This 16-hour class will focus on the proper
method to calculate heat loss for a residential home using a Manual J workbook
and spreadsheet. Information from the spreadsheet will be used to
calculate the heat loss for each room, and the entire house. Duct
design will incorporate information from the heat loss spreadsheet to design a
duct system to distribute the correct amount of air to each room to satisfy the
load. NOTE: This class qualifies for NATE Continuing Education
Hours.
We have scheduled a Load Calculation and Duct
Design class to run four Wednesday evenings on 12/18, 1/8, 1/15 & 1/22 at
the Training Center, Room 118, from 4:30 - 8:30 PM with Mario
Salute. A current dues receipt is mandatory to attend
class. WARM AIR
focus is on the first 2 nights of class; VENTILATION focus is on the last two
nights of class. Also note that a $100 check made payable to METRO JATC to hold your place in class is required but you will receive it back when you complete all four days. Please place your name and class J-LOAD in the memo and send to ATTN: JANA at METRO JATC, 3554 White Bear Ave. N., White Bear Lake, MN 55110
