<font color="#336666"><font face="verdana,sans-serif">CA allows for either eQuest or Energy Pro- both are based on the DOE simulation engine, eQuest uses DOE2, and Energy Pro uses DOE2.1e.. Each have their strengths and weaknesses, and neither are some simple compliance only check like you seem to be asking for. This is an eQuest forum, but Energy Pro comes up now and then. Energy Pro does not really use geometry and is in my opinion the simpler of the two. </font></font><div>

<div><br></div><div>I need to do a basic energy compliance check for replacing HVAC RTUs that are "like for like". I cannot use COMcheck to do this, although it would be much easier, because COMcheck does not comply with certain state energy codes (such as California, which I need to do compliance checks for). If anyone could please tell me how to use eQuest to do this simple check or provide a different free simple program to do so that would be so very appreciated. </div>
