What’s HaanGlas Basic?

HaanGlas basic is the basic version of HaanGlas vacuum insulating glass.

Different from normal double glazing that contain 12mm or even 16mm air between glass, vacuum glazing replace the air space into 0.3mm high vacuum degree space and bring numerous possibility to the historical windows.

Benefits of HaanGlas Basic.

1.Super energy saving -up to 10% thermal conductivity of original glass

Historical windows always use single tempered glass and even annealed glass ,whose U value(thermal conductivity measurement) is 5.8W/M2.K,light transmittance is 88%.

In summer hard to keep room comfortable while in winter,frost flowers appeared in room side and makes room very cold.

With HaanGlas Basic whose thermal insulation performance is 10 times higher, vacuum glazing can keep far infarred outside and avoid heat transfer glass in summer while in winter,it keep the inside room warm and avoid heat loss through glass.

Check this video and see the thermal insulation performance between HaanGlas and normal clear glass.

 

  1. Super thin -decrease your costs and save time.

The most headache problem for customers is the time to replace the windows and glass.Customers may have to re-locate and leave time and space for the renovation works.

Replacing the whole windows will also change the overall appearance and building style ,the expenses can be up to USD500/SQM.

The biggest feature of HaanGlas Basic vacuum insulted glazing is ,thin and light.

Minimum 8mm thick,which can fit the original windows frame and not necessary to replace the windows.

The light weight -20kgs/sqm,also enables that original frame can sustain this light glass and won;t destroy the original structure.

It takes less than an hour to replace the glass without long term construction works and avoid affecting your daily life.

3.Super clear -keep the best viewing.

In autumn,condensation will happens on glass surface and make it hard to view outside.

In winter,frost will appear in cold morning and it even take several hours to have the glass become clear again.

frost will happens in cold winters because of low inner surface temperature

The appearance of condensation and frost is caused by the low glass inner surface temperature,with the excellent thermal insulation performance,HaanGlas Basic inner surface will keep warm and can be 5-10 ℃ higher than normal single tempered glass and prevent condensation and frost.AMP

Traditional glass ,sound proof performance is 30Dbs, while HaanGlas BASIC soundprooAMPf is up to 36Dbs.

Beside the 6Dbs soundproof increase,vacuum insulating glass has much better performance in decreasing the low and middle frequency noise,for example engine sounds,traffic noise and help creating comfortable environment.

Vacuum glazing is suitbale for historical window renovation for its excellent soundproof performance

Traditional glass used in historical windows are always annealed glass,when it broken,glass will fall from the windows and sharp corners will cause serious injury to people.

HaanGlas Basic is fully temperedAMP,even if our standard 8.15mm version,it’s heat strengthened and glass strength is 2 times higher than normal float glass,once glass is broken,it will keep glass integrity and won’t fall from windows.

Basic also has fully tempered 10.15mm whose strength is 3-5 times higher and can resist bigger impact and won’t break.It will break into small particles ,no sharp corners,no injury.
