About Our HVAC Calculations & Additional Services
Calcs-Plus offers our clients fast and accurate services to help them get projects approved and move quickly from the design stage into the build stage. Here is a brief overview of all the ways in which we can assist you with your projects:
Commercial Services
From small commercial properties to large facilities, Calcs-Plus provides commercial HVAC calculations and related solutions for many different industries. We use industry-leading CHVAC software and our decades of experience to help you with:
- Load calculations (using ACCA and ASHRAE guidelines)
- Energy code calculations
- HVAC duct/system design (for light commercial buildings)
- Energy compliance reports (Florida Forms C405)
- Sealed mechanical HVAC plans
HVAC Load Calculations
Using RHVAC software, Calcs-Plus completes the ACCA Manual J® HVAC load calculations required by the State of Florida for:
- All new residential buildings prior to construction
- New home additions
- Certain home renovations
- Moisture intrusion diagnoses
Energy Code Calculations
Determining whether a single- or multi-family residence complies with Florida Energy Code involves energy code calculations, which Calcs-Plus can do using EnergyGauge software. In the event that our calculations show that a building is not compliant, we’ll provide alternative solutions for you to follow in order to achieve energy code compliance.
HVAC Duct/System Design
To ensure that your building’s HVAC system will be able to deliver optimal air flow to all of its areas, we use the results of our Manual J calculations and reference Manual S® and D® to both design HVAC systems and select the best equipment with which to build them. This service is available for commercial and residential building projects.
Blower Door Testing
Calcs-Plus can complete the blower door testing that the State of Florida requires before you can obtain a Certificate of Occupancy and to find a building compliant with the state energy code. This test determines whether a building is airtight and may be followed by duct leakage to outside testing.
Duct Leakage to Outside Testing
This test is used to measure a building’s air quality and energy efficiency, and it is completed after a blower door test. You won’t need to find another firm or contractor to complete duct leakage to outside testing—Calcs-Plus can complete this test as needed on the same day as your blower door testing.
Annual Energy Diagnostics
Our annual energy diagnostics provide helpful data using information about the climate, insulation levels, and your HVAC system type—and this can be used to help you move forward with an upcoming solar or generator installation.
Acoustics, Noise Control & Vibration Management
Did you know that a noisy HVAC system affects a commercial building’s acoustics, and that its HVAC system design can also cause noise and vibration issues? Calcs-Plus and our Vintec Acoustics division can help you overcome these issues with comprehensive diagnostic and optimization services for commercial buildings.
