IGUs have many benefits, especially when you have a very large window like a storefront. Below are some examples of why these glass types are a good choice.
- Better Temperature Regulation IGUs are great insulators, and some reflect a decent amount of light away from the inside of the store. Plus, they provide a barrier to the outside temperatures. If your storefront window faces into the sun most of the day, then some types of IGUs, like low-E glass, are a big help in temperature reduction. In the end, you could use less energy to maintain your store’s temperature.
- Better Security Double- or triple-paned tempered glass adds more strength to your window and makes it more impact-resistant. Multiple panes are harder to break into, and they hold up well against damage in general.
- Better Soundproofing Because of their insulating properties, IGUs make an excellent choice if you want to isolate your business from outside noise. Your customers will likely notice the difference as soon as they walk inside. You can create the type of inside environment you desire, whether it is quiet conversations or calm music.
- Better Privacy Not only do IGUs cut back on noise, but you can also customize them to reduce visibility either outside or inside. For example, you can use coated glass so people can see out, but people outside can’t see inside. This choice would be ideal for a coffee shop and restaurant, for example.
- Better Versatility You have many options to customize your glass to achieve the effect you want for your business. IGUs offer a range of tint options and glass styles, all while they maintain their insulating properties.
