Title: NFRC 101. How Does the NFRC Rating System Work?

Intended Audience: Introductory

Program Length: 60 Minutes

Learning Units: 1AIA Unit

Program Description:

The program discusses NFRC energy performance ratings as the nation’s primary mechanism for achieving or exceeding fenestration building energy code compliance. The program explains the exacting process that drives the development and implementation of this mechanism. It guides participants on a journey, beginning with how NFRC creates databases containing fenestration component energy performance information and showing how fenestration product manufacturers use these data to design their products.

Learning Objectives:

1) Understand how to interpret the NFRC energy performance rating label.

2) Understand NFRC placement in ASHRAE and IECC codes and learn how to use the NFRC label to meet/exceed building energy codes.

3) Understand how simulators use NFRC ratings to confirm thermal performance and how laboratories confirm performance, authorizing manufacturers to affix the NFRC labels to their products.
