Masonite Exterior Doors

ENERGY STAR ® is a program developed by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency and the U.S. Department of Energy. The goal of the program is to protect the environment and save you money by encouraging energy efficient products, services and practices. To that end, Masonite is proud to produce a wide variety of door and glass combinations that ensure our products can be used as part of an ENERGY STAR ® –qualified assembled door system. Masonite doors and sidelites include a premium polyurethane foam core that insulates up to five times better than wood. Our triple–pane decorative glass with caming creates an excellent insulator against the cold in the winter and the heat of summer. A properly installed ENERGY STAR ® - qualified door system can save you money all year. Our NFRC-certified door systems may qualify for the ENERGY STAR ® program. Other criteria exist for eligibility, including U-Factor and Solar Heat Gain Coefficients. Use the charts below as a general guideline for which Masonite products may qualify. For further information, see our website at: www.masonite.com 1.  U-FACTOR: Measures the rate of heat transfer through a product. It considers all elements of an assembly including conductivity, air fl w and glass emissivity. A lower U-Factor indicates a better–insulating product. 2.  SHGC (SOLAR HEAT GAIN COEFFICIENT): Measures the amount of energy that passes through glass from the sun, creating additional heat. The lower the SHGC, the better it blocks solar heat.
