Low solar heat gain,  Low-E Makai windows are manufactured according to energy efficiency guidelines set by the U.S. Department of Energy and the Environmental Protection Agency. Energy performance calculations, in accordance with these guidelines, show the best energy performance in Hawaii comes from low solar heat gain, Low-E windows.

Energy-efficient Makai windows, which are available with this technology that produces low positive solar heat gain ratings, easily maintain room temperature year-round. This special Low-E glass option makes Makai one of the most energy-efficient windows available in the world today.

Makai’s high performance Low-E shield is built to last. It is permanently applies while the glass is being formed, eliminating potential defects during the window’s manufacturing that may go unnoticed during production and after installation.
