FOREWORD The National Fenestration Rating Council, Incorporated (NFRC) develops and operates a uniform rating system for energy and energy-related performance of fenestration an
6、d fenestration attachment products. The Rating System determines the U-factor, Solar Heat Gain Coefficient (SHGC), and Visible Transmittance (VT) of a product, which are mandatory ratings for labeling NFRC-certified products, and are mandatory ratings for inclusion on label certificates, and are sup
7、plemented by procedures for voluntary ratings of products for Air Leakage (AL), Ventilation Rating (VR), and Condensation Resistance. Together these rating procedures, as set forth in documents published by NFRC, are known as the NFRC Rating System. The NFRC Rating System employs computer simulation
8、 and physical testing by NFRC-accredited laboratories to establish energy and related performance ratings for fenestration and fenestration attachment product types. The NFRC Rating System is reinforced by a certification program under which NFRC-licensed responsible parties claiming NFRC product ce
9、rtification shall label and certify fenestration and fenestration attachment products to indicate those energy and related performance ratings, provided the ratings are authorized for certification by an NFRC-licensed Certification and Inspection Agency (IA). The requirements of the rating, certific
10、ation, and labeling programs (Certification Programs) are set forth in the most recent versions of the following as amended, updated, or interpreted from time to time: NFRC 700 Product Certification Program (PCP) NFRC 705 Component Modeling Approach (CMA) Product Certification Program (CMA-PCP) and
11、through the Certification Programs and the most recent versions of its companion programs as amended, updated, or interpreted from time to time: The laboratory accreditation program (Accreditation Program), as set forth in the NFRC 701 Laboratory Accreditation Program (LAP) The IA licensing program
12、(IA Program), as set forth in NFRC 702 Certification Agency Program (CAP) The CMA Approved Calculation Entity (ACE) licensing program (ACE Program) as set forth in the NFRC 708 Calculation Entity Approval Program (CEAP) ANSI/NFRC 100-2017E0A1 page iv 2013. National Fenestration Rating Council Incorp
13、orated (NFRC). All rights reserved. NFRC intends to ensure the integrity and uniformity of NFRC ratings, certification, and labeling by ensuring that responsible parties, testing and simulation laboratories, and IAs adhere to strict NFRC requirements. In order to participate in the Certification Pro
14、grams, a Manufacturer/Responsible Party shall rate a product whose energy and energy-related performance characteristics are to be certified in accordance with mandatory NFRC rating procedures. At present, a Manufacturer/Responsible Party may elect to rate products for U-factor, SHGC, VT, AL, conden
15、sation resistance, or any other procedure adopted by NFRC, and to include those ratings on the NFRC temporary label affixed to its products or on the NFRC Label Certificate. U-factor, SHGC and VT, AL, VR, and condensation resistance rating reports shall be obtained from a laboratory that has been ac
16、credited by NFRC in accordance with the requirements of the NFRC 701. The rating shall then be reviewed by an IA that has been licensed by NFRC in accordance with the requirements of the NFRC 702. NFRC-licensed IAs review label format and content, conduct in-plant inspections for quality assurance i
17、n accordance with the requirements of the NFRC 702, and issue a product Certification Authorization Report (CAR) and may approve for issuance an NFRC Label Certificate for site-built or CMA products and attachment products. The IA is also responsible for the investigation of potential violations (pr
18、ohibited activities) as set forth in the NFRC 707 Compliance and Monitoring Program (CAMP). Products that are labeled with the NFRC Temporary and Permanent Label, or products that are listed on an NFRC Label Certificate in accordance with NFRC requirements, are considered to be NFRC-certified. NFRC
19、maintains a Certified Products Directory (CPD), listing product lines and individual products selected by the Manufacturer/Responsible Party for which certification authorization has been granted. NFRC manages the Rating System and regulates the PCP, LAP, and CAP in accordance with the NFRC 700 (PCP
20、), the NFRC 701 (LAP), the NFRC 702 (CAP), the NFRC 705 (CMA-PCP), and the NFRC 708 (CEAP) procedures, and conducts compliance activities under all these programs as well as the NFRC 707 (CAMP). NFRC continues to develop the Rating System and each of the programs. NFRC owns all rights in and to each
21、 of the NFRC 700, NFRC 701, NFRC 702, NFRC 705, NFRC 707, NFRC 708 and each procedure, which is a component of the Rating System, as well as each of its registration marks, trade names, and other intellectual property. The structure of the NFRC programs and relationships among participants are shown
22、 in Figure 1, Figure 2, and Figure 3. For additional information on the roles of the IAs and laboratories and operation of the IA Program and Accreditation Program, see the NFRC 700 (PCP), NFRC 701 (LAP), and NFRC 702 (CAP) respectively.

National Fenestration Rating Council Incorporated (NFRC). All rights reserved. DISCLAIMER NFRC certification is the authorized act of a M
25、anufacturer/Responsible Party in: (a) labeling a fenestration or related attachment product with an NFRC Permanent Label and NFRC Temporary Label, or (b) generating a site built or CMA label certificate, either of which bears one or more energy performance ratings reported by NFRC-accredited simulat
26、ion and testing laboratories and authorized for certification by an NFRC-licensed IA. Each of these participants acts independently to report, authorize certification, and certify the energy-related ratings of fenestration and related attachment products. NFRC does not certify a product and certific
27、ation does not constitute a warranty of NFRC regarding any characteristic of a fenestration or fenestration-related attachment product. Certification is not an endorsement of or recommendation for any product or product line or any attribute of a product or product line. NFRC is not a merchant in th
28、e business of selling fenestration products or fenestration-related products, and therefore cannot warrant products as to their merchantability or fitness for a particular use.
