Designing and Enhancing Building Performance with IQ Radiant Glass®



The IQ Radiant Glass® system can help improve energy management and health benefits in buildings through building automation and smart systems. The system provides targeted thermal comfort to occupants and surfaces in a room at lower ambient temperatures, allowing operable vents to be opened for natural ventilation, reducing the load on heat pumps and air circulators. This can significantly improve health and facade efficiency while reducing energy wastage and carbon emissions.


The capabilities of IQ Radiant Glass@ for condensation control is outstanding.


In order to enhance energy efficiency, it is essential to adopt hybrid HVAC systems that incorporate natural ventilation and thermal comfort. The IQ Radiant Glass® system can solve this problem by improving energy management in buildings through building automation and smart systems. This technology provides targeted thermal comfort to occupants, while allowing operable vents to be opened for natural ventilation during certain periods in winter, reducing the load on heat pumps and air circulators. This can significantly improve facade efficiency and reduce energy wastage and carbon emissions.


There are several programs that architects and engineers could use to integrate heating glass into Intelligent Building Management Systems. Building Information Modeling (BIM) software such as Autodesk Revit or ArchiCAD can be used to create a 3D digital model of a building and its components, which allows architects and engineers to visualize and optimize the design of heating glass installations.


  • Building Automation Systems (BAS) such as Schneider Electric's EcoStruxure or Siemens' Desigo offer centralized control and automation of various building systems, including heating and cooling systems, lighting, and security. These systems can be integrated with heating glass to optimize energy use and indoor comfort.

  • Control system programming languages such as Python or Java can be used to write custom software that communicates with heating glass sensors, controllers, and actuators. This allows architects and engineers to design more custom and efficient heating glass solutions.

  • Energy modeling software such as EnergyPlus or Carrier HAP can be used to simulate the energy performance of buildings with heating glass and other energy-efficient components. This can help architects and engineers optimize the design of heating glass systems for maximum energy savings and occupant comfort.

  • Schneider Electric's EcoStruxure can help with the integration of IQ Radiant heating glass into a building's Building Management System (BMS). EcoStruxure offers a comprehensive set of features, including advanced analytics, smart alarms, and building performance dashboards. Through EcoStruxure, IQ Radiant heating glass can be connected to the BMS, which can enable remote management and control of the glass panels' heating functions.

  • Siemens' Desigo can be configured to optimize the performance of the heating system when integrating IQ Radiant Heating Glass into a building controlled by Desigo. Desigo's analytics could be used to monitor the temperature in each room of a building and make real-time adjustments to the amount of heat being emitted from the heating glass, ensuring that the temperature is always at a comfortable level while maximizing energy efficiency.

  • The use of programming languages like Python or Java could be extremely beneficial for architects or engineers contemplating the use of IQ Radiant Glass®, as it could help architects and engineers optimize the building's energy efficiency and overall performance. With data collection, analysis, and control, programming languages could help provide valuable insights into the performance of the heating glass and what improvements could be made. Overall, the integration of IQ Radiant Glass with@ these intelligent building management systems and software tools can lead to more efficient and sustainable buildings.
