With the exception of Elit Tradition 1+1 all Elitfönster's windows contain insulation glass units, ie two or three glass panes joined together with a distance profile between, either triple glazed units or in some cases double glazed units. You can also choose glass on most window types that will further improve the window's insulating ability (lower U-value) and thus save energy.  

 Elit Complete Alu can, for example as an option, be manufactured with U-value from 1.0 to 1.3. Default U-value at our retailers for Elit Complete Alu is 1.1.

Privacy glass is pleasant in some rooms. The most common location is in the bathroom, but in an urban area the need may be larger.   Privacy glass is available in the following row types:

• Marin, also known as raw glass. Default for privacy.
• Cotswold
• Etched

Ample glass in sunny situations, the heat indoors can quickly become difficult during the warm season of the year. Choosing a window with solar heat reduction glass can then be a good idea. 

We can offer solar control glass that lets in almost as much light as regular glass but blocks out almost two-thirds of the total solar heat. A solar control glass reduces the need for cooling and provides a more comfortable indoor climate. 

Solar control glass are available in the following types:

Elitfönster offers effective solutions for limiting the sound and noise from the outside, according to your needs. Silencing, also known as noise reduction, is achieved through the choice of glass, but also through adjustments to the window design.

Elit Complete Alu and Elit Complete Wood can also be fitted with sound laminated glass providing even more efficient silencing.
