Low-E-Plus Solar Control Glass. Cooler in Summer. Warm in Winter.
Low-E-Plus™ Solar Control glass provides all year round comfort. Creates a more comfortable space in conservatories and large glazed areas.
Enjoy your conservatory all year round with Low-E-Plus Solar Control glass
Low-E-Plus™ Solar Control Glass has a thermal insulation U-value of only 1.0. It incorporates advanced glazing technology and can be retrofitted into existing conservatory window frames. Low-E-Plus Solar Control glass helps to retain heat during the winter months yet is cooler in summer, so a comfortable indoor temperature is maintained all year round. Neutral in appearance, the low internal reflection reduces glare and gives a clearer external view.

What are the steps involved in a glazing upgrade?
Step 1
Heat escapes through old window glass leaving your home very cold
Step 2
Keep your existing window frames and remove the old glass
Step 3
Retrofit Low-E-Plus™ heat-retaining glass into the frames
Step 4
Low-E-Plus™ reflects heat back inside and reflects cold back out
Retrofit Low-E-Plus™ double glazing into your existing window frames and stop heat escaping
Energlaze Low-E-Plus™ glazing units have a low U-value of just 1.0 W/m2K. They can significantly reduce the heat-loss from your existing windows and be as effective as triple glazing when retrofitted into an existing double-glazed window frame.
Low-E-Plus™ can be retrofitted into any type of window frame: uPVC, timber or aluminium. It comes as standard in all our new uPVC windows.
A lower U-value = a more effective insulating material

Will changing my glass get rid of my condensation?
This is usually a ventilation problem and cannot be caused purely by the installation of heat-retaining double or triple glazing. By acting as a heat barrier and providing an inner pane which is considerably warmer than the outer pane, condensation may be reduced. For more information visit our condensation information page.
Can I upgrade just one window?
No. We recommend a minimum of half-of-house upgrade (usually 3 or 4 full windows) to get the full impact of the heat-retaining glass. For more information on this please feel free to contact us.
What does it cost to replace my glass with new heat-retaining glass from Energlaze?
Pricing can vary based on the project – that is why we offer a free no obligation survey and quote. Get expert advice from a glazing specialist and make your home as warm and comfortable as possible. Get a free quote here
Are the heat retaining coatings invisible and permanent?
Yes and yes. The coating is transparent and microscopic so you won’t notice them. And they are hermetically sealed during manufacture, making them durable and permanent. Get a free quote here
I have alarms on my windows - do I need do do anything beforehand?
Yes. If your alarm has sensors on the window or glass, these will need to be removed. In some instances, you will need to have your home security provider remove these for you. Energlaze fitters cannot remove them on the day of fitting. Failure to remove sensors will delay your fitting.
What happens to the old glass?
All debris is removed from site and recycled where possible. The fitting team will lay down dust sheets where they are working & clean up once they are finished.
