What zone 4C means for a Tukwila window
Seattle-Tacoma-Bellevue, WA runs a January average near 43°F and climbs to about 67°F by July, a swing that adds up to roughly 4,376 heating degree days most winters, with 265 on the summer cooling side of the ledger.
That load is the actual argument for paying up for a better U-factor in Tukwila, separate from anything a brochure claims.
Zone 4C's requirement is the floor; Tukwila's specific load is what tells you whether beating that floor is worth the extra cost.
