ENERGY-EFFICIENT GLAZING THAT DOESN’T TURN DARK IN THE AFTERNOON

Panelite’s ClearShade honeycomb glazing provides outstanding solar shading AND ample diffuse daylight.

 

Why does this matter?

 

Better performance over electrochromic glass: Most energy-saving facade glazing products control solar heat by reducing natural light – such as electrochromic glass, which turns dark in the afternoon, or shading devices which also block daylight at peak hours. ClearShade saves energy by reducing BOTH artificial lighting loads and HVAC loads, while providing high quality daylight and views for occupant health and productivity.

EXAMPLE THREE – HENRY MADDEN LIBRARY AT CSUF BY A.C. MARTIN

ClearShade provides high-quality daylight that delights library patrons. The architects deliberately chose the smallest radius of honeycomb core (4mm) to minimize views outward and to create an intimate, ethereal, focused atmosphere for reading and studying.
