Cottonwood Heights's Climate Data and Its Top-Rated Window Pros
Cottonwood Heights sits in IECC climate zone 5B, which sets the energy-performance bar here no matter who ends up installing your windows. A window license file doesn't cover Cottonwood Heights on this site, so Google Maps supplies the 9 ranked names you see below. Checked October 2026.

Cottonwood Heights's climate zone, in plain terms
Salt Lake City-Murray, UT runs a January average near 30°F and climbs to about 79°F by July, a swing that adds up to roughly 5,509 heating degree days most winters, with 1,223 on the summer cooling side of the ledger.
That load is the actual argument for paying up for a better U-factor in Cottonwood Heights, separate from anything a brochure claims.
Zone 5B's requirement is the floor; Cottonwood Heights's specific load is what tells you whether beating that floor is worth the extra cost.
