Hunt Club Road is one of Ottawa's busiest east-west routes, and with the airport and industrial areas nearby, auto glass here takes heavy truck gravel and commuter wear.

• Quarter glass and vent windows
• Pickup truck back glass, including many sliding rear windows

Laminated vs tempered auto glass

Windshields are laminated: two layers of glass with a plastic layer in between. When hit, they chip or crack but stay in one piece, which is why small windshield damage can often be repaired.

Side and back windows are usually tempered. Tempered glass is heat-treated so it breaks into small, blunt pieces. It can't be repaired once broken — it has to be replaced, and the leftover glass cleaned out.

Windshield cameras, sensors and recalibration

Many newer vehicles have a camera behind the windshield for lane-keeping, automatic braking or adaptive cruise control, plus rain and light sensors. After a windshield replacement, some of these systems need to be checked or recalibrated so they read the road correctly.

Ontario rules and safety standards

Windshields sold in Canada must meet the federal Motor Vehicle Safety Regulations. Ontario's Highway Traffic Act requires a clear view, and damaged glass can fail a Safety Standards Certificate inspection. Industry practice for installation is set out by the Auto Glass Safety Council.
