What zone 4A means for a Bensville window
Bensville falls in IECC climate zone 4A, and ENERGY STAR separately groups Charles County into its North-Central zone for window certification.
Those two numbers, not the brand on the box, set the U-factor and SHGC worth checking on any quote you get in Bensville.
A Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV contractor who can't name either one on request is worth a second question before you sign.
