The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide funding to Southface Institute to assess the performance of two Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning (HVAC) installation verification and monitoring tools via field testing at residential locations. The performance of MeasureQuick, a software application, and the Emerson Sensi Predict Automatic Fault Detection and Diagnostics (AFDD) system would be assessed for a period of two years after installation. The project would be divided into three Budget Periods (BPs), with a Go/No-Go Decision Point in between each BP.
