HVAC Cooling Load Estimator

Estimate preliminary cooling capacity from floor area and adjustable envelope factors.

Calculator

Planning boundary: This is preliminary sizing only. Final equipment selection needs a qualified, standards-based load assessment.

How the calculation works

Cooling kW = area × base W/m² × climate × insulation × window factor ÷ 1,000 + occupant allowance.

How to use the result

This is preliminary sizing only. Final equipment selection needs a qualified, standards-based load assessment.
