Surface Options

Because FireLite is made from transparent glass-ceramic, it differs in color from float glass. FireLite appears to have a warmer earth tone when compared to the blue green tint of typical float glass. However, like float glass, FireLite ceramic will not demonstrate a highly perceptible color once installed in a frame. Additionally, FireLite products are manufactured in three distinct surface grades (Premium, Standard and Obscure) that are best reviewed prior to specification. Please contact TGP at 800.426.0279 or sales@fireglass.com to request a sample kit.

FireLite Standard Grade:
May have slight surface imperfections, which may become more apparent in larger
sheet sizes. FireLite Standard Grade is comparable to alternative fire-rated ceramics
that are marketed as having a “Premium” finish.
For more information about FireLite surface grades, please see our Premium FireLite FAQ.
|
|
FireLite Premium Grade:
Both surfaces are polished to eliminate any distortion. FireLite Premium Grade is
the industry leader for quality and is unmatched by alternative products or production
methods.
For more information about FireLite surface grades, please see our Premium FireLite FAQ.
|
|
FireLite Obscure Grade:
The glass-ceramic features a patterned surface to allow more privacy.

Storage & Handling
FireLite IGU must be handled with care during transportation, storage, inspection and installation. Store in a dry place.
Care & Warranty
To maintain aesthetics, it is important to clean the glass during and after construction.
For routine cleaning, use a soft, clean, grit-free cloth and a mild soap, detergent,
or nonabrasive window cleaning solution.
Rinse immediately with clean water and remove any excess water from the glass surface
with a squeegee. Do not allow any metal or hard parts of the cleaning equipment
to contact the glass surface.
Failure to comply with these care and cleaning guidelines may result in
loss of warranty.
