Low-E glass is  a pretty good rf shield--at least in the UHF/microwave 
range that I have tried to blast through it. Are you kidding, a glass 
house?? Has the same shielding as a wood-frame house, or a concrete house. 
zero.  To avoid all problems, build a copper screen house--no bugs, but rain 
is an issue. You could build a screen house inside the glass house, but 
then,,,,......... Egads.  Take up knitting.
