HEAT LOAD PRO lets you quickly and accurately find the design heat load of a building on a room-by-room basis. A new graphical interface allows you to select from several types of construction and hundreds of material choices. Room volumes and surface areas are quickly determined using built in specialty calculators. Once the building heating load is determined HEAT LOAD PRO goes on to estimate the seasonal heating cost using your locally available fuel options and their associated cost and efficiencies. All this in a package that costs a fraction of what other heat load estimating programs sell for. More Information

Billed as "a practical guide for the nonengineer installer," this book tackles the subject of radiant heating from the, "you already know everything you need to know" approach. Definitely not for the engineer, this book puts the design and installation of radiant heating in everyday language for the average contractor and installer.

Think about switches is like thinking about fishing (we have poles, we have throws...). Also, why the ?water analogy? doesn?t work if you?re a plumber, how a thermostat is just a switch, how a relay is a translator, why a strip of lights isn?t wired in series or how to use a meter. Author, Carol Fey, is a degreed technical trainer who has worked in the controls industry for the last 20 years and has been honored as National Technical Trainer of the Year by the American Society for Training and Development. From the Practical-Is-Good (P.I.G.) Technical Training Series.
