Infiltration heating load from window type

The infiltration heating load (shown on the LS-C report) is reduced
roughly in half when I perform a parametric run that only replaces the
window type with one with poorer U-value and higher SHGC. The
infiltration cooling load is unchanged.

Any ideas why?
