Degree days for better energy efficiency
The Basics of Degree Days Heating Degree Days (HDD) and Cooling Degree Days (CDD) are measures used to estimate the energy needed to heat or cool a building. They are calculated using two main parameters:
Internal Temperature: The desired temperature that a device (such as a boiler or air conditioner) aims to maintain within a building. Reference Temperature: The threshold temperature at which the device begins to operate, either to heat or cool the indoor space.
