Hello,
I'm looking for a small application or an Excel file to calculate my heating needs based on my insulation and the volume of my house.
Thank you.

Hello,
the heating needs of the building depend not only on the volume and insulation but also on a large number of other parameters, such as the surface areas of the walls and the region, among many others.
What you are looking for exists but is very imprecise; more serious authors always warn that the tool cannot replace a thermal study or be used to size an installation, but in general, no one mentions the margin of error, probably because it is too significant or unknown.
Professionals use this type of tool to estimate a budget for preliminary projects within ±30 or 40%. If you are interested in knowing, look at ideesmaison or acova for example.
However, there are more serious thermal study services, but they are not completely free or are addressed manually with a delay.
