What to check before ordering insulated fire glass in Shipley
How it works
When heated, the interlayers turn opaque and expand, forming an insulating shield. After a fire the glass will need replacing.
Exterior positions
Some EI products are internal only. External use needs a product and edge seal approved for UV and weather.
Optical quality
Modern EI glass is clear in normal use, with high light transmission at lower ratings.
