Best Answer

For a simple residential application 20 to 25 btu/sq ft should be fine. so find the area of the space to be conditioned and multiply by 22.5 and round up or down considering the oreintation of your house. If you have a lot of shade go lower and if you have full sun and a lot of glass go to the high side.
