Lines sold in Alberta, checked against zone 7B
"Meets" means the line's best published NFRC or CSA rating is within 1.40 W/(m²·K) (U-0.25). Codes need rated values, so a line without them shows "Not published" until the manufacturer publishes them. Ask the sales rep for the rating of your exact configuration.
