SEE WHY OVER 350,000 ENGINEERS, TECHNICIANS, AND ARCHITECTS HAVE LICENSED OUR SOFTWARE FOR THEIR HVAC ENGINEERING NEEDS: (For full online help and a training video, click http://bit.ly/1aifR6n For a schedule of our live training webinars, click http://bit.ly/1IHn7nA) Bonus: This app now includes our popular HVAC Equipment Locator app built right in! Click here for details about that app: http://bit.ly/1a2RskH This app allows you to perform detailed block and room-by-room heating and cooling loads for residential buildings out in the field, by taking advantage of the simplicity, power, and screen-size of the iPad. This app was designed by Carmel Software Corporation, a 25-year old software design firm specializing in engineering analysis software applications. We are not just 1 person designing mobile apps out of a bedroom. We are a team of software developers with over 50 years combined software and engineering design experience. In fact, our software powers the analysis capabilities of major Autodesk software tools such as Revit (The makers of AutoCAD). Also, we provide full support including phone, email, and periodic live webinars. The following is just a small sample of the features included in this app: 1. Calculations based upon ACCA Manual J8 Abridged calculations 2. Includes a 1000+ world-wide city weather database 3. Includes data for 100s of construction types for walls, roofs, floors, doors, windows, skylights, ceilings, and more 4. Allows you to create and store an unlimited number of projects. 5. Allows you to specify an unlimited # of envelope types (ie – doors, walls, roofs, floors, ceilings), window types, and skylight types for each building 6. Allows you to model individual rooms so you can view room loads and airflows 7. Allows you to instantly view total heating and cooling load results as you update input data 8. Allows you to view comprehensive cooling and heating load breakdown reports including breakdown by opaque load, window load, skylight load, infiltration load, ventilation load and internal load contributions 9. Envelope inputs include envelope type, envelope construction number, dimensions, and opening areas 10. Window inputs include window type, internal and external shading type, overhang dimensions, window area, and more.. 11. Additional input types include # of people, # of bedrooms, ventilation airflow, and more.. 12. Includes ability to display a wide variety of on-screen reports including checksum reports (ie – BTUh/SqFt, SqFt/Ton, etc.), complete heating and cooling load breakdown reports, and even graphically-pleasing pie charts showing cooling and heating load breakdowns. You can also email these reports as PDFs to yourself or clients. 13. Includes the ability to display a comprehensive HTML report that you can email to yourself or others, and it also includes a spreadsheet attachment that you can open in Excel to further massage data on your desktop 14. Includes ability to input your company information to display on the emailed report 15. Includes ability to display units in either English (IP) or Metric (SI). 16. Includes ability to perform room-by-room load calcs 17. This is the same technology that powers the Trane MAP iPad app that they offer to their elite dealer network. 18. Now includes the HVAC Equipment Locator app built right in. The benefits of using this app are numerous including: 1. Great for use out in the field. Quickly size heating and cooling equipment, show the client, then email the results back to your office for further analysis. 2. Show off your advanced on-screen reports to clients convincing them you are using cutting-edge technology 3. Save time by inputting information in the field and then returning to your office to perform more in-depth analysis Please email us at [email protected] for any comments and suggestions for improvements.
Program will not load screens
I get nothing but the demo screen. No way to enter new loads.
Waste
Was not worth the 50 bucks. Don't waste your money!!!!
Pretty decent app
Fairly simple to use especially on site. I've had numerous load programs and this does work properly. My only reason for three stars is there is no specific construction data for foam insulation. Most popular load programs have specifics for this. I have called and talked to these guys and they say just choose the R value. Well that's what the program is supposed to do after you choose thickness and poundage of the foam being used as well as closed cell or open cell. I certainly wouldn't pay more than 50 bucks for this program. Just saying.
Overpriced
This app puts a lot of emphasis on some less-than-essential data and graphs that, while visually appealing, provide mostly irrelevant information. The interface is attractive, but data entry is TEDIOUS and yields fewer results than you'd expect from a $35 app ($50 if you bought it when I did) into which you've just spent 25 minutes scrolling, tapping, sliding, and typing. If you're only interest is impressing customers with your tech toys, go for it.
Good app
The app itself works very well, main problem that I have had is that local permitting will not except heat loads from this program because it doesn't say on the reports that it was designed using the manual J 7 or 8 edition. It is only a one or two line and I would even write it out for you "This HVAC load calculation has been performed using sound engineering principles as prescribed by Manual J seventh and eighth abridged editions and ASHRAE fundamental. Provided by Camel Software Corporation." Please have on all reports that will make life easy for all of us.
Waste of time and money
DONT BUY! Very difficult to navigate and loads are not accurate.
Very useful and easy to use
I downloaded this app when my Trane rep. recommended it. I also attended one of the weekly training webinars, and started using it out in the field soon after. It really has proven to be a timesaver for doing residential equipment sizing, and it really impressed my customers when I was able to do the loads in front of them and then email them a quick report. I love that is is so easy to use and I can email an Excel spreadsheet with all the results back to the office. I hear that the app is also used to power the load calc capabilities of the latest Trane MAP application that is available to their resellers. Great work!!
