Climate zones have a significant impact on energy efficiency.

Different areas of Australia are considered as different ‘climate zones’. For example, the very far north of the country is Zone 1 (Tropical), while the far south is Zone 8 (Alpine). The most effective windows for energy efficiency performance will change depending on where you live…
