Hi Joyce;

  Short answer: Yes

However, there are different amounts, depending on a lot of
factors, such as where you are located (climate) shading, etc.

 Reflecting light back out, after allowing it to pass through the
glass is not the most effective way to reduce Summer over
heating, but saying "that window" implies that it is just one,
which would make it, literally, not a big deal.

What is your closest city. I can look up sunshine data,
and give you a fairly close example of a comparison
between Low-E and standard glass.

However, many building codes are insisting on Low-E
for all windows, even though they are not as energy
efficient for South facing windows..
