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 and power of the iPhone.

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 and engineers with over 50 years combined software and engineering design experience. In fact, our software powers the analysis capabilities of major Autodesk (The makers of AutoCAD) software tools such as Autodesk Revit.

The following is just a small sample of the features included in this app:

1. Calculations based upon abridged ACCA Manual J8 calculations (This is not an ACCA-approved app. For our ACCA-approved iPad app, search for the HVAC ResLoad-J app on the app store)

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 create an unlimited number of rooms and view individual loads and airflows for those rooms

6. Allows you to specify an unlimited # of opaque types (ie – doors, walls, roofs, floors, ceilings), window types, and skylight types for each building

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. Opaque inputs include opaque type, opaque 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

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 English (IP) or Metric (SI) units

15. This is the same technology that powers the Trane MAP iPad app that they offer to their elite dealer network

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

HVAC Residential Load Calcs Pros

✓ Go to load Calc app.Used this app many times to perform load calculations with success..Battson34Version: 5.5

✓ Great value and reliable resultsI've been in the HVAC industry for 35 years, but until last year had not done anything serious in residential HVAC. Most of my work has been in large buildings and industrial processes. So I never had occasion to invest in a Manual J load calculation program. But this winter, when our own furnace started having major problems, I thought I'd better do a load calc to be a more intelligent consumer. I used this program and found it a real delight. It's as simple to use as one could ever expect with a Manual-J-compliant load calc, and the ability to tour the house with a laser distance measuring device and enter the data into the iPhone directly was actually quite a bit of fun. To cross-check the results, I was able to download our actual furnace run-time for an 8-hour period when the outdoor temperature averaged 4°F below our local 99.6% design value, including a 15 MPH wind. (Our Ecobee web-connected, datalogging t/rh-stat is another real delight) The actual average furnace output for that 8-hour period was within 5% of my calculated load. Pretty amazing. Also, my calculated load was within 10% of the load calculated by my HVAC contractor who used the far more complex and expensive Wright-J software on the PC. So I'm feeling pretty good about the results from this economical and easy-to-use program. Not that it's perfect. It has all the awkwardness and poor assumptions of Manual J itself. For example, it's exceedingly difficult to find the place where you enter the air infiltration rate for the home. And when you get there, the interface makes it quite difficult to figure out the correct way to enter the value. Really, in this day and age, when blower door tests allow very accurate measurements of the all-important air infiltration number, this needs to be much, much easier to find and there needs to be a simple way to enter a "blower door airflow at 50 PA" directly into a well-labeled field. Also, Manual J assumes much lower humidity loads from infiltration that what actually occurs (It assumes less than 25% of the actual load in our particular location... it's a problem in Manual J itself, and this program has no choice other than to follow that bad assumption because it's intended to be "Manual j-compliant." ) On the other hand, the support from the developer was excellent and very responsive. He got me on the right track within an hour of my confusion about where to input the air infiltration rate. I don't usually expect that level of support in a $24 dollar program. Another issue on the negative side is the report output options. While the screen reports are excellent and very clear, the downloadable HTML report is nearly unreadable for all of the forrest of extra lines, and it won't print at any legible size on a single page, or even on logical tiled pages. Further, the spreadsheet version is even worse... a huge, wide landscape format which even cannot be read on the screen until you've completely reformatted all the cell widths, and even then, it's not set up to print on paper in any logical way. So the program as it currently stands is essentially useless for communicating the loads to anybody else in any form other than looking at the results on the screen, or hand-copying the results from the screen reports into an email or other spreadsheet. So the non-screen reports need *a lot* of work. That said, the program still gets five stars from me because after all... it provided very reliable results and it was very easy to enter the detailed room-by-room data. I suspect this is going to be very popular with HVAC contractors who need to really do load calcs rather than just guesstimating loads..Lew HarrimanVersion: 1.6
