My bad, this sentence "I disagree with your reasoning about not having 40 degree days 24x7 - they are exactly the days im trying to make more comfortable." even after…

If you knew it is not scientific then what was the purpose of that fact in this conversation? And BTW, prefixing your post with "novice" doesn't give you the right…

You do realize this is not a scientific way of measuring the performance of a window in a particular climate zone? And even further from evaluating if it's worth the…

Yeah, I know, and I'm not worried about getting the required 6 stars rating. I'm more interested in how the house is going to perform in reality than academic simulation.…

90% is a bit too high.. especially for people that were born in here. I have met quite a few that enjoy the outdoors on a 36℃ day!

Sorry Dis but I have to disagree with most of your statements.
This is plain wrong. Low E glass affect both thermal and solar efficiency. Happy to be corrected on this…
