5AIECC climate zone · ENERGY STAR Northern zone
Pompton Lakes's climate zone, in plain terms
Pompton Lakes falls in IECC climate zone 5A, and ENERGY STAR separately groups Passaic 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 Pompton Lakes.
A New York-Newark-Jersey City, NY-NJ contractor who can't name either one on request is worth a second question before you sign.
