What zone 8 means for a Fairbanks window
Fairbanks falls in IECC climate zone 8, and ENERGY STAR separately groups Fairbanks North Star Borough into its Northern zone for window certification.
Those two numbers, not the brand on the box, set the U-factor and SHGC worth checking on any quote you get in Fairbanks.
A Fairbanks-College, AK contractor who can't name either one on request is worth a second question before you sign.
