A double-glazed glass unit is centred in the image. On the left, a cold, icy landscape with a snow-covered mountain symbolises low temperatures. A blue arrow points away from the glass unit, representing cold air being reflected out. On the right side, two cosy feet in patterned socks are propped up near a warm fireplace. An orange arrow points toward the inside, showing heat staying in. The image illustrates minimal heat loss, with the double-glazed unit effectively keeping cold air out and retaining warmth inside, visually representing the concept of U-values.
