Kankakee's climate zone, in plain terms
Kankakee, IL runs a January average near 24°F and climbs to about 75°F by July, a swing that adds up to roughly 5,983 heating degree days most winters, with 997 on the summer cooling side of the ledger.
That load is the actual argument for paying up for a better U-factor in Kankakee, separate from anything a brochure claims.
Zone 5A's requirement is the floor; Kankakee's specific load is what tells you whether beating that floor is worth the extra cost.
