Whole-window thermal performance

Window & door
energy performance.

Need the U-Value and SHGC of a window or glazed door, but do not need the product submitted to WERS? SIIGMATIC can analyse the complete product using applicable AFRC / NFRC fenestration procedures and provide a detailed energy-performance report for your nominated system.

What this service actually is

The same performance question.
A different reporting pathway.

WERS is an Australian rating scheme administered by AGWA. Products submitted through WERS follow the scheme's simulation, audit and certification process and can be published in the WERS certified product directories.

A SIIGMATIC energy performance report answers the underlying technical question — how the complete window or glazed door performs — without automatically submitting the result to WERS. It can provide whole-product thermal and solar performance data for the nominated frame and glazing configuration, with the reporting status clearly identified.

This can be useful for product development, overseas manufacturers, client-specific reporting, early market assessment or situations where a formal WERS listing is not required.

Whole-product means whole-product

Glass alone does not
tell you the window.

Whole-window performance brings together the frame, glazing, spacer / edge effects, operating configuration and geometry. The report is therefore about the nominated window or door system, not simply the centre-of-glass value.

U-ValueRate of heat transfer through the complete product. Lower is generally better for insulation.
SHGCFraction of incident solar heat admitted through the complete product.
Overseas manufacturer?
