Cardinal LoE3-366: The Science Behind the Glass
Every Lexmark window ships with Cardinal LoE3-366, a triple-layer silver coating that delivers solar control performance previously only possible with tinted or reflective glass, while maintaining a clear, neutral appearance.
How It Works
LoE3-366 uses three layers of silver separated by anti-reflective dielectric layers, applied to the #2 surface of the insulated glass unit. This triple-silver stack selectively filters the solar spectrum: it transmits visible light while reflecting infrared heat and blocking ultraviolet radiation. The result is a window that lets you see clearly while rejecting the energy that drives up cooling costs.
Energy Efficiency Benefits
Reduced Cooling Costs
With an SHGC of 0.27, LoE3-366 rejects nearly three-quarters of the sun's heat before it enters your home. In Southern California's climate, this translates to significantly lower air conditioning usage and reduced energy bills year-round, especially on south and west-facing windows.
Superior Insulation
The low U-factor of 0.29 (with argon gas fill) means heat stays where you want it: inside during winter, outside during summer. Combined with Lexmark's multi-chambered vinyl profiles and Duralite warm-edge spacers, the complete window system minimizes thermal bridging and condensation.
Fading Protection
95% UV blockage protects interior furnishings, hardwood floors, artwork, and fabrics from sun damage and fading. Unlike tinted glass, LoE3-366 provides this protection without darkening your view or altering interior color perception.
Year-Round Comfort
By reflecting radiant heat back toward its source, LoE3-366 reduces cold spots near windows in winter and hot spots in summer. Occupants feel more comfortable at greater distances from the glass, making the full room usable regardless of season.
Code Compliance
LoE3-366 meets or exceeds ENERGY STAR requirements for all U.S. climate zones, California Title 24 energy standards, and NFRC certification requirements. When combined with argon gas and Lexmark's thermally broken frames, the system is ready for the most demanding energy codes.
Outperforms Tinted Glass
Traditional grey or bronze tinted glass reduces heat by absorbing it, which re-radiates into the room. LoE3-366 reflects solar heat instead of absorbing it, delivering better performance with higher visible light and no color distortion. Your view stays clear and true.
