How to draw a block calculation sketch.
Block Or whole house calculations. The information in a sketch is much more important than the artistry of the sketch. 1. Draw the perimeter of the structure. If you can't draw to scale, then please be symetrical. If you have one side of your house that is 45 ft. long and another side 30 ft.long, then the 30 ft. line should appear to be nearly 2/3 the length of the 45 ft. line. Label the length of each side.Graph paper can be very helpful in this endeavor. 2. Label which floor you are working on. 3. Label the front of your house as front. 4. label which direction the front of the house faces. 5. In the center write the ceiling height. 6. If it is a basement indicate how much of the baement wall on each side is above the ground. 7. Indicate windows with small slashes across your perimeter lines where windows are located. 8. Label the window dimensions, for instance 2'6" x 3'3". 9. Doors should be drawn with a short line at a 45 degree angle from the perimeter. 10. label the door dimensions. 11. Label the wall composition on each floor. for instance, most basements simply have concrete block. While upper walls frequently have siding or bricks, celotex or plywood cladding, wood studs, with or without insulation, drywall and an interior finish. Do this for each floor of the house. 12. Tell us how much and what type of insulation you have in the attic. 13. Fax this information with your phone # and email to 412-203-2094. From this point forward we can begin to determine your comfort and efficiency needs

Rescheck and Florida Energy Gauge
Rescheck and Florida Energy gauge are essential to receive building permits in States that follow IRC 2006 or Florida code. They appear to be a simple report. Unfortunately with too many windows or insufficient insulation, because of energy trade-offs, they can become complex in a hurry.
Therefore if we have done your heat loss and heat gain calculations, we will perform either of these reports for $79.00 for an addition.
Or $99.00 for the entire house.
