Windows XP or Vista<br />

1.2.24.8. Programming Language<br />

Visual Basic<br />

1.2.24.9. Strengths<br />

Easy, intuitive user interface; Versatile tool ranging from code compliance for Florida energy code<br />

and ASHRAE Standard 90.1 to whole buil<strong>di</strong>ng simulation for various performance benchmarks like LEED<br />

and ASHRAE Standard 90.1 Appen<strong>di</strong>x G; Automatic generation of ASHRAE reference buil<strong>di</strong>ng from<br />

proposed buil<strong>di</strong>ng input; Automatic rotation of reference buil<strong>di</strong>ng in all 4 orientations when running LEED<br />

or ASHRAE Standard 90.1 Appen<strong>di</strong>x G; Automatic generation and submission of PDF report to the USGBC<br />

Web site that is required to claim Energy & Atmosphere (EA) Cre<strong>di</strong>t 1 points for LEED certification;<br />
