For example those for the current project come in at 1.1, with the Saint-Gobain spec: 22.1 (14 Argon 90) 42.1 ECLAZ F3. Going to triple glazing wouldn't have made a big difference by itself; for that I'd have had to upgrade the frames to PassivHaus standard. I'd like to have done that, but the profiles are non-standard and the upgrade couldn't be justified financially.]]>
