What is a Heat Loss Calculation?
A Heat Loss Calculation is a scientific way of predicting how much heat will be lost from a building. The calculation takes into account the materials used in the construction of the building, the climate, and the number of people that will be using the space. By understanding how heat is lost, builders can make sure that their buildings are as energy efficient as possible.

Our Process
The first step is to identify the building’s external envelope which is everything that separates the conditioned space from the outside environment. This would include the walls, windows, doors, roof, and foundation.
Once you have identified all of the building’s external envelope, you need to measure the dimensions of each element. With those dimensions, you can then calculate the total surface area of the building’s external envelope.
The next step is to determine the building’s thermal transmittance or U-factor. The U-factor is a measure of how well heat flows through a material. The lower the U-factor, the better it is at insulating. To calculate the U-factor, you need to know the thermal conductivity of the material
