Castle Rock's climate zone, in plain terms
Denver-Aurora-Centennial, CO runs a January average near 32°F and climbs to about 71°F by July, a swing that adds up to roughly 6,103 heating degree days most winters, with 499 on the summer cooling side of the ledger.
That load is the actual argument for paying up for a better U-factor in Castle Rock, separate from anything a brochure claims.
Zone 5B's requirement is the floor; Castle Rock's specific load is what tells you whether beating that floor is worth the extra cost.
