Home Sunrooms in Atlanta, Georgia & Beyond: Ask FDR about the Latest in Energy Efficient Glass Technology

The most striking feature of home sunrooms is the way they allow sunlight to pour into your home. As glorious as this feature is, a home sunroom may quickly cause your home to become an energy hog if it is not built using the latest technology in energy efficient windows. For southern climates such as the one we have in the Atlanta, Georgia area, a sunroom design using energy efficient glass is extremely important for the comfort of your home and the money you will spend on your electric bill. Thankfully, Factory Direct Remodeling has built thousands of energy efficient home sunrooms in greater Atlanta, Georgia and we can help you build a sunroom with the latest and greatest materials.

For example, we offer home sunrooms manufactured with Metals USA Building Products. These home sunrooms incorporate the unparalleled power of Cardinal LoE2-270 (pronounced “Low E squared 270”) glass. Whether a sunroom addition is located in Atlanta, Georgia or anywhere else in the country, Cardinal LoE2-270 glass has been proven to reduce solar heat gain by 50 percent or more when compared to ordinary glass. LoE2-270 glass is also transparent, allowing home sunrooms in the south to experience the ultimate light visibility without the need for glass tinting.

The transparent coating on Cardinal LoE2-270 glass blocks 86 percent of the sun’s infrared heat as well as 86 percent of the sun’s harmful ultraviolet rays. When this glass is used to build home sunrooms, it allows inhabitants to enjoy incoming light and views without the need for dark glass films commonly seen in the Atlanta, Georgia area and other hot climates. Let’s face it; home sunrooms simply look better when the windows are clear instead of smoky, colored, or bronzed. Owners of home sunrooms with Cardinal LoE2-270 glass also benefit from the fact that their sunroom furnishings, flooring, and other possessions will not become faded or damaged by the sun’s radiation.

Home sunrooms with Cardinal LoE2-270 glass not only keep heat outside during the summer, but this glass also holds heat inside your sunroom during the winter. In multiple tests, Cardinal LoE2-270 glass performed much better than clear single-pane, clear double-pane, and even ordinary Low E glass. For instance, when it is below freezing outside and the temperature of clear single-pane glass drops to zero degrees, the center of Cardinal LoE2-270 glass under the same conditions is a toasty 52 degrees.
