HVAC design for San Juan Bautista

The HVAC is sized from a room-by-room Manual J using the outdoor design conditions for the address, in Climate Zone 4's coastal, marine-influenced climate. Right-size the heat pump from a real Manual J instead of a tonnage guess.

Electrical service from Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E)

If the load calculation shows you need a service upgrade, a second meter or a relocated service, Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) handles that through its Your Projects portal, separately from the building permit.
