November 1, 2007: 2007 Comfortech Award
Wrightsoft Awarded Comfortech Product Showcase Award
New Right-Suite Universal Enables Contractors to Complete Residential and Commercial Loads, Designs and Proposals in One Program
LEXINGTON, MA, November 1, 2007 – Wrightsoft Right-SuiteTM Universal has again been recognized by another HVAC industry group, earning the HVAC Comfortech 2007 Product Showcase Award in the Software category. The Product Showcase Awards honor products that bring innovative technology to contractors, dealers, and distributors. Judges consider ease of use, applications, and many other aspects of the products before making their decisions.
“Right-Suite Universal represents the culmination of 20 years of research, development and technological innovation. By creating a program that allows users to manage residential and commercial projects at the same time, and quickly and easily switch between calculation methods, we are enabling a level of efficiency that will save our customers enormous amounts time and money,” said Chris Edgren, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Wrightsoft.
Wrightsoft Right-Suite Universal (RSU) combines residential and commercial HVAC load, design, and sales capabilities in one product for the first time and gives customers the power to use a single program for all of their replacement and new construction projects. By combining ACCA, ASHRAE, and HRAI technologies with automated bill of materials, proposals, and compliance tools into a single design and sales product, contractors can now apply the most appropriate load, duct, radiant and geothermal design methods in real-time, with greater efficiency and cost savings, resulting in professional reports, proposals, and estimates.
Right-Suite Universal also uses and introduces to the industry Wrightsoft Layered Materials TechnologyTM (LMT), which will allow designers to make their own custom material values by layering standard material values, therefore enabling easy translation into any of the ACCA, ASHRAE, or HRAI calculation methods instantaneously. The custom materials can be stored in templates and libraries, reducing set up and calculation time.
“The continued recognition from the industry validates our efforts,” concluded Edgren. “Not only does this confirm that Right-Suite Universal is a true industry breakthrough that will significantly change the face of HVAC software, but it also provides us with a platform to launch other industry-changing products.”
The HVAC Comfortech 2007 Product Showcase Award is the third award for Wrightsoft Right-Suite Universal including the 2007 Dealer Design Silver Award, and the AHR 2007 Software Innovation Award.
