EA-focused Residential Heat Loss and Heat Gain Calculations Course

With a focus on EAs and their work, Dan Boyd will discuss the differences and similarities between F280-12 heat loss/gain calculations, and provide specific examples by comparing HOT2000 inputs and outputs with values derived using HRAI procedures. Based on CSA Standard F280-12, participants gain a firsthand introduction to the basic principles of building science and heat loss/gain. Through a variety of in-class exercises, participants will learn how to:

● Determine the thermal resistance (R-value) of various building assemblies, such as walls and ceilings;

CSA F280 Whole-house Design Heat Loss and Gain Calculations: Understanding and Implementing Efficient Design Principles

Registered EAs delivering the EnerGuide Rating System (ERS) will be able to perform accurate whole-house design heat loss and gain calculations using verified software for existing housing in the retrofit market to help with the sizing of the heating and cooling equipment based primarily on the information collected during a home energy evaluation, with a little additional F280-compliant information as needed. By completing the course, this is a service you can offer homeowners and contractors, providing a value an HVAC professional can use to size a heat pump
