Simple Heating System Size: Washington State <br /> This heating system sizing calculator is based on the Prescriptive Requirements of the 2012 Washington State Energy Code(WSEC)and ACCA <br /> Manuals J and S.This calculator will calculate heating loads only.ACCA procedures for sizing cooling systems should be used to determine cooling_ <br /> loads. <br /> The glazing(window)and door portion of this calculator assumes the installed glazing and door products have an area weighted average U-factor of <br /> 0.30. The incorporated insulation requirements are the minimum prescriptive amounts specified by the 2012 WSEC. <br /> Please fill out all of the green drop-downs and boxes that are applicable to your project.As you make selections in the drop-downs for each section, <br /> some values will be calculated for you. If you do not see the selection you need in the drop-down options,please call the WSU Energy Extension <br /> Program at(360)956-2042 for assistance. <br /> Project Information Contact Information <br /> Platt 2435 <br /> Heating System Type: <br /> To see detailed instructions for each section,place your cursor on the word"Instructions". <br /> Design Temperature <br /> Instructions T.< < Design Temperature Difference(AT) 46 <br /> Lynnwood J# AT=Indoor(70 degrees)-Outdoor Design Temp <br /> Area of Building <br /> Conditioned Floor Area <br /> instructions Conditioned Floor Area(sq ft) <br /> Average Ceiling Height Conditioned Volume <br /> Instructions Average Ceiling Height(ft) 8.5 20,698 <br /> Glazing and Doors U-Factor X Area = UA <br /> Instructions 0.30 438 131.40 <br /> Insulation <br /> Attic U-Factor X Area = UA <br /> instructions -49, R 0.026 996. 25.90 <br /> Single Rafter or Joist Vaulted Ceilings U-Factor Area UA <br /> Instructions <br /> No Vaulted Ceilings in this project <br /> e�Wtlfifet4"3 <br /> Above Grade Walls(see Figure 1) U-Factor Area UA <br /> Instructions ( 0.056 . 2,500' 140.00 <br /> R-21 ... <br /> Floors U-Factor Area UA <br /> Instructions <br /> R-30 •.i U 0.029 470 13.63 <br /> • <br /> Below Grade Walls(see Figure 1) U-Factor Area UA <br /> Instructions <br /> No Below Grade Walls In this project. � --- <br /> Slab Below Grade(see Figure..
