Why LoĒ-340 Glass is Best for the Region
LoĒ-340 Sun Protection Glass is perfect for Florida and the Gulf Coast states because of its unprecedented design and superior performance. It provides optimal year-round comfort when installed in homes located along the sunniest coast. LoĒ-340 has an extremely low Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC) to reduce oppressive solar heat gain without compromising clear sky views. Going one step further, this glass's top solar control minimizes glare and almost eliminates fading in fabrics. Combine all that with a low U-Factor that prevents heat loss in the cooler months, and LoĒ-340 Sun Protection Glass stands out as the truly superior glass.
