What zone 3B means for a Las Vegas window
Las Vegas-Henderson-North Las Vegas, NV runs a January average near 49°F and climbs to about 92°F by July, a swing that adds up to roughly 1,992 heating degree days most winters, with 3,407 on the summer cooling side of the ledger.
That load is the actual argument for paying up for a better U-factor in Las Vegas, separate from anything a brochure claims.
Zone 3B's requirement is the floor; Las Vegas's specific load is what tells you whether beating that floor is worth the extra cost.
