Line 1 Windows (cooling): In the column AREA SQ FT, 
ll in the total square footage of all exposed windows and 
glass doors, based on the direction they are facing. Multiply 
the square footages by the appropriate factors and enter 
results in the column COOL BTU (see Figure 1.5).
Line 2 Glass Doors (heating): For heating installations, 
in the column AREA SQ FT, ll in the total square footage 
of all exposed glass doors. Multiply the square footage 
by the factor and enter result in the column HEAT BTU.
Line 3 Windows (heating): For heating installations, in 
the column AREA SQ FT, ll in the total square footage 
of all exposed windows. Multiply the square footage by 
the factor and enter result in the column HEAT BTU.
Line 4 Standard Doors: In the column AREA SQ FT, ll 
in the total square footage of all exposed standard doors 
(non-glass). Multiply the square footage by the factor and 
enter result in the column COOL BTU(HEAT BTU). 
Line 5 Partitions:  In  the  column AREA  SQ  FT,  ll  in 
the total square footage of all partitions (less doors and 
windows). Multiply the square footage by the factor and 
enter result in the column COOL BTU (HEAT BTU).
Line 6 Exposed Wall: In the column AREA SQ FT, 
subtract the square footages in lines 1, 2, 3, 4, & 5 from 
the total exposed wall square footage and enter the result. 
Multiply the square footage by the factor and enter 
result in the column COOL BTU(HEAT BTU).
Line 7 Ceiling/Roof and Line 8 Floor: In the column 
AREA  SQ  FT,  ll  in  the  total  square  footage  of  the 
ceilings and oors. Multiply the square footage by the 
factors and enter the results in the column COOL BTU 
(HEAT BTU).
Line  9  Ventilation/lnltration: Incoming outside air, 
from  either  mechanical  ventilation  or  inltration,  must 
be accounted for:
A. For  inltration  (no  mechanical  ventilation 
available, as in our example), in the column 
AREA  SQ  FT,  ll  in  the  square  footage  of 
the total exposed walls. Multiply the square 
footage by the factor and enter result in the 
column COOL BTU (HEAT BTU).
B. If mechanical ventilation is available, select 
the appropriate factor from Table 1 (Kwik-Way 
sheet). Multiply the factor by the CFM of the 
mechanical ventilation and enter result in the 
column COOL BTU (HEAT BTU). 
Line 10 People: In the column AREA SQ FT, ll in the 
total number of people living in the home. Multiply the 
number by the factor of 300 (constant) and enter result 
in the column COOL BTU.
