What zone 6A means for a Hanover window
Hanover falls in IECC climate zone 6A, and ENERGY STAR separately groups Grafton County into its Northern 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 Hanover.
A Lebanon-Claremont, NH-VT contractor who can't name either one on request is worth a second question before you sign.
