<DIV><SPAN class=710253623-18022009><FONT face=Arial size=2>Has anyone had any
success modeling a VRF system for a LEED project using Trace 700 or Energy
Pro? If yes, do you have a preference on which program is more
user-friendly for this application and were there any challenges, you would
care to share, encountered while modeling this type of system for
LEED.</FONT></SPAN></DIV>
