold emissions of windowpanes cause numerous ailments, “Headaches, neck pains, shoulder pains, and arthritis … can be caused by the cold emission of the window panes and cold drafts.” IQ GlasŪ eliminates these problems because it eliminates the drafts and cold corners that create them. Because the absence of convection currents decreases the amount of dust circulating in the air, IQ GlasŪ can greatly alleviate allergy and asthma symptoms. Finally, IQ GlasŪ filters harmful ultraviolet light – enabling you to enjoy the sun’s light and heat without subjecting yourself to its harmful effects.
