Plain English

The pages avoid unnecessary HVAC jargon and explain BTU, tonnage, insulation, sun exposure, and room size in beginner-friendly terms.

Estimate first

The tools provide a starting point only. Final sizing can depend on local climate, windows, construction, air leakage, and a Manual J load calculation.

No sales pressure

Version one has no affiliate links, ad scripts, product rankings, installer forms, price claims, rebates, or tax credit content.

Use the main calculator when you know the room length, width, ceiling height, sun exposure, insulation, occupants, and whether the space includes kitchen heat.
