One type is dual-paned windows which have two panes of glass with air between them and they will better-insulate your home. Another type of glass is triple-paned glass and these are more costly but will help to hold in heat and cold air even more so than dual-paned; they are worth it in regions with excessively hot or cold temperatures. Another type of glass is safety glass and it is less likely to break and is a good choice if you live in an area where strong storm winds are known to occur, which can send things like branches careening into the windows.
