Our expertise is leading the way in the national adoption of this standard.

RESNET Accreditation – TREAT is  RESNET Accredited as an Existing Homes Tax Credit Compliance Tool.

Several of TREAT’s internal calculations have been improved and validated against the RESNET accreditation suite, which includes the following tests:

1. HERS BESTEST Tier 1 Tests
2. RESNET DHW Tests
3. RESNET HVAC Tests
4. RESNET DSE (Distribution System Effectiveness) Tests
5. RESNET Heating and Cooling TestsL125A

Expanded Surface Library  – Surfaces representing 35 wall and 19 roof constructions commonly found in existing commercial buildings, plus commonly requested foundation and floor surfaces including dirt and stone.

This feature includes our newest additions (Wall – Commercial and Roof – Commercial) to the TREAT surfaces library. The descriptions and thermal performance of these surfaces were taken from the ASHRAE Handbook of Fundamentals, (2009), Chapters 18 and 26.

Billing Analysis Feature – Fixed Reference Temperature

This feature allows a fixed reference temperature of 65F to drive TREAT’s built-in utility bill disaggregation analysis. This option supports emerging calibration standards such as ANSI/BPI-2400.

NEW Billing Analysis Feature – Spreadsheet Template for importing Billing Data

Updated for Windows 8 compatibility! This template helps users import electricity or fuel energy data into their TREAT model. The easy-to-use spreadsheet template significantly improves the handling of delivered fuels by automatically generating synthetic representative utility bills. The template creates the required .csv file for direct import into TREAT.

Reporting Feature – Create Microsoft Word Reports.

This feature adds Microsoft Word to the list of file formats that TREAT generates. (Adobe PDF, MS Excel, TIFF, XML, and now Microsoft Word.) The Microsoft Word reports contain embedded image and text objects that are fully editable.

Project Feature  – Import data from Compass

For TREAT users who are also using Compass, TREAT now supports import of metered energy data from Compass.  In addition to all utility bill information, the file import includes customer and fuel rate information.

Product Registration Features – Simplified TREAT registration process

The process of registering TREAT has been re-engineered and significantly simplified. An updated registration server allows users—if online—to easily activate, deactivate or register TREAT on their machine. This simplifies moving a registered copy between computers.
