Create building designs that maximize energy efficiency and occupant comfort through smarter fenestration specification.
By providing Mermet with a description of specified glass along with a specified Mermet shade fabric, we can create a customized complex glazing report for your project.
Complex glazing reports are generated by using a Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (LBNL) software called WINDOW. WINDOW, calculates total window thermal performance results for combined Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC) and Visible Light Transmission (VLT), analyzing both the glass and the fabric together.
The data included in a complex glazing report, explains how a shade will perform on a building. Therefore, by selecting the right shade fabric for each application, you are improving occupant comfort levels.
The glass in a window is the first line of defense to the sun’s energy. If you know the performance of the glass, you can understand the impact of the fabric and appreciate how each layer works together as a complete system.
