Asymmetrical Shading?
Casements, ‘Lift+Slide’ or any other mulled window type will have a much larger side reveal on one side than the other. However, PHPP only allows for the input of a single value for the d reveal and so an average value should be used in these cases.

This value is entered as an additional reduction factor. The calculation of the reveal shading now only takes place using the actual window reveal of a few inches [OReveal-2].

'Other’ Shading Screens, louvers, railings, and other elements will also all contribute to the shading of glazing units. In order to take this into account, the total shading factor (%) is entered for both the summer and winter seasons. These shading factors can be calculated in many ways, depending on the specific element under consideration. Consult your certifier for specific calculations for your project and products being used. Values are entered as a single % for winter, and a single % for summer. (0%=fully shaded, 100%=no shading)

Temporary Shading For temporary summer shading, a special input is allowed to take into account deployable / moveable shading elements (either user or automatic operation). Some typical values are shown below: Triple Glazing Shading Type

Trees? For trees (especially deciduous trees) an additional calculation for the effect of their shading can also be entered as ‘other’ shading for winter and summer. See the PHPP Manual section 18.4.2 for more information on this calculation if you would like to try and use it.

PHPP Manual 18.4.6 Separate software for calculating shading “In principle, it is always possible to use special tools for calculating any kind of shading situation. A horizon line and the resulting reduction factor can now be determined almost automatically using the relevant hardware and software.” …. “It is not possible to use the results of a separate software for building certification. In this case, the standard shading algorithms of PHPP are always to be used.”
