Stop Waiting Days for Quotes. Stop Resubmitting Failed Calcs.
Live answers in 15 minutes. Florida Building Code-compliant calculations that pass inspection the first time. No delays. No rejections. No excuses.
The Two Problems Florida Professionals Face Every Day
β Slow Response Times
You email for an HVAC load calculation quote. No response for 3 days. You call. Voicemail. You call back. Still voicemail. Your project deadline is approaching and you're STUCK waiting for someone to just answer you.
β ProCalcs answers: Emails in 15 minutes. Live phone (no voicemail). Same-day quotes.
β Failed Permit Submissions
You paid for Manual J calculations. You submitted them to the building department. They send them back: wrong window values, wrong insulation specs, doesn't match your plans. Now you're delayed, your client is angry, and your reputation takes a hit.
β ProCalcs gets it right: We verify actual product specs. We match your plans. First-time approval.
"Why Do You Ask So Many Questions About My Project?"
Because we've seen what happens when HVAC calculation companies don't ask the right questions.
Other calculation services use generic window values. They guess at insulation specs. They assume standard construction. Then your plans get rejected by Miami-Dade, Broward, or your local building department because the calculations don't match reality.
- Actual window SHGC and U-factors (not generic assumptions)
- Real insulation type and R-values (spray foam vs batt makes a difference)
- The products you're actually installing (not what "usually" gets installed)
- Florida-specific construction details (climate zones, hurricane requirements, coastal considerations)
Yes, it takes 5 extra minutes to provide this information.
But it saves you days of permit delays and expensive resubmittal fees.
We don't guess. We ask. We verify. We get your HVAC calculations right.
That's why architects, builders, and HVAC contractors across Floridaβfrom Jacksonville to Miami, Tampa to Orlandoβchoose ProCalcs when accuracy matters and deadlines are tight.
Florida-Specific HVAC Calculation Expertise
Florida Building Code Compliance
We stay current with the 2023 Florida Building Code, 8th Edition (effective December 31, 2023). All Manual J, Manual D, and Manual S calculations comply with Florida's energy conservation requirements and mechanical code standards.
Climate Zones for HVAC
Florida spans two IECC climate zones:
Climate Zone 1 (Hot-Humid): Miami-Dade, Broward, Palm Beach, and select southern counties
Climate Zone 2 (Hot-Humid): Remainder of the state including Tampa, Orlando, Jacksonville
We apply the correct climate zone requirements for your specific county.
Hurricane & Coastal Requirements
Florida's unique coastal and hurricane requirements mean HVAC load calculations must account for:
- Impact-rated fenestration requirements
- High-Velocity Hurricane Zone (HVHZ) standards
- Coastal flood zone regulations
- Wind load considerations
We understand these requirements and factor them into every calculation.
Energy Performance Requirements
Florida's 8th Edition code requires residential buildings to achieve an Energy Performance Index of 95 or better (5% more efficient than previous code).
We ensure your HVAC project meets these enhanced energy efficiency standards.
