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 Manuals <br /> J and S.This calculator will calculate heating loads only.ACCA procedures for sizing cooling systems should be used to determine cooling 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 0.30. <br /> 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,some <br /> 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 Program at <br /> (360)956-2042 for assistance. <br /> Project Information Contact Information <br /> Sheldon Anderson Sessa Engineering Services,LLC <br /> 1602 Colby Avenue Vincent Sessa,P.E. <br /> Everrett,WA 98201 (425)967-5522 <br /> Heating System Type: ®All Other Systems 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) 49 <br /> Everett Paine AFB AT=Indoor(70 degrees)-Outdoor Design Temp <br /> Area of Building <br /> Conditioned Floor Area <br /> Instructions Conditioned Floor Area(sq ft) 2,983 <br /> Average Ceiling Height Conditioned Volume <br /> Instructions Average Ceiling Height(ft) 9.0 26.847 <br /> Glazing and Doors U-Factor X Area = UA <br /> Instructions <br /> 0.30 361 108.30 <br /> Skylights U-Factor X Area = UA <br /> Instructions 0.50 0 <br /> Insulation <br /> Attic U-Factor X Area = UA <br /> Instructions <br /> R49 0.026 534 13.88 <br /> �J <br /> Single Rafter or Joist Vaulted Ceilings U-Factor X Area UA <br /> Instructions R-38 Vented ' 0.027 754 20.36 <br /> Above Grade Walls(see Figure 1) U-Factor X Area UA <br /> Instructions <br /> R-21 Intermediate0.056 2,566 143.70�� <br /> Floors U-Factor X Area UA <br /> Instructions - 0.029 260 7.54 <br /> R-30 <br /> Below Grade Walls(see ne. _ -.- • <br /> a_.� �_ <br /> Figure 1) U-Factor X Area UA <br /> Instructions 0.042 1,107 46.49 <br /> R-21 Interior '� <br /> Slab Below Grade(see Figure 1) F-Factor X Length UA <br /> Instructions 0.570 123 70.11 <br /> R-5 Thermal Break at slab edge ' - <br /> Slab on Grade(see Figure 1) F-Factor X Length UA <br /> Instructions No Slab on Grade in this project.
