Low emissivity (Low-E) refers to an object’s ability to absorb and reflect heat and light energy. “High-E” objects, like dark clothing, absorb heat, while “Low-E” objects, such as light-colored clothing, reflect heat and light. When it comes to glass, Low-E is a very thin metal and compound coating applied to the surface. There are two types of Low-E coatings: hard-coat and soft-coat. Hard-coat Low-E is bonded directly to the glass, making it difficult to remove. Soft-coat Low-E, on the other hand, offers a higher R-value, meaning it provides superior insulation compared to hard-coat.
