what absorbs more a single or dowbled pane window?and y?

Answer 1

Absorbs what heat from inside or sun from the outside neither. Single pane windows keep the heat in and lets more sunlight in. This will cause your curtains to lighten up. Double pane window do the same but depending on the kind of gas you get in the window will reflects the suns rays and make your house cooler. So your question should be what kind of windows reflects the sun and why?

Answer 2

Double pane windows are considered better.

Water tends to condense on a single pane window during extreme window. This water will run down the glass, and will be absorbed by the framing, eventually damaging the home.

Heat can pass through a single pane window directly into the house in summer time, or out of the house in winter time, so it is not good insulation.

With a double pane window, there are two pieces of glass, with dead air space between them. This means that there is space in the middle when the temperature is very different, and getting water to condense on them is much harder, so long as they remain sealed. This air space also serves as insulation, which cuts down on your utility bills. Double pane windows also absorb more noise, which will kep your home a quieter place, and two panes of windows are harder to smash through than one, so they are better for security too.

Of course, single pane windows are much cheaper, and easy to make by yourself.

Answer 3

Its like this, double pane windows are insulated, like a thermos. They allow you to heat or cool the inside of your house with less energy loss or heat gain than the conventional single pane windows. New tech has come up with gas filled windows that are filled with Argon gas.
Because of it composition it "transmits" less solar energy from outside to inside, So less heat gain from the sun translates into less cooling cost to you. As mentioned before, they also tend to condensate a lot less than the single pane windows in older houses. Condensation is bad because it promotes mold growth and wood rot around the window sill and the wall immediately under the window. Condesation is caused by rapidly cooling warm moist air, like on the outside of can or bottle. The air passes across the cooler glass and water vapor in the air is slowed down and collected on the cooler surface. Basically the same way a cool front will help it rain, Cold air does not have the energy required to keep the water vapor so it drops it and goes on with a lighter load.
Having the insulatted glass in the windows keeps the inside pane closer to room temp and helps avoid the drips.

Answer 4

Glass is he 2nd hardest surface. Only steel is harder and neither one absorb anything.
What are you attempting to find out? How to cut down noise? Minimize glare? ??????????

Answer 5

Windows don't absorb, they're waterproof.

Answer 6

not sure what you're asking... more efficient would be double pane.

light transmittance varies from level of glass and manufacturer... UV absorbtion varies... depends on what you're looking for and what you're really asking.

Answer 7

absorbs what ? Sunlight ?

Answer 8

what's a 'dowbled'?
