Data Entry Area
The Data Entry Area is where you will be entering the required data for each room. As you do this, the
heat loss calculations will be continuously updated, and the lower portion of the screen will show the
baseboard requirements for each room for Fine/Line 15, Fine/Line 30, Multi/Pak 80, Base/Line 70,
Base/Line 2000, and Rhino-Cast. You can also determine radiant tubing requirements. This is discussed
in Selecting Radiant Tubing.
Note: Unlike other programs you may have used, this program does not require you to save your work.
All entries are automatically saved by the system. Should you make an error, you can always edit it or
delete it. These procedures are described in more detail later in the manual.
