About This Product

Carrier's Hourly Analysis Program (HAP) is two tools in one: versatile HVAC system design capabilities and powerful energy analysis for commercial buildings. Uses the ASHRAE Heat Balance method to calculate space and zone loads 24 hours a day across all 12 months, with design data flowing directly into energy modeling to streamline the entire workflow.

    “This article provides a comparative analysis of Carrier HAP and Trane TRACE, highlighting their strengths, weaknesses, and key differences.”

  • reddit

    “While I agree HAP is still very iffy, TRACE 3D has all the same issues and much more. I think we are early in this generation of 3d modeling for load calcs so none of the programs are there yet, but IMO HAP6.2 is way ahead of Trace.”
