Is the total heat loss for basement walls typically the product of below-grade and above-grade walls' heat losses?

True
False

The correct answer is: False

In residential HVAC systems, the total heat loss for basement walls is not typically the product of below-grade and above-grade walls' heat losses. The heat loss through basement walls is influenced by factors such as insulation, wall thickness, and outdoor temperatures. These factors impact the heat loss independently for below-grade and above-grade walls, making it more complex than a simple product relationship between the two. Therefore, option B is correct in stating that the total heat loss for basement walls is not a straightforward product of the heat losses from below-grade and above-grade walls.
