The AGP System® with Tinted Low-E Double Glazing
Complete your window system with APL frames, New Zealand's leading window and door solution Explore
Description

The AGP System® with Solux-E® + Tint or Solux-Ultra® + Tint is a factory-assembled double-glazed unit that combines a warm-edge ATS-Architectural Thermal Spacer®, argon gas, Low-E coating and body tinted substrate to create an airtight, durable insulating glass unit (IGU).

Introducing a Grey, Bronze or Green body tinted glass offers benefits such as reduced solar heat gain and glare, additional protection from damaging UV-rays which can cause fading and enhanced privacy.

For best overall window or door performance, pair The AGP System® with Solux-E® + Tint or Solux-Ultra® + Tint with thermally efficient frames such as APL's ThermalHeart+® available through the Vantage, Altherm & First manufacturer network.
