Our HVAC Design and Leakage Testing Services

  • Manual J: Our calculations begin with a thorough look at everything from ceiling height, insulation status, window placement, sunlight exposure, household size, layout, and more to come up with the exact amount of heating and cooling power your home needs. This information translates into the next calculations.
  • Manual D: After your Manual J is complete, the Manual D takes the data it provides to create the perfect layout and sizing of your ductwork. Successfully setting up ductwork is vital for energy efficiency and airflow around your home.
  • Manual S: Once everything else is taken care of, that information is brought over into the Manual S to pair you up with the perfect HVAC equipment. This data helps prevent inaccurate installations that will end up costing you more money than you ever needed to spend.

Blower Door Testing

A successful HVAC system can suffer if there are gaps in your insulation and sealing. Blower door tests bring in calibrated fans and other testing methods to push air through your home and discover where it leaks into the outdoors or untreated areas like attics and crawlspaces. Sealing up leaks and supporting your insulation is key to keeping your HVAC system performing at peak efficiency.

Duct Blasting Testing

Did you know that leaky ducts can cause you to lose out on almost 30% of your home’s treated air before it even gets to your rooms? Stopping leaky ductwork starts with duct blasting tests that track how air moves through your ducts to identify leaks, lower your energy bills and even reduce your overall carbon footprint.

Frequently Asked Questions

My home passed inspection, but the HVAC system isn’t performing, why?

While it’s great that your home passed inspection, that doesn’t mean HVAC sizing and ductwork issues are always looked at with a close enough eye. Getting separate Manual J, D, and S load calculations in Mandeville, LA, ensures that everything related to your HVAC system is perfectly sized and laid out.

Why doesn’t my new room addition cool like the rest of my house?

If all of your load calculations were completed before your addition was wrapped up, your cooling power doesn’t account for the new space. It’s always a good idea to run a new set of calculations after you wrap up a major change to your home.

Do I still need a load calculation if my home is on the smaller side?

Yes! The size of your house doesn’t mean a load calculation isn’t necessary. We’ll still need to go over all the same factors as we would for a larger space to ensure your HVAC system is efficient and properly sized.
