Gorell. The new EcoMaster double-insulating high-performance glass system incorporates two panes of glass, argon gas fill, and SolarControl Max low-E coating. SolarControl Max filters out more than 95% of the UV spectrum, the maker says, which translates into a high fade-protection factor in addition to low U-values and solar heat gain ratings. With seven high-performance low-E glass options, more than three-quarters of the maker’s replacement windows are tax credit-eligible. Window options including between-the-glass blinds, easy-cleaning glass, and internal grids let homeowners have energy efficiency and good looks. 724.465.1800. www.gorell.com.
