HVAC Load Plus vs HVAC Toolkit Lite

The HVAC Load+ iPhone app allows you to perform detailed heating and cooling block loads for small commercial and residential buildings out in the field by taking advantage of the simplicity and power of the iPhone. It performs heating and cooling block load calculations based upon industry standard calculation methods. The following is just a small sample of the features included in this app: 1. Includes a 1000+ world-wide city weather database 2. Includes data for 100s of construction types for walls, roofs, floors, doors, windows, skylights, ceilings, and more 3. Allows you to create and store an unlimited number of projects. You can also copy existing projects to new projects for easy reuse of data 4. Allows you to specify an unlimited # of opaque types (ie – doors, walls, roofs, floors, ceilings), window types, and skylight types for each building 5. 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 6. Opaque inputs include opaque type, opaque construction number, dimensions, and opening areas 7. Window inputs include window type, internal and external shading type, overhang dimensions, window area, and more.. 8. Skylight inputs include skylight type, dimensions, orientation, and more.. 9. Additional input types include # of people, # of bedrooms, ventilation airflow, and more.. 10. 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 11. Includes ability to input your company information to display on the emailed report 12. Includes ability to display units in either English (IP) or Metric (SI). 13. Equipment location services It also includes 2 bonus modules: 1. The "HVAC Equipment Locator" has the same functionality as our stand-alone Locator app. It allows you to input information about all of your HVAC equipment, upload it to a remote web server (at www.carmelsoft.com/EL), and SAFELY share information about it with other technicians within your company. The equipment's GPS coordinates become its globally unique identifier, allowing you to input and retrieve information about it just by standing next to it. 2. The “HVAC Quick Load” module allows you to quickly perform rule-of-thumb heating and cooling load calcs based upon just inputting the building type, square area, and # of people. Please see the description located under the stand-alone "HVAC Quick Load" app for more details about it. The benefits of using this app are: 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 This app was designed by Carmel Software Corporation, a 20-year old software design firm specializing in engineering analysis software applications geared toward engineers, architects, technicians, and home owners. In fact, our software powers the analysis capabilities of major Autodesk software tools such as Revit (The makers of AutoCAD). We will continue to update this app based upon user feedback.

The HVAC ToolKit Lite is an easy-to-use app that has been created to assist HVAC engineers in checking their designs and making quick calculations and estimations. The app includes helpful calculation tools for calculating friction losses in ducting, pipe sizing, parking ventilation, staircase pressurization, and estimating heat loads, pump head, fan ESP, among others, where the user is able to enter the required inputs and is given the calculated output. Each tool also includes instructions and abbreviated formulas that have been used to calculate the results. The app can be set to metric or imperial units and/or to the English or Arabic language. Users are expected to have some knowledge and understanding of HVAC engineering in order to use the tools properly. Users are also expected to check that the results are within an acceptable range for their respective projects. If you come across any inconsistencies while using the app or have any recommendations for additional inclusions, please contact us.
