Overview
Spectrally selective glazing is window glass that permits some portions of the solar spectrum to enter a building while blocking others. This high-performance glazing admits as much daylight as possible while preventing transmission of as much solar heat as possible.
In this course the student will learn about the low-emissivity spectrally selective fenestration glazing benefits, energy savings potential, maintenance considerations, payback potential, applications, codes, standards and warranties. In addition, case studies are presented to help the student see the principles of low-e glazing put into practical use.
The student is expected to read and review the material contained in Spectrally Selective Glazings – DOE/EE-0173.
The student must take a multiple-choice quiz consisting of twenty (20) questions at the end of this course to obtain PDH credits.
