Why Low-E Glass Matters
Low-E (low-emissivity) glass is one of the most important features in today’s energy-efficient windows. In Austin — where heat, glare, and UV exposure are serious concerns — choosing the right Low-E option can make your home significantly more comfortable.
What Low-E Glass Does
Low-E coatings block infrared heat while allowing natural light through. They help keep your home cooler and warmer in winter. They also protect interior furniture and flooring from UV fading.
Common Low-E Options in Austin
Low-E 270:
A balanced option ideal for most Austin homes. It blocks heat while maintaining natural daylight.
Low-E 366:
Designed for stronger solar control. Perfect for west-facing windows or homes exposed to long hours of direct sunlight.

Which Low-E Should You Choose?
