What type of glass panels are available for Ekodome PRO Domes? 

PRO Domes and Glass Houses come with insulated double-pane glass, and you can choose between Regular, Solar Low-E, and Reflective coatings depending on climate and visual preference.

All PRO Domes and Glass House configurations use insulated double-pane glass panels. The difference between the glass types is how they manage light, heat, and privacy. Your choice depends on your climate and the interior environment you want to create.

Regular Double-Pane Glass

  • Clear, neutral appearance with maximum visible light.
  • Heat Behavior: No additional solar control. Performs like standard architectural glazing when paired with the PRO frame’s thermal break.
  • Best For: Projects where natural clarity, brightness, and a neutral aesthetic are the priority.

Solar Low-E Glass

  • Clear appearance with a nearly invisible thermal coating.
  • How It Works: A microscopically thin low-emissivity coating reflects infrared heat while allowing visible daylight through.
  • Cold Climates: Keeps interior heat inside.
  • Warm Climates: Blocks a portion of solar heat from entering.
  • Light Transmission: High. Interiors stay bright without overheating.
  • Best For: Year-round residential PRO Domes, hospitality units, office spaces, studios, any environment where comfort and balanced daylight matter.

Reflective Glass

  • A metallic-coated double-pane glass with a mirrored exterior look.
  • How It Works: Reflects a larger portion of solar heat and visible light away from the dome, reducing interior brightness and solar gain.
  • Heat Control: Stronger than Low-E in hot climates.
  • Privacy: Provides daytime privacy; becomes transparent at night.
  • Appearance: Sleek mirrored exterior with a darker tint inside.
  • Best For: Hot sunny regions, privacy-focused builds, domes with strong visual exposure, or customers who want a modern mirrored aesthetic.

How to Choose the Right Glass

  • Choose Regular Glass if you want: the most natural, neutral look with maximum brightness.
  • Choose Solar Low-E if you want: high daylight, reduced heat gain, better winter insulation, and a comfortable year-round interior without changing the glass appearance.
  • Choose Reflective Glass if you want: stronger heat reduction, a mirrored exterior finish, and daytime privacy in very sunny or exposed locations.
