Juneau, Wisconsin falls within IECC Climate Zone 6A (Cold - Humid), a heating-dominated region with humid moisture conditions. HVAC contractors working in Juneau must use the official ASHRAE design temperatures of -9°F (99% winter) and 89°F (1% summer) when performing Manual J load calculations. These values represent the outdoor conditions your heating and cooling system must handle 99% and 1% of the year, respectively — ensuring proper equipment sizing without costly over- or under-sizing.

Because Zone 6A is heating-dominated, insulation levels are critical. Juneau homes require a minimum of R-20 wall insulation, R-49 ceiling insulation, and windows with a U-factor of 0.3 or lower per the IECC 2021 energy code.
