While highly useful for budgeting and preliminary space planning, check figures are and cannot replace a formal Manual J (residential) or Manual N (commercial) load calculation. 📊 Common Cooling Load Check Figures | Building Type | Standard Range (sq ft/ton)

COOLING LOAD CHECK FIGURE

A is a "rule of thumb" used by HVAC engineers and contractors to quickly estimate the cooling capacity (in BTUs or Tons) required for a building before performing detailed manual or software calculations. These figures are typically expressed in square feet per ton (sq. ft/ton) or BTUs per square foot (BTU/sq. ft) . These figures are typically expressed in square feet
