What the climate around Bossier City means for windows

For homes around Bossier City, heating and cooling both matter: compare U-factor and solar heat gain together on the NFRC label rather than optimizing one side of the year. The station's annual mean temperature is near 68°F with about 49 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 SHREVEPORT DWTN AP, LA US (near Bossier City); they describe the recording station's location, not any specific property.

Comparing window performance the measurable way

Louisiana's ENERGY STAR Version 7.0 zone criteria (South-Central: U-factor ≤ 0.28, SHGC ≤ 0.23; Southern: U-factor ≤ 0.32, SHGC ≤ 0.23) set the qualifying levels; the county's zone determines which applies to a Bossier City 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.
