Whole House Heat Load Calculations
This two day course covers the methods, skills and inspection techniques Building Analysts need to calculate whole house heat load. This course will detail the ACCA Manual J heat loss procedure, utilize Blower Door air leakage information to determine heat loss associated with infiltration, and determine duct loss associated with air-sealed duct systems. The information is then used to help select the most appropriate size of replacement furnace. This course includes a field day to inspect a house, gather information, complete the load calculation sheet and determine a replacement size. Heating Technician and Building Analyst Certification components are included in this class.
