A special feature of SelectPlus allows users to input "hours of operation," for accurate savings analysis.

Design engineers will also enjoy SelectPlus’ ability to generate dimensional drawings and help select HPT systems for direct-expansion and chilled-water systems.

“The surge in sales that we have seen since we released the SelectPlus software has exceeded even our ambitious expectations,” said HPT’s Maz Awad. “The remarkable capabilities of SelectPlus has been the catalyst, and we are on a pace to deliver more HPT systems this year than any year in our Company’s history.”
