Dear AC_Hacker,

I used the calculator on the link, consider total heating degree days 1069c ~= 1924f, and U values from Jordan Building code 2002 Uroof = 1 W/m2.k, Uwall = 1.8 W/m2.k. convert to R then to imperial by divide by 0.176 result in 91K BTU/hr (8 tons).

I prefer to enhance insulation first, the problem is walls, and ceiling are almost finished. do you have any recommendation? have you ever heard about supertherm from SPI coating, is it feasible and practical?

Regards

Jibreel
