Understanding Fenestration U-Factors and Energy Code Compliance

Program Overview

The combination of evolving commercial energy codes and building requirements, mixed with a myriad of manufacturers’ performance data, often result in a misinterpretation of fenestration thermal performance. This presentation provides an understanding of fenestration total unit U-Factor, explains how different components of a window’s assembly (glass, aluminum framing and glass spacer) affect U-Factor, reviews testing methods for U-Factor, and provides guidance for developing accurate U-Factor specification language. 

Learning Objectives

•   Identify five attributes affecting window U-Factor.
•   Employ at least three design options to improve window U-Factor.
•   Differentiate between NFRC and AAMA testing and certification processes.
•   Draft non-defective specification requirements for U-Factor.
•   Recognize other important energy related window design factors and the    
    importance of a balanced design.
