What zone 5B means for a Murray window
Murray falls in IECC climate zone 5B, and ENERGY STAR separately groups Salt Lake 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 Murray.
A Salt Lake City-Murray, UT contractor who can't name either one on request is worth a second question before you sign.
