Open the app, start a job, and let it guide you from intake to the right system choice. Begin by entering the address; climate data and design conditions load automatically. Walk room by room to capture dimensions, insulation levels, window specs, infiltration, and duct details. As you enter data, the Load Calculator updates sensible/latent totals and flags problem areas like oversized glazing or leaky return paths. Compare equipment capacities against calculated demand, test alternate configurations (heat pump vs. furnace + AC), and preview comfort impacts before you commit. When you’re satisfied, lock in the selection and generate a clear system summary the homeowner can understand.

Use the Auditor module on site to turn findings into an action plan. Snap photos, log blower-door results, note combustion safety, and record attic, crawlspace, and duct observations. Add improvement measures from a built-in catalog—air sealing, duct sealing, insulation upgrades, ventilation changes, or equipment swaps—and assign costs, rebates, and expected savings. The software prioritizes measures by ROI and estimated payback so you can propose a step-by-step path or a comprehensive package. Convert those measures into a polished proposal instantly: include before/after projections, comfort benefits, and financing options to speed decisions and close deals the same day.

Quoting is fast and transparent. Build good/better/best options with itemized line items, labor, permits, and accessories. Auto-apply incentives and warranty terms, then push a clean, branded estimate for e-signature from a tablet or laptop. Schedule the install as soon as it’s approved and export job details to your CRM or accounting tool to avoid retyping. Need documentation? Produce code-ready load reports, duct summaries, and equipment submittals in minutes. Share homeowner-friendly visuals that explain why the selected capacity matches their home’s needs, reducing callbacks and second-guessing.

After the install, connect to energy data to verify results and support ongoing service. Track consumption and demand trends, set alerts for abnormal usage, and compare pre/post upgrade performance to show delivered savings. Use the readings to fine-tune setpoints, airflow, and staging, or to flag when a maintenance visit is due. For builders and remodelers, clone templates for common floor plans, standardize insulation and window packages, and turn around compliant loads quickly for entire subdivisions. With Energy Design Systems, each project follows a consistent workflow—from assessment to sizing, from proposal to install, and from commissioning to performance monitoring—so teams move faster, sell with confidence, and deliver measurable comfort and efficiency.
