Heat Loss Heat Gain Calc

Heat Loss/ Heat Gain Calculation

Need A Heat Loss Heat Gain Calculation for your Vancouver Project?

To adequately size a cooling or heating system, you'll need to complete a Heat Loss/ Heat Gain Calculation. We're fully certified to perform CSA F280-approved  Heat Loss/ Heat Gain calculations for renovation, new construction and retrofit projects.


These calculations are not only required as per the B.C. Building Code, but they also ensure your HVAC equipment is sized perfectly for your home or project.

What are the benefits of a Heat Loss/ Heat Gain Calculation for your project?

Other than the fact that a Heat Loss/ Heat Gain Calculation is mandatory according to the B.C. Building Code, your home and yourself will actually greatly benefit:


  1. Adequately Sized Heating and Cooling Equipment   Having a Heat Loss/ Heat Gain Calculation performed for your project will ensure your heating or cooling equipment is sized properly for your home.
  2. Save You Money on Energy  Perfectly sized HVAC equipment will operate exactly as the manufacturer designed them. No more over-cooling or under-heating your home! Your equipment will utilize less gas and electricity when perfectly sized.
  3. Much Better Comfortability Having perfectly sized HVAC equipment will ensure your equipment won't turn on and off frequently (short-cycling) or won't take a long time to turn off (long-cycling). This keeps your home closer to the temperature you desire it at to make your family comfortable.
  4. Less Equipment Breakdowns Perfectly sized equipment based on the Heat Loss/ Heat Gain calculations will have less breakdowns and will last longer because they'll be operating exactly as their manufacturer intended!

  • How much does a Heat Loss/ Heat Gain report cost?

    The average cost of a Heat Loss/ Heat Gain report in Vancouver, B.C. is $400-600 depending on the size of your home and project.


    This cost can vary based on the size of your home, whether or not you have drawings readily available and if the Heat Loss can be performed on-site or remotely.

  • Do curtains prevent heat loss?

    Yes! Curtains provide a layer in-between your home and your window, helping to provide loss of heat through your windows. A heavier curtain can help prevent greater loss of heat throughout the day.

  • How do you calculate heat loss through a wall?

    You can calculate the loss of heat through your wall by measuring the insulation value of each component of your wall. 


    You'll need to get the total area of each wall layer and find out it's R-value to calculate an accurate loss of heat.
