Many homeowners mistakenly believe that insulated glass inherently provides sound and heat insulation. In reality, the gas filling the cavity and the glass configuration are the key determining factors.

 Insulated Glass (1)

In a street-facing residence in Shanghai, ordinary insulated glass still allowed clear transmission of traffic noise. After replacing it with argon-filled double silver Low-E insulated glass, noise and heat significantly decreased.

 Insulated Glass (3)

Insulated glass is suitable for street-facing residences, high-rise balconies, and sunrooms, but needs must be clearly defined: For sound insulation, the glass thickness difference and airtightness are crucial; for heat insulation, the Low-E film layer and the width of the cavity are more critical.
