Thermal Break Glazing Insulation and Infiltration Reduction System
A thermal break glazing insulation and infiltration reduction system is a system for minimizing heat loss and heat gain through an existing window. A second glazing panel is installed into an existing window unit with a first glazing panel that is installed into a window frame. The second glazing unit does not come into contact with the window frame or the first glazing panel. Additionally, the second glazing unit is offset from the first glazing unit in order to create a trapped air space through which thermal energy is unable to pass. The width of the trapped air space is determined on the basis of individual needs and may be widened through the use of an at least one L-shaped bracket. The second glazing panel is attached to the first glazing panel or the at least one L-shaped bracket via an at least one spacer.
