HVAC Contractors, General Contractors, Raters, and Code Officials take advantage of this easy to use ventilation strategy tool!

This tool simplifies the ASHRAE 62.2 2010 and 2013 standard for spot and whole house ventilation systems. The tool performs calculations for mechanical ventilation, infiltration credits, intermittent ventilation, and duct sizing which makes compliance with 62.2 a snap. Plus, once you have calculated your required ventilation flows, the tool will recommend products specific to your system ranked on CFM per watt usage.

When you’re done, you can email project specific reports that contain system specifications and product information directly from the app. The tool provides design assistance for the best home performance. Use it in the field or as a diagnostic or training tool. Bring consistency and value to your work by developing ventilation strategies with confidence!

Co-developed as a support tool for professional ventilation installers by the experts at Panasonic Ventilation and Advanced Energy!
