NA6.2    Default U-factor

 

Equation NA6-1

UT= C1 + (C2 X Uc)

 

Where:

UT = U-factor  Is the Total Performance of the fenestration including glass and frame

C1 = Coefficient selected from Table NA6-5

C2 = Coefficient selected from Table NA6-5

UC =  Center of glass U-factor calculated in accordance with NFRC 100 Section 4.5.3.1 www.nfrc.org/software.aspx
