With a 7/8" insulating glass unit, ProSolar™ soft coat Low E glass and an Argon gas fill, the standard
features on Prism® by Simonton Platinum windows, create an energy-efficient product. To take your
Platinum windows to an even greater level of efficiency, the strategic features in our optional glass
packages will accomplish the task.
Specifically designed for all areas of the country, the Northern, North-Central, South-
Central and Southern glass packages meet ENERGY STAR guidelines in each climate
zone. With tailored Low E technology and spacer systems, each package provides the
energy-efficiency and value you expect from Prism® by Simonton.
Energy Tax Credit
ETC glass packages were created as prescribed by the 2009 American
Recovery & Reinvestment Act to meet the strict .30/.30 U-factor and
solar heat gain coefficient criteria. Each package combines advanced
features to achieve this level of energy-efficiency.
High Energy Efficiency
Featuring a 1" triple-pane insulating glass unit, NDX3P glass packages provide increased levels of
energy-efficiency and comfort. ProSolar™ soft coat Low E glass or Cardinal’s LoE-3-366® combined
with an Argon gas fill and Super Spacer® provide the next level of energy performance.
Superior Energy Efficiency
A 1" triple-pane insulating glass unit with a Krypton gas fill takes great energy-efficiency to a
superior level. Add Super Spacer,® two layers of ProSolar™ soft coat Low E glass or Cardinal’s
LoE-3-366® and the NDXR5* glass package achieves the ultimate in energy-efficiency and comfort.
Sound & Security
NDXSECURE features impact-resistant laminated glass that consists of a durable interlayer sand-
wiched between two layers of glass. Laminated glass offers increased safety, sound control, UV
protection and energy efficiency. Each package also has Super Spacer® and ProSolar™ soft coat
Low E glass with an Argon gas fill for increased energy efficiency.
Laminated glass consists of two panes of glass adhered to a clear, puncture-resistant, durable plastic interlayer. The strong interlayer will remain intact, even when struck with force.
Three unique spacer systems are utilized in the Prism® by Simonton glass pack-ages. The Intercept® spacer system offers a U-channel design that keeps glass warmer and flexes and contracts for reduced seal failure. The Supercept™ spacer utilizes the U-channel design, but is made of a stainless steel alloy that offers increased durability and thermal efficiency. The non-metallic foam Super Spacer® is non-conductive and increases energy efficiency by providing an airtight seal.
Cardinal’s LoE-3-366® is an advanced, spectrally selective glass that offers the ultimate in solar heat control, fade protection, visibility and energy savings. The 12-layer patented for-mula features three layers of silver for maximum insulation.
Argon gas is an odorless, colorless, non-toxic gas that is six times denser than air. When used to replace air between glass panes in insulating glass units, it helps reduce tempera-ture transfer. Even denser than Argon gas, Krypton gas maximizes energy efficiency and reduces temperature transfer even further.
A 1" triple-pane insulating glass unit consists of a single-strength pane of glass surrounded by two double-strength panes.

With reducing energy costs a top concern,
Prism® Platinum windows provide the
features that produce maximum efficiency
and can be ordered to meet the ENERGY
STAR 2010 criteria. The new ENERGY
STAR guidelines are regionally specific and
designed to improve energy performance
for all areas of the country. To ensure your
window and door qualifies, Simonton has
developed ENERGY STAR glass packages
for each climate zone – Northern, North-
Central, South-Central and Southern. These
glass packages utilize advanced Low E
technology that helps homeowners save
money on energy bills all year long and is
coupled with Argon gas (a harmless gas
found in the atmosphere that is denser
than air) that drastically reduces the
transfer of heat and cold. Low E also blocks
up to 84% of the ultraviolet rays, which can
fade carpets, draperies and artwork.
