No one needs to do a load calc.

[JimmyP]

The Carrier guy said he doesn't need to know any of that information and I was looking to install a greenspeed. all he said to me was he recommends a performance model and it is more common. he asked me to send him the house plans.

The Whestinghouse said I needed a 3 ton without a load cals.

I cant get a response from anyone when I ask them to do a load cals.

What do I do when I can't install it myself.

I know I need a 2 ton for cooling and a 2 ton for heating, I would like to have a 2.5 ton for heating in the northing environment.

I have a heat gain of 21475 and a heat loss of 24672. this is baesd on 7 degrees. so a 2 ton is all I need.

Everyone here seems to go by rule of thumb.

Problem is we are isolated in St. John's NL canada and there are a handful of people that do this. Cost is 10 fold of what you would normally pay. I don't mind paying the cost i just want it done how it should be done.

[jtrammel]

Fly me up, I'll do it for 10x what I would normally get for a 2 ton inverter drive heat pump and duct system...lol Just keep looking and demand a load calc etc. I'm guessing there is no one in your area on the contractor locator on this site or the ones I linked or www.resnet.us www.natex.org

We should start a buisness with all propper QC

[JimmyP]

I would like to think there are alot of qualified and good HVAC people here I think they use ROT more than necessary

[JimmyP]

I should say use the ROT more than they should or never use it at all

Find out who the local distributor is of your desired equipment and call them, explaining that you would like a dealer that will do a Manual J. Or if they would be able to complete one on your home.

Small town no distributor, 3 or 7 indipendent HVAC installers. Someone I know had a 5 ton installed on on r2000 home ? go figure

There buying the equipment from a distributor, do a little on line research and find there source.

I know what I want. I have the load calc done and I would like the york YHJF 2.5 or the Trane 15 2.5

[JimmyP]

It is frustrating when no one answers phones or e-mails. Guess they are to busy and don't need my buisness.

[JimmyP]

I know pricing isn't allowed but I could buy a nice new car for what they wanted for a westinghouse 3 ton and he didn't even see my place

I could get away with the 2 ton and Aux heat.

I re did all my Load calc's and I now have 24067 cooling and 24166 heating @ 10 degFfor winter and 85 for summer . A inside temp of 72 in winter and 77 in summer.


I have someone coming to do load calc and give me an estimate, within the next week They do mostly industrial refrigeration but also do residential HVAC. They said they can install almost any product that I want. The do a fair amount of the Mitsubishi Zuba that I had never heard of but I have read some good things about them here. Though It may be too large for my needs.
