HVAC design for Weaverville

The California Energy Commission's design-day data for Weaverville gives the outdoor conditions a Manual J load calculation uses: a summer design temperature of 93°F and a winter design temperature of 10°F.

Summer design (1%)93°F dry bulb / 65°F wet bulb
Winter design (median of extremes)10°F
Daily temperature range46°F
Elevation2,050 ft

Heating governs here. Choose a cold-climate heat pump that keeps its rated capacity near 10°F, and protect water lines and the water heater from freezing.

Electrical service from Trinity Public Utilities District

If the load calculation shows you need a service upgrade, a second meter or a relocated service, open that request with Trinity Public Utilities District early; utility lead times are often longer than plan check.

Plumbing and sewer

The plumbing plan shows the route, slope and cleanouts of the connection to the existing sewer lateral or septic system.

Pricing is flat statewide: ADU plans from $995, full ADU MEP package from $2,295, Title 24 add-on $240. See what's in a complete ADU MEP set.
