It is recommended that participants attend this class prior to attending the Advanced ACCA Manual D class. This class provides a review of the ACCA Residential Design System and approved software, Manual D procedure, and proper documentation. Learn how to achieve efficiency compliance while optimizing duct work for competitive pricing and comfort. North American Technician Excellence (NATE) continuing education credits are available for this class.
It is recommended that participants take this course prior to attending the ACCA Manual D, Advanced Manual D. This computer-based class will cover whole house and room-by-room ACCA manual J Version 8 Load Calculation methods. The instructor will also review the ACCA Manual S Equipment Selection Manual.
Special Note: Computers will be provided, but students should have basic computer skills such as being able to save and rename files, and use a mouse to click and drag.

Many homeowners are considering changing ‘Gas Furnaces’ to ‘Heat Pumps’ to provide residential heating and cooling.
The Training builds upon the ACCA Wrightsoft series and focuses on the Science of correct sizing of Heat pump systems and includes a Wrightoft computer lab portion.
The session builds upon Manual ‘J’ and provides a foundation upon which Manual ‘H’ will be built.
It is recommended that attendees bring their own laptop preloaded with the Wrightsoft Demo software

As homes become tighter and use energy more efficiently, airflow and airflow balance is going to become increasingly important . Comfort and indoor environmental quality are dependent upon proper airflow into each room. The session starts with a classroom discussion covering the basic science and calculations involving airflow balance. Followed by a lab session that allows the material covered in the classroom to be put to practical use in a lab exercise.
Airflow measurements will be made with a flow grid and flow hood, other topics that will be demonstrated focus on the California Title 24 Part 6, approved Airflow measurement and Fan Watt efficacy calculations.
