  • May 12, 2022, by Jianjun Hu:
    Changed the glass thickness (3.175 to 3.048 mm), thermal conductivity (1.06 to 1 W/m.K), solar transmittance (0.86156 to 0.834), solar reflectance (0.0434 to 0.075) and infrared absorptivity (0.9 to 0.84).
    This is for #3005.
  • August 7, 2015, by Michael Wetter:
    Reimplemented the record by extending its base class, rather than newly redefining the record. This was needed as the record definition changed when implementing electrochromic windows.
  • October 6, 2011, by Michael Wetter:
    First implementation.
