How does the Heat Loss Calculator work?

Conductive loss: Q = U × A × ΔT (sum all surfaces) Then: Infiltration loss: Q = 1.08 × CFM × ΔT × air density Then: Total loss drives heating system size.

Can you give an example of how to use the Heat Loss Calculator?

Example: Input House 200 m², U-avg 0.5, ΔT 20K, 500 CFM infiltration gives a result of Total loss ~12 kW (heating system needed) (Detailed calc required).
