LoĒ²-272®
This high tech glass delivers year round comfort, whether it’s 20 below or 110 in the shade. During the winter,
LoE2 2-272® reflects heat back into the room, increasing insulating performance by 96%. In the summer, it rejects the sun’s heat and blocks 84% of damaging UV rays. Not only does this coating provide maximum efficiency to your home, but it helps protect your valued possessions from fading.
Tri-Pane Safe Vision™
Tri-Pane Safe Vision™ laminated glass is produced by bonding a combination of plastic vinyl layers and polyester film between two panes of glass pressed into a single sheet. The third pane of low-E coated glass completes the sealed unit. Laminated glass provides maximum safety from breakage, sound transmission and blocks 99% of damaging UV rays.
Triple Pane
Triple pane consists of two lites of Low-E coated glass with an interior glass substrate, which creates two insulating chambers. These chambers can be filled with either argon or krypton gas. Triple pane will provide maximum R-values, reduced sound transmission and 95% UV blockage all in one unit.

Argon Gas
An additional energy efficiency benefit available with any Low-E glass option. Argon gas is an inert gas that is 40% denser than air. This density will create greater resistance to the transfer of heat and cold through your windows and will increase the efficiency of your windows by 30%.
Krypton Gas
Krypton is denser than argon creating even greater resistance to energy transfer through your glass. Krypton performs best in smaller insulated air spaces. This is an ideal complement to the triple pane units creating higher R-values.
Easy Clean Glass
Easy to clean window glass just got better with Neat™ naturally clean glass. No manual activation required, just a little help from the sun. The titanium dioxide layer of Neat™ glass reacts chemically with the sun’s UV rays and causes organic materials that are on the glass to decompose. It works even on cloudy days, as 80% of UV radiation gets through cloud cover. Thus when it rains the decomposed dirt no longer clings to the glass and easily rinses away.

Bella Vista windows come standard with Super Spacer, the world’s only 100% polymer foam, No-metal Warm Edge spacing system. “Thermal efficiency through no presence of conductive metals” is Super Spacer’s hallmark. The edge of the insulating glass unit is indeed the most vulnerable to heat and cooling loss, condensation and frosting. Super Spacer’s NO-Metal formula blocks the heat escape path and provides one of the best thermal performances in the industry. The result is less condensation and the elimination of harmful mold on your windows.
