MCS Heat Load Calculator
The new MCS Heat Load Calculator is designed for certified installers to estimate the heating needs of homes by providing a general heat load figure for the whole property and for each room. This data helps in determining the maximum heat demand for correctly sizing a heating system and selecting appropriate heat emitters (such as radiators) for each room.
The new online tool will help MCS-certified low-carbon heating installers complete a BS EN 12831-1: 2017 compliant heat load calculation, as required in The Heat Pump Design Standard (MIS 3005-D) and The Biomass Installation Standard (MIS 3004).
Accessing the tool
The Heat Load Calculator is available for MCS certified installers and those who are in the process of gaining certification. Installers need to register for the tool – certified installers will use their MCS certification number, and the email address used to access the MID (MCS Installations Database) to get started.
For new applicants, they will need to register with their email address and business name to gain access from January.
More information is available by visiting the MCS Heat Load Calculator.
