    LoL,

    Wouldn't it be just as easy to just get one of us to do the assignment for you?

    If you look around this site you will find that there are plenty of free heat load/loss programs and apps around, if you look a bit closer you will find that some of them can even be used to design systems and give you the efficiency of it...

    Hello Belle

    You are a little out on your efficiency calculation.

    1kW in - 3kW out = 300%
