Viridian’s LightBridge

Cited a top design priority for homeowners, natural light is an essential element in creating a comfortable, healthy, light filled and more valuable home.

This desire for natural light was recently highlighted in a CSIRO survey which found that homeowners felt that –‘good natural light’ was the most important feature from a set list of top priorities for a home.*

Large areas of ordinary glass lose too much heat and don’t comply with energy regulations, leaving homeowners to face the challenge of achieving adequate natural light levels and maintaining an energy efficient home. As a result of this many six star houses are often built with smaller windows to achieve the required NatHERS star rating.

Viridian has the solution – its recently introduced LightBridgeTM. A range of high performance insulating glass units (IGU) developed for residential buildings, LightBridgeTM allows homeowners to enjoy abundant natural light levels in their home without compromising energy efficiency.

Viridian’s LightBridgeTM range offers homeowners the opportunity to more than double the glazed area in a home as compared to the same home using ordinary glass.

“This is because choosing high performance double glazed windows like LightBridgeTM means the permissible window area can be much larger whilst still achieving the same NatHERS star rating. This provides consumers with exactly what they want: a comfortable energy-efficient home with light, views, and a sense of space,” explains Viridian’s Home Comfort General Manager, Daniel Black.
