Prepare the report yourself in HeatAlgo, using your house dimensions and building details.

$32 · one house · one payment

Create an account, add your building data, then buy the report in the app. Prices are in US dollars and are the total you pay, tax included.

  • Whole-house and room-by-room heat loss
  • Transmission, ventilation and thermal bridges
  • Building elements and the inputs used in the calculation
  • A PDF report to discuss with your installer

One payment unlocks every module in the project, including radiant floor heating and preliminary heat pump sizing. Algo AI can suggest data from your drawings; you check and approve it. HeatAlgo is a self-service calculation tool, not a site survey or a done-for-you engineering service. A HeatAlgo report follows EN 12831-1 and EN 1264, not ACCA Manual J, and is not accepted for permits or rebates.

Which heat pump for a 160 m² (1,722 ft²) house?

THINKING

Let's calculate the heat loss first. Enter the room dimensions or upload the drawings - I will read the data from them. The room-by-room result shows the power you really need, and we check it against the offer.

HeatAlgo - a floor plan with the radiant floor heating sections and their pipe layouts

New · Algo AI

Upload a plan.AI drawsthe sections.

PDF, PNG, JPG, HEIC, DWG or DXF. You calibrate the scale, then Algo AI reads the plan and draws the sections with their pipe layouts - to EN 1264, matched to the rooms from the heat loss calculation. You check them on the drawing, untick what you do not want, apply. Everything stays editable, and the first read of a plan on an account is free.

Room by room.No shortcuts.

Transmission, ventilation and thermal bridges - calculated separately for every room, as the standard requires. A result you can put next to the installer's offer.

Got the drawings?Don't retype them.

Upload the building design or a floor plan. Algo AI reads the dimensions and the building elements and proposes the values - you check and approve them. The algorithm always does the calculation.

Your heating decision.Backed by room-by-room results.

Compare heating quotes against the demand calculated from your building data.

Without the report

  • Heating demand estimated only from floor area
  • No room-by-room result to compare with a quote
  • Assumptions about insulation and ventilation left unclear
  • No calculation report to discuss with your installer

With the $32 report

  • Whole-house and room-by-room heat loss
  • Transmission, ventilation and thermal bridges
  • Building inputs and results to EN 12831-1
  • A PDF report for your installer, with every project module unlocked

I'm stuck on the windows - what do I enter for U?

THINKING

For new windows enter U = 0.90 W/m²K - the value from the window schedule in your drawings. I will show you which page it is on.
