Heavy coating of ice on windowClose-up of traditional obscure glass

The winter of 2019 has been full of inclement weather, and this morning was no exception. We woke up to a heavy ice coating on everything including our windows. If you guessed that the photo on the left is obscure glass and the photo on the right is ice, you are correct.

Obscure Glass

It’s difficult to see through obscure glass because it has a pattern embedded in its surface. This makes it an attractive option for windows where you would like to increase privacy or security such as a bathroom. Obscure windows allow natural light to brighten the room and are available in a variety of styles.

Obscure window display in Lakeview Windows & Siding showroom. The top pane shows traditional obscure glass and the lower pane displays rain glass. These and other options are available in your windows.
This is not obscure glass. This is our patio door covered in a thick coating of ice on the outside; but we’re staying warm inside. The highly efficient insulated glass in this patio door is reflecting the room heat back into the room where it belongs.
