Simple Patented Design
The Power*e™ concept is simple. At its core, Power*e™ Glass is a proven industry standard double paned insulated glass unit. Its patented design uses a safe low-voltage electric current passed through the inside of the sealed unit to heat the room side glass pane to a warm temperature. By touching the glass pane, you can feel the warmth of the thermal barrier created by the Power*e™ Glass. However, the electric current flows safely and invisibly without wires across the metal coating on the other side of the glass pane where it cannot be touched.
Power*e™ Glass windows look like ordinary double paned windows and can be washed and treated like ordinary windows. They are sealed against moisture and have no moving parts to break or plumbing to leak. The Power*e™ demonstration unit above shows the electrical contacts along the vertical left and right edges of the window. However, typical window frames can cover or hide all of these internal electrical heating components.
Power*e™ Glass windows use no special gases and use only two glass panes to provide heat and insulation. Other "energy-efficient" windows use complex designs combining costly gases, three or more glass panes and/or plastic films to provide no heat and poorer insulation. Inevitably, these gases leak, and the additional glass panes and films increase the likelihood of failure.
Power*e™ Glass may be used in new construction or as part of building remodeling and can effectively turn windows into primary building heat sources. Its unique patented continuous glass/metal contact efficiently heats the glass without any significant electrical resistance. As a result, Power*e™ Glass uses less power than other systems.
Simplifying its installation and use, the Power*e™ Glass temperature can be controlled by conventional thermostats and other building climate control systems. Made to the customer’s specifications, Power*e™ Glass can be combined with clear, tinted, patterned, opaque or other glass and may be incorporated into industry standard wood, vinyl, fiberglass, metal frames or other custom enclosures.
