PLRS Day 1: Load Calculation & Load Reduction
Day 1 of the PLRS certification is focused on accurate load calculation using Conduit Tech and identifying meaningful opportunities for permanent load reduction. Attendees will walk through the Manual J input process while learning to evaluate envelope improvements that can downsize HVAC demand and improve comfort.
Topics Covered:
- Manual J fundamentals with an outcome-based approach
- Hands-on practice with Conduit Tech
- Evaluating blower door results and infiltration loads
- Identifying cost-effective envelope upgrades
- Sizing to the load—not the contractor’s guess
Outcome:
Participants will leave with a complete Manual J for a sample project and a verified understanding of how to apply load reduction strategies to real buildings.
