When you need to install a new HVAC system in your building, HVAC design is where you should start. HVAC Essentials performs the relevant calculations of Manuals J, S, & D in Arizona to help you choose correctly sized equipment and ductwork for your needs. Some jurisdictions may require them in order to install new HVAC equipment. In Phoenix, for instance, these manuals are required in order to complete your HVAC installation project. Manual J is used to calculate your home’s specific demand for cooling and heating through complex tables that take into account insulation, number of windows and their orientation, your local climate, and more. When you’ve received a result from Manual J, Manual S will take that information and help you choose the right size of HVAC equipment. It looks at how much heat and humidity the system will be able to remove under hot conditions and how much heat it can provide under cold conditions. It matches that with the demand calculated by Manual J. Manual D will take both of the aforementioned manual results and determine what size and configuration is needed for the ductwork. All of these manuals are integral to an efficient HVAC system and a comfortable home.

The way heat works is it always wants to move from a warmer area to a cooler area. If it’s colder outside of your home than inside, the heat inside will want to leave your home through any means necessary, including your walls, doors, windows, and roof. This movement of heat out of your home is called heat loss, and it’s one of the factors that Manual S takes into account when determining the equipment size your home needs.
