Reduces heat loss more effectively than traditional low-E coatings.
Free heat from the sun passes easily through the glass helping to warm your home.
Reduced need for heating helps to save energy and protect the environment whilst saving you money on heating bills.
improved thermal insulation means fewer cold spots and drafts near windows and doors.
The inner surface of the glass stays warmer
Neutral Plus Sealed Units incorporating Planitherm Total+ have a transparent metallic coating that reflects heat from radiators or fires back into the room, rather than allowing it to escape through the windows.
At the same time it allows free heat and light from the sun (known as passive solar heat gain) to pass through the glass, warming your home and further contributing to the energy efficiency of your windows.
Unlike traditional low-E coatings that suffer from an unsightly yellow tint, Neutral Plus looks very clear. This means your curtains or Georgian Bars will not look dirty or discoloured.
Less tint also means more light can enter the room, making it more comfortable and luminous.
Neutral Plus does not suffer from the unsightly haze commonly associated with traditional low-E products.
