1stwindows FAQ - Frequently Asked Questions
35 or less is recommended in cold climates. In warm climates a low U-value is helpful during hot days or whenever heating is needed, but it is less important than SHGC (Solar Heat Gain Coefficient - see below). Q: What is R-Value? A: R-value measures insulating power. The higher the R-value, the better the insulating power. To find the R-value... See #5.

United Window & Door Test Results

Extreme Efficiency
...windows, which only cut out about 10 percent of the incident solar radiation. The fraction of incident solar radiation that passes through a window is called the solar heat gain coefficient (SHGC). With an SHGC of 0.9, these windows maximize heat gain into that space. During the night, I close the door between the sunspace and living... See #10.
