This tool will calculate heating loads only. ACCA procedures for sizing cooling systems should be used to determine cooling loads. Please complete the green drop-downs and boxes that are applicable to your project. As you make selections in the drop-downs for each section, some values will be calculated for you. If you do not see the selection you need in the drop-down options, please contact the WSU Energy Program at energycode@energy.wsu.edu or (360) 956-2042 for assistance. 313 Jefferson Ave NE Yelm WA 98597 Mountain Terrace Builders 360-458-1502 Above Grade Below Grade Figure 1.
