Auto Glass
Safety matters.
If a auto windshield is not installed properly, it can come out during a collision and lead to serious injury. Because a windshield is usually bonded into your car with an adhesive, you should look for experienced installers who have certification of instruction from adhesive companies in the use of their products. Professional auto glass companies take the time to do the job right the first time, so you'll avoid service problems down the road. A replaced windshield must comply with any safety standards that were part of the original vehicle design when your car rolled off the assembly line.
What is Quality installation?
We know that poor quality glass, improper adhesive selection, or a hurried replacement process can cause problems, such as: air whistles, water leaks, rust, distorted vision, heating or cooling discomfort, or loss of vehicle safety features. To avoid these problems, we recommend that you use only certified professionals with the proper credentials to do repairs/installation jobs. Properly done windshield replacement involves a multi-step process and use of sophisticated adhesive systems. A quality windshield installation usually takes between 30 - 60 minutes and involves multiple steps. Auto Glass Today has technicians that are trained according to national standards set forth in the industry. You can rest assured that we put every effort into quality because your safety may depend on it.
Auto glass is not "just glass"
Safety glass is used in all automobile glass. It is manu-factured to reduce the likelihood of injury, if it breaks. There are two different types: laminated glass and tempered glass. Windshields are made from a lamin- ation process. A windshield actually consists of two pieces of glass, bonded together by a vinyl inter-layer. This vinyl layer cushions your head during impact. If a windshield breaks during impact, the broken pieces will generally adhere to the plastic lining.Side and rear windows consist of tempered glass, which is produced by heating the glass to more than 1,100°F and then rapidly cooling it. This results in the outside surfaces of the glass becoming harder than the center of glass and, therefore, is stronger than regular glass of the same thickness. If broken, tempered glass will break-up into very small pieces.
