Measuring for Harvey
Harvey replacement windows use pocket installation. Measure the existing window opening from jamb liner to jamb liner at three points for width and two points for height. Use the smallest measurements and deduct 1/8 to 1/4 inch per Harvey's sizing guide.
For new construction, Harvey specifies rough opening dimensions per window type and size in their product catalogs. In cold climates, note whether the wall has exterior foam insulation as this affects extension jamb requirements and flashing details.
- Replacement: measure jamb liner to jamb liner.
- Three widths, two heights, use smallest.
- Deduct 1/8" to 1/4" per Harvey sizing guide.
- Note exterior insulation for extension jamb planning.
Pro tip: Harvey is popular in the Northeast — if you work cold-climate drawings, note the NFRC U-factor and SHGC values in the tag notes. This helps spec the right glass package for energy code compliance.
Energy & Cold Climate Performance
Harvey windows are designed with Northeast winters in mind. The Tribute series meets ENERGY STAR Northern Zone criteria and offers triple-pane glass options for extreme cold. Warm-edge spacer systems reduce condensation on interior glass surfaces.
For code compliance, Harvey publishes NFRC-certified U-factor, SHGC, VT, and air infiltration ratings per product. When documenting, including these values in your drawing notes ensures the specified products meet the local energy code requirements.
