Residential HVAC Sizing
(Heating, Ventilation, & Air Conditioning)
The rules of thumb for sizing today's new and sophisticated heating and air conditioning systems no longer apply. Proper heating and cooling loads need to be addressed, not only to new construction, but to retrofits, as well. HVAC loads should be matched to individual rooms or to meet the needs of the occupants. The solution is to design a system of correct size.
Midwest Energy's employees can perform an HVAC sizing for your home to ensure the equipment will operate efficiently. This sizing will generate a report that will allow your HVAC contractor to install the proper size of equipment.
- We measure the structure to determine the amount of conditioned space.
- We check attic and wall insulation.
- We record the size and type of windows, doors, opaque wall area, and the orientation of each.
- We take into account the color of the roof, along with the number of occupants, lights, and appliances.
- These field notes are then used as input data for our computer.
- Fees for non-customers are higher based on distance and travel time.
When purchasing a properly-sized residential system, you can save money on the initial equipment, and you'll avoid the unnecessary operating costs of a larger unit every month for the life of the new system.
The end result: an accurate heating and cooling load calculation that gives you the highest efficiency and best comfort that can be expected from a residential system.
