The foundation of every mechanical design is the heat loss/heat gain report. This allows the mechanical designer to pick the proper size of equipment, and well as how much heating and cooling each individual room needs.

This is turn dictates the size and number of ducts and trunks involved in the ductwork, or the loop configuration for radiant heating.

If you’re building a new home, addition or considering a significant renovation to your existing home, this should be the first step on the mechanical side of your journey.

Heat loss and gain calculations are included in every one of our mechanical designs regardless of whether it’s forced air, radiant or another design type.
