Why Goodale HVAC Fieldbook exists
Goodale HVAC Fieldbook connects 29 field calculations with controlled commissioning projects, phased readings, evidence-based readiness, signed closeout, and professional reports.
A field number becomes valuable only when someone can explain where it came from, which system and test point it describes, what design value and tolerance apply, which instrument was used, and what happened next. Goodale HVAC Fieldbook is designed around that complete evidence trail instead of treating a calculator result as the end of the work.
It is designed for HVAC technicians, TAB specialists, engineers, commissioning providers, and field teams that need measurements, tolerances, deficiencies, instruments, and approvals to stay together.
TAB and balancing depth
Run duct traverses, pitot airflow, outlet percent balance, total external static, ACH, K-factor flow, outside-air percentage, and mixed-air checks.
This capability supports the larger Goodale HVAC Fieldbook promise: measure. balance. document. It is most useful when it stays connected to the rest of the workflow instead of becoming an isolated screen or score.
Hydronic engineering
Solve tons, GPM, BTU/hr, and delta T, then check water static pressure, pump head, pipe velocity, pipe volume, valve Cv flow, and pump power.
This capability supports the larger Goodale HVAC Fieldbook promise: measure. balance. document. It is most useful when it stays connected to the rest of the workflow instead of becoming an isolated screen or score.
Psychrometrics and diagnostics
Solve air states, cooling-coil performance, fan and VFD predictions, electrical load, refrigeration temperature differences, efficiency, gas input, and engineering conversions.
This capability supports the larger Goodale HVAC Fieldbook promise: measure. balance. document. It is most useful when it stays connected to the rest of the workflow instead of becoming an isolated screen or score.
Controlled commissioning projects
Organize projects by customer, site, area, system, equipment, and test point. Capture initial, adjusted, and final readings with clear units, tolerances, timestamps, and technician context.
This capability supports the larger Goodale HVAC Fieldbook promise: measure. balance. document. It is most useful when it stays connected to the rest of the workflow instead of becoming an isolated screen or score.
Deficiencies and closeout
Track corrective actions, verification notes, instrument calibration, evidence-driven readiness, preparer and reviewer details, customer approval, and a local signature.

Professional proof
Export a print-ready PDF closeout package or analysis-ready CSV with systems, test points, design-versus-actual results, deficiencies, instruments, notes, approvals, and linked calculations.
