2 ASTM C THERMAL PERFORMANCE TEST REPORT Rendered to: UNIVERSAL PULTRUSIONS, LLC PO Box 1289, 100 Tillco Drive Marshall, Arkansas Report No: Test Date: Report Date: Expiration Date: 03/21/12 04/09/12 03/21/16 Test Sample Identification: Series/Model: Fiberglass Door Slab Overall Size: 35-3/4" wide x 84" tall Test Procedure: The thermal performance was determined in general accordance with ASTM C , Standard Test Method for the Thermal Performance of Building Assemblies by Means of Hot Box Apparatus. Test Results Summary: Thermal Transmittance, U-factor (U): Overall Thermal Resistance(Air-to-Air), (Ru): Thermal Resistance(Surface-to-Surface), (Rc): Btu/hr.ft².F (hr.ft².f)/btu (hr.ft².f)/btu 849 Western Avenue North St. Paul, MN phone: fax:

3 Page 2 of 6 Test Sample Description Overall Size: 35-3/4" wide x 84" tall Specimen Thickness: 1-3/4" Construction: The specimen was comprised of a 1-1/2" thick polyisocyanurate core sandwiched between two 0.135" thick fiberglass skins. Measured Test Data Areas 1. Test Specimen Projected Area (As) ft 2 2. Metering Box Opening Area (Amb) ft 2 3. Metering Box Baffle Area (Ab1) ft 2 Heat Flows 1. Total Measured Input into Metering Box (Qtotal) Btu/hr 2. Metering Box Wall Heat Flow (Qmb) Btu/hr 3. EMF vs Heat Flow Equation (equivalent information) *EMF Net Specimen Heat Loss (Qs) Btu/hr The sample was inspected for the formation of frost or condensation, which may influence the surface temperature measurements. The sample showed no evidence of condensation/frost at the conclusion of the test. A calibration of the ATI 'thermal test chamber' in St. Paul, Minnesota was conducted in October 2011.
