Not all Manual JSD and Energy Code services are created equal! Saving a few dollars now could cost you a lot later on. That's why you should choose me for all of your energy compliance or HVAC design needs. If you are a mechanical engineer doing HVAC projects, let me do the tedious code compliance documentation for you! I use Wrightsoft to produce Manual J reports based on your plans, either with specified insulation levels or code minimums, as well as Manual S reports based on your selected equipment line (or provide recommendations) and Manual D reports based on your layout or I can provide a layout from scratch. My reports are currently being used by engineers in California, Colorado, Maryland and Florida. I can also provide Manual T spreadsheets for correct register selection and placement to optimize airflow and mixing. For all reports I offer PDF page placement, putting the reports on your provided plan page template or my own page to match your plan size. I also offer a full layout overlay on your floor plan and/or structural plan for coordination and bidding. In addition, I provide Energy Code Compliance in all 50 states: -Title 24 in California, using EnergyPro software. Any kind of residential or non-res project. -Washington state energy forms, res and non-res -Oregon energy reports -Florida R405 reports using EnergyGuage or Wrightsoft -ResCheck for anywhere else in the country -Comcheck for anywhere else in the country No matter where you are, you can have confidence that I can handle your construction project. Even more important, I take the time to weigh all the options and ensure that you get the best results possible. The choices made in the energy calculations can have expensive consequences later. I have the experience necessary to ensure your projects’ compliance, not "by any means necessary", but "by the best means possible." This will save you money throughout your project. In addition to my experience in the energy and HVAC field, I have 20 years of experience as a carpenter, including many years as a contractor. This gives me a unique edge, in that I fully understand how houses are built and know them from the ground up. What does this mean for you? A smooth ride at the building department, and no nasty surprises down the road! So, make the right choice. Contact me regarding your upcoming project! You won't regret it.
