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 /> Unit E3 Townhome Polygon Northwest <br /> Eclipse Jamie Aubrey <br /> Everett,Washington (425)586-7700 <br /> Heating System Type: O Forced Air Furnace 0 Heat Pump <br /> To see detailed instructions for each section,place your cursor on the word"Instructions". <br /> Design Temperature <br /> instructions .- - Design Temperature Difference(AT) 47 <br /> Everett 1C _ <br /> AT=Indoor(70 degrees)-Outdoor Design Temp <br /> Area of Building <br /> Conditioned Floor Area <br /> Instructions Conditioned Floor Area(sq ft) 1,560 <br /> Average Ceiling Height Conditioned Volume <br /> Instructions Average Ceiling Height(ft) 8.5 13,260 <br /> Glazing and Doors U-Factor X Area = UA <br /> Instructions 0.30 I 241 I 72.27 <br /> Insulation <br /> Attic U-Factor X Area = UA <br /> instructions I R I90.026 688 17.89 <br /> Single Rafter or Joist Vaulted Ceilings U-Factor Area UA <br /> Instructions .. _.. _ -- <br /> No Vaulted Ceilings in this project.
