What are the consequences of oversizing a heating system due to incorrect heating load calculations?

Oversizing a heating system can lead to several negative consequences, including increased energy consumption, higher capital costs, and reduced system efficiency. An oversized heating system can also lead to short cycling, which can reduce the system’s lifespan and increase maintenance costs. Furthermore, an oversized system may not provide the desired indoor comfort, as it may cause overheating or uneven heating. Therefore, it’s essential to perform accurate heating load calculations to ensure that the heating system is sized correctly and operates efficiently.
