What zone 5A means for a Elmwood Park window
Chicago-Naperville-Elgin, IL-IN runs a January average near 25°F and climbs to about 75°F by July, a swing that adds up to roughly 5,974 heating degree days most winters, with 1,003 on the summer cooling side of the ledger.
That load is the actual argument for paying up for a better U-factor in Elmwood Park, separate from anything a brochure claims.
Zone 5A's requirement is the floor; Elmwood Park's specific load is what tells you whether beating that floor is worth the extra cost.
