    The image is an artistic rendering intended to represent the reflected and transmitted color of the glass in real-use conditions. Actual results may vary.

    Guardian Glass North America has launched ClimaGuard 70 residential glass with a 0.24 U-factor to help homes manage solar heat in warmer months and provide thermal insulation in cooler months. The glass is part of Guardian Glass’ effort to deliver products that offer advanced coating solutions in anticipation of codes, such as ENERGY STAR Version 7.0 and International Energy Conservation Code 2021. With a visible light transmission of 69 percent and solar heat gain of 0.35, ClimaGuard 70 glass offers true views with bright neutrality. The glass, along with Guardian’s fourth-surface low-E coating, will help customers meet the ES v7 North-Central performance criteria with double pane Insulated Glass Units.
