All HVAC & Energy calculators

Heating and cooling decisions with real numbers

Heating equipment choices come down to energy prices, efficiency and age. These calculators turn COP, AFUE, lifespans and filter intervals into transparent comparisons you can adjust to your own bills and quotes.

Results are planning estimates. Final sizing and installation must follow the codes adopted where you live and be confirmed by a licensed professional.

Frequently asked questions

Are these HVAC load calculations?

No. They compare operating costs and equipment decisions. Sizing a system requires a room-by-room load calculation (such as Manual J) by an HVAC professional.

Which prices should I use?

Use the marginal price from your own recent bills — total charges divided by kWh, therms or gallons — for the most realistic comparison.
