Why Heat Loss / Heat Gain Calculations Matter in Muskoka

Muskoka’s climate is unique: freezing winters, humid summers, and seasonal occupancy patterns all place additional demands on HVAC systems. Professional load calculations are the foundation of a properly designed system.

Without accurate calculations, you risk:

  • Oversized equipment that short cycles

  • Undersized systems that struggle in extreme temperatures

  • Rooms that are too hot or too cold

  • Reduced system lifespan

  • Higher propane, hydro, or oil costs

  • More frequent maintenance issues

Our Muskoka Heat Loss / Gain Calculations ensure your HVAC system is sized precisely to your building’s structure and usage patterns—whether it’s a full-time residence or a seasonal cottage.

What’s Included in Our Load Calculation Reports

Every report is generated using advanced HVAC engineering software and your actual floor plans, elevations, insulation levels, and window specifications.

Our load calculations include:

 

✔ Winter Heat Loss Analysis

We determine how much heat escapes through:

  • Walls, floors, and ceilings
  • Windows and doors
  • Slab or crawl space areas
  • Ventilation and air leakage

This is critical for sizing furnaces, boilers, heat pumps, or radiant heating systems.

 

✔ Summer Heat Gain Analysis

We calculate how much heat enters from:

  • Solar exposure
  • High humidity
  • Appliances and lighting
  • Air infiltration and occupancy

This ensures your air conditioner or heat pump is properly sized for Muskoka’s hot summers.

 

✔ Equipment Sizing Recommendations

We provide professional sizing for:

  • Furnaces
  • Heat pumps
  • Air conditioners
  • Boilers and hydronic systems
  • Radiant heating equipment

✔ Room-by-Room Breakdown

Perfect for ductwork planning and zoning considerations—especially helpful in multi-level cottages or large open-concept homes.

All documentation is clear, installer-friendly, and permit-ready.
