What zone 4A means for a Oakton window
Washington-Arlington-Alexandria, DC-VA-MD-WV runs a January average near 33°F and climbs to about 75°F by July, a swing that adds up to roughly 4,931 heating degree days most winters, with 964 on the summer cooling side of the ledger.
That load is the actual argument for paying up for a better U-factor in Oakton, separate from anything a brochure claims.
Zone 4A's requirement is the floor; Oakton's specific load is what tells you whether beating that floor is worth the extra cost.
