Can you suggest a load program that is ACCA Manual J based?
A plus would be output that is easily used for Energy Star certification or LEED for Homes certification.
Another plus would be a program for which the directions can be easily changed (e.g. for apartments with the same floor plan that face different directions).
 
elite rhvac, but i don't know whether leed ability is added, you can check latest update at their web.
 
I think ACCA have their own software.
 
I know this will start another discussion..... but Trane Trace could be used and also can rotate the building for LEED (not sure why you would want to rotate the building if it wasn't for LEED.. it isn't like actually rotating the building is an option. .)


But you ask about load program, but mention LEED, which indicates energy simulation? which one do you need? Trace can do both.
