Westwood's climate zone, in plain terms
Moisture and glass performance are handled by different parts of a window's spec sheet, and a Westwood buyer benefits from checking both instead of assuming one implies the other.
Data: U.S. EPA / DOE, ENERGY STAR, ENERGY STAR Version 7.0 Climate Zones by County/ZIP (Windows, Doors, and Skylights) (V7.0); Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (DOE Building America), Guide to Determining Climate Zone by County: Building America and IECC 2021 Updates (PNNL-33270) (2021 IECC), from the nearest NOAA station 3 mi away.
What FEMA's risk data says about Westwood
FEMA rates Norfolk County's hurricane risk as Relatively Moderate and its wind risk as Relatively Moderate.
Neither rating changes a window's energy label, but both are exactly what impact-resistance and design-pressure ratings are built to answer for a Westwood home.
Ask specifically about design pressure and impact rating for Westwood, not just energy performance, if either risk rating comes back on the high side.
