| MeMate HVAC turns your computer into a
well-trained associate, knowledgeable, productive, sharp,
and meticulous. Now you can free yourself from routine procedures
and put the pressure on your newly hired "associate".
No mistakes will be made on its side.
A simple, streamlined, dialogue-like interface with the
computer allows you to design and estimate the job from
scratch - in no time!
Heating and Cooling Load Calculations
The load is calculated by ASHRAE approved CLTD method. The
number of rooms, walls, windows is unlimited. In the beginning,
simply tell the computer few general facts about the building
and point to the exterior walls, windows, and fins. Then
mark rooms by pointing to the corners of the rooms and specify
the internal heat gain sources. Save time on area take-off
and redundant data entry. While calculating the load, MeMate
will obtain the location and characteristics of building
components and rooms right from the drawing.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Air Distribution Devices
Pick desired type of an air distribution device from a variety
of devices. Then specify design airflow and point to the
device location. The rest is done in a split of a second.
The computer selects the size of the device and puts the
symbol, arrows, size and airflow tags in the drawing.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Air Terminal Units
Choose Variable Air Volume Box, Fan-Coil Unit or Water Source
Heat Pump. Simply pick in the drawing the rooms or spaces
to be serviced by the unit and point to desired unit location.
The computer determines the required capacity of the unit
by gathering the results of room load calculations and places
unit's symbol in the drawing.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Ductwork Design
Traditionally cumbersome and time consuming, this task becomes
a breeze with MeMate HVAC. Use provided convenient tools
to develop a single-line layout of ductwork system. Start
the system from air terminal unit, riser, or identify any
point on the plan as a point of connection. Specify few
design criteria and let the computer take the heat. MeMate
HVAC sizes the ducts to fit in available space and converts
a single-line layout into precisely drawn ductwork with
fittings, flexible ducts, and accessories. The process of
calculation and conversion of the most complex ductwork
system is a matter of seconds. See your system instantly.
Take the advantage of speed and ease of ductwork design.
Get quick material take-off and the total weight of the
designed ductwork. Try other alternatives of ductwork layout.
Re-design is as simple as the original design. Develop new
ductwork system and compare the take-offs. With MeMate HVAC,
you can design the most cost-effective system before your
competitor turns the disk of his ductulator.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Piping Design
Similarly to ductwork design, your task is to develop a
layout of the piping system using MeMate tools. The computer
automatically produces the layout of return piping for direct-
return systems. Specify piping material and criteria for
pipe sizing, and the computer will calculate required water
flow, size the pipes, put fittings and dielectric isolators
where needed.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Material Take-off
Get instantly a precise Bill of Materials. Everything you
put in the drawing with MeMate HVAC will be counted, sorted,
and output conveniently. What you've designed is what you
get. In addition to complete list of ducts with total length
for each duct size, MeMate HVAC outputs a summary of rigid
ductwork. It gives you the square footage and weight of
the straight ducts and fittings with break-down by gauges.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Cost Estimate
With customizeable price database, MeMate will give you
the estimated cost of your project.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Full Metric System Support
You may choose to work in Metric System with input and output
in SI units. You may also convert your drawing from I-P
to SI and vice versa with a simple click of a button.

MeMate HVAC is a perfect choice for any job. TI or new construction,
large or small, you benefit enormously.
Simple To Use
Unlike other programs, MeMate doesn't attempt to impress
you with variety of the features and options useless in
day-by-day operation. Your interface with the computer is
limited to pointing to a location on the screen, selecting
objects, and inputting certain data (for example, maximum
air velocity.)
Easy To Learn
MeMate HVAC uses a traditional approach to HVAC design,
with computerized calculations and drafting. Basically,
there is nothing to learn. Considering the simplicity of
MeMate, your knowledge of HVAC systems is 95% of success.
Most of the users successfully operate MeMate from the very
first day.
Unique
All data pertinent to the project is stored in the drawing.
You don't have to switch between programs, transfer or re-type
the data from one to another. MeMate does it transparently.
No paper cuts from your print-outs. A comprehensive project
information is a mouse click away.
Reliable
MeMate helps you to avoid errors and omissions. For example,
when you insert the air terminal unit in the drawing, a
thermostat symbol will pop-up automatically. You can't miss
it. Just point to desired location of the thermostat and
click. Throughout the project, MeMate provides you with
invaluable information to help in making a right decision,
but always leaves to you a power of last word.
Flexible
MeMate features absolutely painless re-calculation and re-design
of any HVAC system. At any moment, you can go back to your
project and accommodate the changes effortlessly.
