Roof glazing from Clearview

“Self” Cleaning Glass has been used for a number of years now, this cutting edge product has a coating applied to the glass at the molten stage of the manufacturing process. Once the unit is complete and installed in the roof or window this coating activates itself by reacting to UV natural light, over time, this enables the coating to break down organic matter / dirt that finds its way onto the external surface. This same coating is also extremely smooth, so much so that any droplets of rain/ water cannot form on the glass they simply sheet off from the surface taking the broken down organic matter away at the same time.

It is well to note that this cutting edge product will still need manually cleaning periodically to take away any larger more stubborn deposits of various kinds. Cleaning should be done with warm soapy water using a non abrasive soft brush or cloth. Solvents or hard detergents should not be used. Rinsing should also mimic the effect of rain rather than a jet from a hose. Jet washers must not be used.

The crisp and sophisticated finish of a glass roof facilitates a clear outlook and also minimises the noise impact of rain and hail. Of course, none of these added benefits come at the expense of excellent thermal control and insulation.

The qualities of each glass featured by these three handy figures shown for each product:

U-Value – A measure of internal heat loss during cooler periods. The lower the number, the greater the insulation.

Solar Heat Reflection – This is the percentage of total solar energy (or heat from the sun) prevented from passing through the glass.

Light Transmission – This is the percentage of visible light directly transmitted through the glass.

If you want to maximise natural light and appreciate uninterrupted views in your glass roof conservatory, this glass is for you. Boasting 78% light transmission and an impressive U-value of 1.2, your room will retain its internal heat, keeping itself comfortably warm.

With a self-cleaning coating, its lower heat reflection allows you to capture warmth from the sun’s rays in cooler months.

Choose this glass for an appealing look afforded by its blue tint. It will enhance your view of the sky while also making your room feel light and bright.

It offers self-cleaning properties as well as solar control performance for a cooler living space at the height of the summer.

The blue tint of Clearview One and its enhanced performance will provide you with a unique combination of features to truly make a difference.

A U-value of 1.0, and the use of an ‘easy clean’ coating to reduce maintenance, go a long way to making your living space feel really special.

For homeowners whose properties may be overlooked, or who require total privacy in their living space without losing any light, Clearview Satin Privacy provides the ideal solution.

Still allowing 75% of natural light transmission, the opaque finish still affords maximum privacy for your home.

Energy saving is important, so most of our specialist roof glass products are combined with a high performance Low Emissivity glass.

Clear in appearance, this transparent coating reflects radiated heat from fires or radiators back into the room whilst at the same time allowing free heat and light from the sun (passive solar heat gain) to pass through the glass contributing to the overall energy efficiency of
your living space.

We also fill our roof units with argon gas to further increase the thermal performance and lower the overall ‘U’ value.
