NFRC Bid Reports

CMAST NFRC 100 System U-Value and NFRC 200 SHGC simulations, prepared in-house by registered Approved Calculation Entities.

What we provide

Energy code documentation for your fenestration

Both Rick and Matt are registered NFRC Approved Calculation Entities (ACE), so the simulations are run here rather than sent out.

The IECC requires that fenestration U-factor and SHGC be determined in accordance with NFRC procedures. For commercial projects that means a whole-product rating built from the specific framing series, glass make-up and spacer on your job — not a catalogue number.

  • NFRC 100 System U-Value simulations via CMAST
  • NFRC 200 SHGC and visible transmittance
  • Documentation to demonstrate IECC energy code compliance
  • Product selection guidance for storefront, curtainwall and entrances

How it works

What we need from you

The more of this you can send with the request, the faster the report comes back.

The project

Project name, location and bid date. Location matters — the applicable code and climate zone follow from it.

The system

Framing series and configuration — storefront, curtainwall, window wall or entrances — along with the finish and any thermal break.

The glass

Glass make-up and spacer. If the specification sets a target U-factor or SHGC, send that too and we will work to it.

Not sure of the make-up yet? Send the plans and specifications and we will work from those.
