System Design
As a single-source provider, Temp Right Service, Inc. is capable of meeting your heating, ventilation, air conditioning, plumbing, and refrigeration design needs. We have a team of design professionals that can create a system that is right for you. There are several different types of systems (geothermal, gas, electric, forced air, radiant heat), accessories (humidifier, filters, air purifiers, zone controls, thermostats), and other equipment (generators, garage heaters, fireplaces, tankless water heaters) that need to be considered when designing a system that is perfect fit for you.
Temp Right provides:
- Conceptual designs with budgets
- Energy modeling to compare alternate systems
- Complete system selection
- Mechanical plans to coordinate register locations relative to furniture
- Mechanical plans to coordinate soffit locations
Integrated Design-Build
Design-Build is an intelligent, efficient, and cost-effective approach to project delivery. Involving Temp Right Service at the home design level, the overall cost of the system is minimized, ducting is located in unobtrusive locations, esthetics of the system is optimized, and the performance of the system is maximized.
“Our geothermal system is saving us money.”
“Using intelligent engineering technology, Temp Right designed a geothermal system specifically for our home. You can go anywhere in our home and experience a temperature variance of less than 1°. Per square foot, our utility bills are significantly less than anyone we know."
To guarantee that the system design is correct for you, Temp Right Service needs to meet with you and discuss the options available to you and more importantly, what your needs and desires are.
Temp Right Service offers a lifetime guarantee on our system design. The steps in our design include:
Load Calculation — we use a computer program to determine the amount of heat lost during the heating season, and the amount of heat gained during the cooling season of your home so that we can properly select equipment and size ductwork and piping. The inputs for the load calculation include cardinal direction, area of walls, windows, doors, floors, roof, and the associated thermal resistance of these assemblies.
System and Equipment Selection — with your input regarding type of system, we select the equipment. The size of the equipment is determined using the load calculation. Considerations for type of system include efficiency, utility rates, comfort level, and budget.
System Design — at this point we are designing the distribution system, which can include ducting and piping. A superior product is created if we are able to work with your architect or home designer. We can minimize impacts on esthetics and maximize system performance.
Accessory Selection — Your input regarding assessor selection is crucial. Every home in Montana should have a humidifier. However, the type of humidifier that should be selected is specific to the needs and desires of the homeowner. The selection of all other accessories is also specific to each homeowner.
Other Equipment — selecting fireplaces, water heaters, water treatment, generators, and garage heaters is a decision that requires homeowner input.
Final System Design and Review — at this point in the process, we have created an AutoCAD drawing of the mechanical system. It is beneficial to everyone involved that the system design is reviewed by the homeowner and general contractor so that everyone is aware and in agreement of the location of all aspects of the system. This includes grille and register locations, thermostat locations, flue and combustion air terminations, dryer vent termination, bath exhaust fan terminations, and all other visible component of the system.
It is such a disservice to a homeowner to not have this common understanding at the onset of the installation of a mechanical system. A homeowner should not be surprised to see a visible part of a heating and cooling system after it is installed. This creates discontent and is costly to modify once the system is installed.
Our goal is to install a system that exceeds every homeowner’s expectation and provide a level of service that establishes a customer for life.
