Triple pane & low-E glass
Triple pane glass can be filled with gas that makes it hard for heat and humidity to pass through, which helps you cut your energy costs. Low-E glass has an invisible metallic coating that keeps heat inside during winter and outside during summer. Both types of glass will help cut your energy costs.

UV coating fade protection
Vinyl patio doors are always UV-coated to protect against fading. You can also get UV-coated glass that acts like sunscreen for furniture inside your home.

U-factor & Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC)
The lower the U-factor, the less heat and cold can transfer through the door. A lower SHGC means there are fewer UV rays passing through the glass. They’re both helpful factors in finding doors that meet ENERGY STAR® requirements for your region.
Screens
To take advantage of great weather and save on heat or air, a screen will allow you to open your patio door while keeping bugs out.
