The Learning Center To prevent thermal loss caused by conventional aluminum spacers in insulating glass units, more and more insulated glass is being made with low-conductivity materials to separate panes of glass. If the material conducts less heat or cold than a conventional aluminum spacer at the edge of the glass, it is said to be “warm-edge.” Most of these newer spacers are less conductive and outperform pure aluminum. Warm edge spacers improve thermal performance of windows, reduce condensation, and, with the appropriate machinery, permit faster and easier assembling of insulating glass units. The biggest problem with this type of spacer is still the price, as it is more expensive than a conventional aluminum spacer.       18. What are warm edge spacer systems?
