Save energy costs with solar block plus
A smoky-colored tint added to the raw acrylic of the block in its fabrication stage provides an appealing gray color to the block while also helping to prevent solar heat gain from entering the home. Molded through the exterior side of the block, the smoky gray tint makes the windows more energy efficient than regular glass or acrylic block windows. In a unique manufacturing process, the tint is only molded into the exterior half of the block - the side facing the sun when the window is installed. The clear interior block provides a decorative look in the home and offers privacy through its obscurity. Solar Block Plus windows meet ENERGY STAR® qualifications in the southern zone of the United States. "By including Solar Block Plus windows in a house, homeowners can help lower their overall energy costs," says Bruce Oellerich of Hy-Lite Products. "These blocks help reduce the amount of heat gain entering the home through the window, so they're ideal for use especially in the warmer southern states. "Solar Block Plus products complement a full-house window package that focuses on energy efficiency. Homeowners gain the decorative and privacy features of acrylic block windows without sacrificing energy efficiency." The clear wave Solar Block Plus blocks can be specified by homeowners in either operable or non-operable windows or exterior doorlight inserts. Each unit comes fully fabricated from the factory, so installation is fast and easy. Homeowners can order their custom-made Solar Block Plus products on-line at www.hy-lite.com through the company's popular "Build-AWindow" program. For more information, call 1-877- 712-4013.
