The space
between the two panes of a double- or triple-pane window is called
dead-air space.
A deadlite
is a piece of glass with a sash around it, but isn't set in the
main frame of a window.
With its
high water absorbency, desiccant is a material
used in glass to absorb water vapor, which causes fogging.
A double-hung
window has two operable sashes that open up and down.
Double-strength
glass has a thickness of approximately 1/8".
An alternative
method of placing glass in a door or window is called dry
glazing.
Dual
durometer is a vinyl bead material with two different
degrees of hardness. The softer part is up against the window
and the harder part is inserted into the sash.
