Some of the issues the company should walk you through include the specific conditions that qualify a window as energy efficient. This includes, the new energy start certification, the U-Factor, Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC), NFRC Rating and more. NFRC stands for National Fenestration Rating Council. One thing I can sayhere is that if a window does not have the NFRC sticker then in most cases it is unlikely to be energy efficient.
