What the climate around Lee's Summit means for windows

For homes around Lee's Summit, heating dominates: prioritize a low U-factor and tight air leakage on the NFRC label, because limiting winter heat loss is where window performance pays off here. The station's annual mean temperature is near 56°F with about 38 inches of precipitation, so flashing and water management around the opening deserve the same written attention as the glass package.

Climate figures are NOAA 1991-2020 normals recorded at LEES SUMMIT MUNI AP, MO US (near Lee's Summit); they describe the recording station's location, not any specific property.

Comparing window performance the measurable way

Missouri's ENERGY STAR Version 7.0 zone criteria (Northern: U-factor ≤ 0.22, SHGC ≥ 0.17; North-Central: U-factor ≤ 0.25, SHGC ≤ 0.40; South-Central: U-factor ≤ 0.28, SHGC ≤ 0.23) set the qualifying levels; the county's zone determines which applies to a Lee's Summit home. Whole-product NFRC ratings on the exact quoted window are the comparable basis, and no rating supports a guaranteed savings figure for an individual home.
