HVAC Load Calculations

The State of Florida requires ACCA Manual J^® HVAC load calculations for:

All new residential buildings prior to construction
New home additions
Certain home renovations
Moisture intrusion diagnoses

We use industry-leading RHVAC software to complete these calculations with the utmost precision.

Energy Code Calculations

The best way to find out whether your single-or multi-family residence is compliant with Florida Energy Code is to have Calcs-Plus complete the calculations. We use EnergyGauge software to determine whether your building is compliant, and if it isn’t, we use the data to identify solutions to achieve compliance.

HVAC Duct/System Design

We also provide HVAC duct and system design services for commercial and residential buildings, using Manual J, S^®, and D^® calculations to select the most effective equipment and design a system that promotes proper air flow throughout your building.

Blower Door Testing

Before you can obtain a Certificate of Occupancy, the State of Florida requires that blower door testing be completed at your building. It is used to determine whether the building is airtight and compliant with Florida Energy Code.

Duct Leakage to Outside Testing

At times, the State of Florida will require duct leakage to outside testing to be completed after a blower door test at a building. These tests can be completed on the same day and, if you choose Calcs-Plus, by the same team.

Annual Energy Diagnostics

Calcs-Plus can complete annual energy diagnostics to keep you informed about your building’s energy usage over time, creating in-depth reports using data about the climate, insulation levels, and HVAC system type. These diagnostics are also used to determine energy use for solar or generator installations.

Acoustics, Noise Control & Vibration Management

Your commercial building’s acoustics may be affecting its HVAC system’s performance. Calcs-Plus, through our Vintec Acoustics division, offers diagnostic and optimization services to identify any noise and vibration issues from your HVAC system that may impact the building environment. Additional services include on-site acoustic testing and vibration compliance monitoring, environmental noise control, code-driven acoustic assessments, and many more.
