style='font-size:13.5pt'>I would try showing the frame effects are accounted
for. I checked my ASHRAE Fundamentals text and the SHGC numbers seem
close for 6mm glass double glazed with an aluminum frame in Table A8.2.
This is a complicated area and I don't get this deep into it. This also
seems to be a LEED US wrinkle from the question. The reference to
referencing A8.2 would only apply to the base case anyway not to your proposed
glass. So it would seem to me you show eQuest does account for the
frames, which it does and that your proposed glass values are reasonable or you
look at NFRC and pick a manufacturer making a window close to what you are
proposing. I think the biggest problem is the reviewer is not very
experienced and is just giving you a stock reply.<br>

style='font-size:13.5pt'>Hi Omar,<br>
This is where LEED and eQuest can get complicated. As
you are outside the US the NFRC test results won't apply to you. This is
a US window test standard. Being from Canada we have CSA test
requirements for windows, we don't use NFRC. Basically you need to use
the base standard for your country for your baseline. LEED Canada has
adjusted the LEED documents in this area to reflect our testing agency and what
we consider a base window. Has the country you are building in done the
same?<br>
So to get you going I would assume a base window in eQuest
for the baseline. Use 6mm clear glass, 1/2" air space, 6mm glass,
metal spacer. Also pick a base frame as well, this would depend on the
type of building you are doing, so select a plain frame in common use, if metal
choose a frame without a thermal break. This should be easy to defend on
a LEED review. If there is a specific country version of LEED for your
location then you could adjust for this later once you get the required
information. For your proposed you would build the window you are
considering using the window manufacturers specs. All manufacturers will
not offer all glass types. In the window industry there are the glass
manufacturers, they make the glass. Window manufacturers buy the glass
and make the frames. Now you can see the reasoning behind the NFRC
testing and testing the total window, glass and frame, it is window
manufacturer specific. But it does make a conflict with eQuest and the
way it was programmed and the way windows are input. Realistically the
frame it not going to make much difference except if it is metal and there is a
thermal break. The glass being the overwhelming area of the window is
going to have the largest impact. This is what you want to be playing
with in eQuest, determining the cost effectiveness of different types of glass
and the payouts. As long as you operate from a realistic baseline which
is the current standard construction used in the country of the build then you
can evaluate your proposed glass because you are looking at differential costs
and savings. If your baseline changes it won't make very much difference,
you have already been able to select your window, it will just effect the
payback period and it will be a minor difference. This does let you get
98% of the window work done.<br>

Is the u-value listed for a manufacturer and specific model on the NRCAN
website centre of glass or overall assembly? Many windows are custom made
to suit so I am unclear if each individual custom window would need to be
tested.<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
In eQuest, when entering the window, if the u-value represents the whole
window, including frame, do you need to enter a frame width, conductance etc as
well under the Window Frame section under Window Properties? Thanks.<br>

<br>
Omar,<br>
<br>
The answer depends on the purpose of your study. If you're trying to get
results for a client on the impact of the glazing on their energy performance,
this may be adequate. Make sure you've entered in the framing information
properly (metal vs. non-metal).<br>
<br>
I'd recommend opening up your simulation output results file (xxxx.SIM) and
going to the either the last page of the LV-D report or sort through your LV-E
report to see what value eQUEST has calculated. Compare these values to
the ASHRAE Fundamentals results for overall assembly values including frame to
see how close you've come. I would not blindly trust that eQUEST will
give you an appropriate overall assembly value based on entering only the
center of glass number.<br>
<br>
However, if this is for a LEED study, this is not adequate. This an
excerpt from an e-mail I sent out recently regarding LEED and NFRC
requirements.<br>
<br>
In order to meet LEED EAp2 Minimum Energy Performance, the project must comply
with all mandatory provisions of ASHRAE 90.1-2007. Section 5.4.2
Fenestration and Doors requires that fenestration performance be determined per
section 5.8.2. Section 5.8.2.4 U-factor requires that the U-factor for
the overall fenestration area (including framing) be determined in accordance
with NFRC 100. If you do not have NFRC data available, values from section A8.2
are the only acceptable alternative.<br>
