Energy Conservation
The energy transmission coefficient of glass block walls is comparable to standard double-glazing.

Light Transmission
Glass walls offer a high degree light transmission, up to 85% (depending on pattern) of vertically incident light. This is equivalent to normal double-glazed insulating panes. In the case of colored glass blocks, light transmission varies with the intensity of colour.
