Often referred to as a Manual J, a proper design of any HVAC project requires knowing the heating load or cooling load. The heating load is the number of BTUs required in the coldest day of the year in your region to keep the house at its design set point temperature.
Our calculation service ensures that the equipment for your project is sized correctly – and is based on many factors. An improperly sized system could mean a house that can’t keep warm in a cold winter, or an oversized system that leads to higher upfront and operating costs than required.
Getting this right is important!
We provide this service FREE of charge to all customers that purchase a packaged heat pump system from us. (note there is a small upfront fee, but this is credited back to you on your purchase invoice).
The process involves you uploading your building plans and reviewing them with our certified Heat Load Designer, who then provides you with a design analysis.

A Manual J calculation is an industry-standard assessment used to determine the precise heating and cooling load of your building. It calculates the exact number of BTUs needed to maintain your desired indoor temperature during the coldest or hottest days of the year.
Getting the right size for your heat pump is crucial for both indoor comfort and energy efficiency. An undersized system will struggle to heat your home during a cold winter, while an oversized system results in unnecessarily high upfront equipment costs and increased daily operating expenses.
Our professional heat load calculation service is priced at $0.10 per square foot of your building's area.
Yes! We offer this Manual J design service completely free of charge when you purchase a packaged heat pump system from us. While there is a small upfront fee to begin the process, it is fully credited back to you on your final equipment purchase invoice.
The process is simple: first, you upload your home's building plans. Next, you will review your project directly with our certified Heat Load Designer, who will then generate and provide a comprehensive design analysis tailored to your specific hydronic heating or cooling needs.
To provide an accurate design analysis and precise equipment sizing, you simply need to upload your detailed building plans or architectural blueprints so our designers can assess the specific dimensions and layout of your property.
Your Manual J calculation and hydronic heating design will be performed and reviewed directly by one of our in-house certified Heat Load Designers, ensuring professional and accurate HVAC sizing for your project.
Guessing your HVAC size often leads to an improperly sized system. If it's too small, your house won't stay warm. If it's too large, it will "short-cycle" (turn on and off too frequently), which reduces the lifespan of the equipment, fails to properly dehumidify the air, and inflates your utility bills.
