I will heat loss calculation, heating load and heat pump sizing for hvac design
Professional Engineer
About this Gig
Need a heat loss calculation, heating load analysis, or the right heat pump size for your building?
I provide project specific heating calculations and heat pump sizing to help determine the heating capacity required for residential and light commercial properties.
Choosing a heat pump based only on square footage or a rule of thumb can result in poor comfort, excessive cycling, insufficient heating capacity, or unnecessary operating costs. I calculate the building's heating requirement using the available project information and use the results to support appropriate heat pump selection.
MY SERVICES INCLUDE:
- Whole building heat loss calculation
- Heating load calculation
- Room by room heat loss
- Heat pump sizing
- Heat pump capacity selection
- Air source heat pump sizing
- Ducted heat pump sizing
- Ductless heat pump sizing
- Heating equipment comparison
- Design temperature analysis
- Building envelope heat-loss analysis
- Btu/hr and kW results
- Professional PDF calculation report

FAQ
Can you calculate the heat loss of my house?
Yes. I can calculate the whole building heating requirement and, depending on the package, provide a room by room heat loss breakdown. The calculation is based on the available building dimensions, construction details, insulation, windows, doors, location, and design conditions.
What type of heat pumps can you size?
I can work with applicable air source, ducted, and ductless heat pump projects. If you already have a preferred manufacturer or model, provide the equipment information so its capacity can be reviewed against the calculated load.
Why is heat loss important for heat pump sizing?
Heat pumps should be selected according to the building's actual heating requirement and the equipment's capacity at relevant outdoor temperatures. Using only floor area or a general sizing rule can result in an unsuitable system.
Do you provide room by room heat loss calculations?
Yes. Room by room heating loads are included in the Standard and Premium packages, provided sufficient project information is available.
Do you provide Manual J calculations?
The calculations can follow Manual J principles where applicable, but this gig is specifically positioned around heat loss and heat pump sizing. If you need a complete Manual J, D and S permit package, contact me before ordering.
Can you size a heat pump for a commercial building?
I can handle residential and light commercial projects within the stated package limits. Larger or more complex commercial projects should be discussed before ordering.
