Create building designs that maximize energy efficiency and occupant comfort through smarter fenestration specification.
If you provide Mermet® with the details of your specified glass and shade fabric, we can create a customized Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC) report tailored to your project.
Using the Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory’s WINDOW software, we calculate total window thermal performance by combining SHGC and Visible Light Transmission (VLT) to analyze how your chosen glass and fabric work together.
This data shows exactly how a shade will perform on a building, helping you select the right fabric for each application to enhance occupant comfort.
Remember, the glass is your first line of defense against the sun’s energy. By knowing its performance, you can clearly see how the fabric impacts the system, and how both layers work together for optimal results.
