Pros and cons of HVAC - Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning app for iPhone and iPad

HVAC - Heating, Ventilation and Air Conditioning app good for

There seems to be an app for everything stupid, and these guys actually put together some incredibly useful resources with this one. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED, though because I run a building diagnostics firm I upgraded to the Pro version. Cant beat 99 cents though. Buy it.

This all does not calculate anything it is just a reference guide. Its a very good reference and rule of thumb guide with lots of useful equations. The only thing I would add is where the equations and data come from. It looks ASHRAE based but not sure if it is

Some bad moments

Very useless app. Nothing but formulas that you can easily get from a text book. Not even worth 2 bucks.

So I bought this app thinking the contents may be useful in the field. What I got was alot of formulas with no reference on how to use them or what they mean. As I see it, if you know how to read the info in this app then you shouldnt need to use it. Worthless n should be free. Not $1.99
