Effectively reduce Solar Heat Gain by shading vision glass areas of the building envelope with Tubelite’s MaxBlock Sun Shades. Cooling costs can be significantly lowered while still allowing natural light to fill the workspace.
MaxBlock Sun Shades are designed for use with Tubelite 400 Series Curtainwall or the Tubelite Storefront product lines.
LEED Program points are available for reducing building energy costs for cooling while supplementing interior lighting (Energy & Atmosphere Credit 1, 1-10 Points).
Estimate the Solar Heat Gain Coefficient on the glass by geography using our convenient tables. See Tubelite’s technical data in the full product information binder.
