U-Factor : Defines the amount of heat loss . The lower the value , the less heat is transmitted through the entry door . Solar Heat Gain Coefficient ( SHGC ): The portion of directly transmitted and absorbed solar energy that enters the interior . The lower the value , the less heat is transmitted through the entry .
Daylight Transmission / Visible Transmission ( DT / VT ): Measures how much light comes through the entry . The higher the value , from 0 to 1 , the more daylight is let in over the unit area of the entry .
The performance ratings above were developed by Architectural Testing using applicable NFRC procedures for determining whole product performance . The ratings are determined for a fixed set of conditions and specs .
When installed in the proper door , select RSL doorglass products meet regional ENERGY STAR ® thermal performance standards as defined by the U . S . Department of Energy ( DOE ) and Natural Resources-Canada ( NR-Can ). Energy efficiency ratings for RSL doorglass products vary by door construction , and the size and materials of doorglass assembly .
