Recommendations to keep in mind when making an addition to your home

When you want to expand an area of ​​your home, remember that this area also needs an HVAC system, so you should call an HVAC professional because this system requires a series of considerations that we must take into account:

1st consideration:

 

A “J” calculation manual is a manual that will give us the exact calculation of the size of the HVAC machine and correct size of the duct work that each  new space needs or determine if the existing machine needs to increase its capacity.

Regularization: Comply with the minimum standards and codes required by each county for the well-being and safety of the occupants of these spaces to be remodeled.

2nd consideration:

Zoning: If your addition creates different temperature zones, you might consider implementing zoning to control comfort in each area independently.

 

3rd consideration:

System type: Decide whether it is best to extend the existing system or install a separate system for the expansion, based on cost, efficiency and ease of installation.

Remember that every situation is unique, so it’s important to consult with an HVAC expert before making any additions to ensure the system is the right fit for your needs.
