Comparison of Greendoor ESG Glass and Industry regular glass
What’s the difference between aluminium spacer, warm spacer, ESG spacer insulated glass unit(IGU)?
This article will have a thorough comparison about the aluminium spacer IGU (industry regular product, inflexible spacer) and our ESG spacer IGU, from the perspective of appearance, spacer, spacer moisture proof performance, spacer connector, spacer sealant, glass and spacer shape, spacer thickness, high and low temperature cycle, argon filling charged, argon content test, argon retention, leak proof, insulation temperature difference, energy efficiency, heated glass with argon charged, compressor life, frame design, glass door insulation performance and life etc.
Below information for your attention:

9, 10,12,14,16,18mm or custom made, not adjustable |
2-20mm, 0.1mm adjustable |
High and low temperature cycle |
Leak and vapor comes in |
Leak proof |
Argon filling charged |
Charged but leaked |
Charged and retained |
Argon test |
Fake test, no percentage |
With argon concentration percentage |
Argon retention |
Argon loss 1-2 years |
Argon retention 20 years |
Leak |
Prone to moisture permeation and have dew inside |
Moisture and water proof |
Energy efficient |
|
20% better |
Low E performance |
Normal Low E performance |
Argon enhance Low E performance |
Insulation performance |
10℃ Lower |
10℃ higher
10℃ higher temperature |
Heated glass |
Hole in spacer, no argon
|
Spacer no damage, 95-99% argon keeping |
Compressor running time |
More start up and running time, use more electricity, compressor time shortened |
Less start up and running Longer compressor life |
Frame design |
Glass sealant will be soaked with condensation water, and have dew inside glass soon |
The ESG spacer is away from condensation water and longer life |
