Window Film Performance
The lower the Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC), the less solar heat is transmitted. The SHGC, or g-value in soume countries, is the fraction of incident solar radiation that passes through a window. SHGC is expressed as a number between 0 and 1.
Enerlogic 35: less than 0.25 plus low-e
High: 0.00 - 0.25
Medium-High: 0.26 - 0.35
Medium: 0.36 - 0.45

Results
Commercial version results inculde film applied to all elevations. Energy savings determined using U.S. Department of Energy’s DOE-2 energy simulation program. Actual savings are dependent upon many factors including actual local energy costs, glass type, film type, shading of glass from overhangs, and adjacent buildings, etc. Please contact your Vista representative for a detailed and more accurate assessment.

Results
Energy savings determined using Lawrence Berkely National Lab’ RESFEN 5.0 software which is based on the U.S. Department of Energy’s DOE-2 energy simulation program. Actual savings are dependent upon many factors including actual local energy costs, glass type, shading from trees or adjacent homes, use of interior shading devices (blinds or drapes), and thermostat settings used for heating and cooling. Please contact your Vista representative for a detailed and more accurate assessment.
