Kentucky

Kentucky load calculations, from a Kentucky company.

LoadCalcs is a family business based in Lancaster, Kentucky. We have been sizing systems for Kentucky builders and contractors since 2017.

Climate

IECC Climate Zone 4A statewide: real heating and cooling seasons, so both the winter and summer loads drive the design.

What matters in Kentucky

  • Kentucky adopts a state residential code based on the IRC, which ties equipment sizing to Manual S and Manual J.
  • Heat pumps are a common choice here. Sizing them for heating and cooling at the same time is exactly what Manual S is for.
  • Basements and bonus rooms are where Kentucky homes most often go uneven. Room-by-room loads and a real duct design fix that on paper.

Services in Kentucky
