Manual J Heat Load Calculation

A Manual J heat load calculation is used to properly size the heating and cooling equipment in a house based on the actual energy characteristics of the house.  These include insulation, windows, site location, orientation, etc.  A Manual J heat load calculation is the first phase of designing a high-performing HVAC system for a home and is required in local building codes.

Home Shutdown Report
A "Home Shutdown" report gives homeowners or property managers a list of things to do when the home will be unoccupied for a significant time period. The report identifies ways of reducing energy use and thus saving money through turning items off, setting temperatures back, and minimizing un-neccessary energy use. Care is taken to ensure damage will not occur due to frozen pipes or other sensitive systems.
