Performing a simple heat loss calculation on my house using Excel

In this video, I perform a simple heat loss survey on my house to give me a rough idea of my heat loss. I've started on the road to replacing my gas boiler with an air source heat pump, which I'm hoping with be a combination of DIY and professional (adding new electrical circuit needs an electrician and removing my gas boiler is the sole realm of a Gas Safe engineer) In this video, I run through the basics of a heat loss survey, what it is and what's it for, before I do a rough one on my own house. And yes, I did point up for floor and down for ceiling. We all make mistakes 🤣🤣🤣 I need to perform a heat loss survey for three reasons: 1. The total heat loss figure will help me determine the size of heat pump I need. 2. It will tell me if my existing radiators are big enough to heat each room. 3. Once I know the radiators, I can complete my pressure drop calculations. I need to complete the pressure loss calculations to get a definitive answer on the suitability of my existing pipework. My crude heat loss was very informative, but I will need to use some more professional software and I hope that will be the topic of my next video. The MCS document I mentioned can be found here - https://mcscertified.com/wp-content/u... I'm hoping to DIY the installation, so I’ll be taking my time with analysis. I'm no expert on this subject, but I'm doing my best to learn as much as I can. I will have a professional check everything, but as this is a subject of interest, I don’t mind doing some of the legwork too. This is order I expect to do things in: Checking my existing pipework [   • Checking if my existing pipework is s...  ] Doing a simple heat loss survey for my house [this video] Doing a room-by-room heat loss survey [   • Calculating heat loss using the Heat ...  ]. Working out what radiators need to change. Checking pressure loss in my existing pipework. Checking noise levels at proposed site. Getting planning permission Picking a heat pump. MCS Umbrella scheme to get the BUS Anything else I think of. The actual installation!
