Glass and Screens
Glass and screens double as windows and doors and are utilized in home improvements for their array of functional and decorative attributes. Striking screens are employed in indoor remodeling projects to divide large spaces into different zones without losing the spacious appeal of the room. Elegant shower and bath glass screens are installed in bathrooms as ornamental features that further contain water within shower/bath enclosures.

Low-emissivity or low-e glazing introduces light into the home while blocking longer-wave radiant heat and ultraviolet rays. Low-e window glass will maintain a cool indoor environment on hot days and prevent heat escape on cold days.

Glass bath and shower screens transform bathrooms into luxurious home spas and visually enlarge the space at hand. Traditional glass contains iron molecules that reflect a minor green tint when looked through the screen. Alternatively expensive low iron screens are constructed from clear glass with no tint Low iron glass lets in light and visually expands floor space. Shower and bath screens need to be cleaned on a regular basis to prevent the formation of moisture and mildew spots.
