Argon and Krypton are safe, odourless and colourless gases, which are heavier than air. When used in conjunction with LoE2 glass, these gases provide better insulation. The reason? Heat and cold do not pass through Argon and Krypton gas as easily as through air. Furthermore, Argon and Krypton are non-toxic and present no human health or environmental concerns.  

As with any Vinylbilt technology, the addition of these superior insulators will stand the test of time. Tests conducted on commercial insulated glass sealants have determined that the superior sealant used in the Vinylbilt system will allow a maximum gas permeation of less than 1/3 of 1% per year! It was also noted that other manufacturers use sealants that could allow as much as 3% to escape per year. The superior sealing system that we use, combined with the fact that we fill our units to 98% of their cubic volume with gas, far exceeds the required industry standard of 75% fill.

In short, you will experience a lifetime of superior comfort from our insulating technologies.
