What zone 3B means for a Menifee window
Riverside-San Bernardino-Ontario, CA runs a January average near 54°F and climbs to about 80°F by July, a swing that adds up to roughly 1,610 heating degree days most winters, with 1,987 on the summer cooling side of the ledger.
That load is the actual argument for paying up for a better U-factor in Menifee, separate from anything a brochure claims.
Zone 3B's requirement is the floor; Menifee's specific load is what tells you whether beating that floor is worth the extra cost.
