Question, factory tinted windows and damage to eyes ????
Hi guys. I have read somewhere that factory tinted windows can damage the eyes (I can't find back this article) , because they do not have good enough UV protection, especially if it is tempered glass and not laminated glass. As in many countries, there is a requirement for a certain UV protection in sunglasses. How will this be with the glasses in the car? I don't think it's possible to protect against uva rays without any layer of film. The problem is that if the glass is darker with not uva protection, the eye lets in more light, if there is too little UV coverage in the glass, this can lead to damage to the eye. UVA, UVB, and UVC rays can lead to cataracts, macular degeneration, photokeratitis, and more. Over 24 million Americans over 40 suffer from cataracts alone. From google, The first rule of thumb is to choose sunglasses that provide 100% UVA/UVB protection. Think about it, people have kids in the back seat, they look at the sun for hours while driving... What do we think about this? -

Dual Low E Question
To clarify for any public folks reading and industry folks that may not know: The LowE dual coating spoke of by the OP is a rare bird for use in area south of Iowa,USA. The only reason(s) I believe Cardinal (based in Wisconsin) placed the second coating on surface 4 is, 1) is to sell that type glazing system in areas that experience extreme cold below to above 0 F for nights on end and on 4 it is more effective at retention for that use. Iowa is logically the furthest south it should be recommended for. That said, the other coating on surface 2 is the hi-performance coating. This high performance coating is capable of rejecting solar energy, in a LowE2 glazing system of 60%+/- and up to 94% when considering Low4. A LowE4 dual pane would be the ticket in Australia's seriously hot spots. Sadly, if it caught on there, it would impact the window film industry in regions it is useful. Although, LowE4 is pricey at this point in time. A friend of mine had a sun room built on his house in Southern Virginia using LowE4, even as a roof. The vast majority of dual coating LowE glazing involves no coating on surface 4, the exception being original LowE that has not been readily available since around year 2000. Surface 2 & 3 is considered the norm today, for warmer climates north of tropical. Also, the hi-performance LowE2, 3 & 4 glazing systems are very effective at UV reduction (to my understanding in the mid to upper 90's). Original LowE first came on the scene in my early years in the industry and many of us didn't know unless the owner told us, and even with that knowledge, we did not know film covering the coating on surface 4 would rendered LowE ineffective. Those days, single pane LowE existed and the coating would be on surface 2, then.- 1
