What feature in a window helps to reflect long-wave radiation and increases its energy efficiency?

  1. Glazing

  2. Inert gas fill

  3. Low-E

  4. U-value

The correct answer is: Low-E

Low-E stands for low emissivity, which is a feature in a window that helps to reflect long-wave radiation and increase its energy efficiency. This feature allows the window to reflect heat back to its source, helping to keep the interior of the building warmer in the winter and cooler in the summer. Glazing refers to the glass in a window; inert gas fill is used to increase insulation and decrease heat transfer; and U-value measures the rate of heat transfer of a window, but it does not directly reflect long-wave radiation like Low-E does.
