TRACE® 3D Plus Load Design
TRACE® 3D Plus Load Design is the next evolution of the globally used and trusted TRACE® 700 Load Design software. This 3D design platform makes accurately sizing your HVAC systems faster and easier at any desired level of fidelity. We've taken our 50 years of HVAC systems design and software simulation knowledge and combined it with the U.S. Department of Energy's state-of-the-art EnergyPlus® simulation engine. The result is a platform that makes right sizing HVAC systems intuitive and visually dynamic with an easy to understand workflow that's less error prone. Try the new TRACE 3D Plus platform today and get accurate sizing results in a fraction of the time.
In the Version 6.10.289 you’ll find new efficiencies through added functionality, enhanced editing options and more.
Visit the Download section below to begin the V6.10.289 update, including:
Improved system and equipment data for Load Design calculations
Enhanced capabilities for DOAS, serve multiple system level air handling units
Beta feature added for modeling Air to Water Heat Pumps
Opaque surfaces added to U-value overrides
Walls added to the Spreadsheet View
Limited Time Offer - FREE 30-Day Trial from LightStanza

Trace 3D Plus Load Design Features
Generate Design Models Quickly with Full Building Templates
Enjoy the same intuitive ease and intelligent defaults that made TRACE 700 so popular while the schematically configurable system/plant layout and control provides a deeper level of customization to match real world design.
Save even more time on every project with the extended library and template architecture to include dozens of full building templates that make getting quick and highly accurate results for most commercial building types 30 to 40% faster than its predecessor.
Optimize Design Time with Expanded Asset Library
The thousands of built-in libraries and templates were created by researching hundreds of industry standards, studies completed by national labs or other trusted industry resources. The 3D building elements are infused throughout the interface with the full breadth of the libraries and templates for an unparalleled design experience that can be visually verified.
And the best part is that all load design models are completely scalable and seamless should the need arise for an upgrade to the full energy or economic analysis platform!
Push your Designs Beyond the Industry Standard
TRACE 3D Plus does more than just spit out ASHRAE Heat Balance toolbox load calculations. TRACE integrates Trane’s vast industry experience and considers worst case design of every component in the building model to give the modeler the ultimate control of all design considerations or factors of safety.
Whether modeling today’s sophisticated radiant designs, complex VRF configurations, or high performance VAV systems, TRACE 3D Plus will help guide the designer through the process.
This free getting started video can help with the ramp-up for new users of TRACE 3D Plus interested in understanding building loads and properly sizing HVAC components.

Lean on World Class Support Teams
TRACE 3D Plus is sold as a Software as a Service (SaaS) package with annual license renewals. The world-class support that you have come to rely on is now more robust and offers even more ways to interact, including a searchable online knowledge database and in-depth online training. As always, it is backed by a team of support engineers to help you migrate to this new software program.
I've worked with C.D.S. for decades now. They are consistently knowledgeable and have always provided great support. Keep up the good work guys! It affects my perception of Trane as a complete company.
Honestly, the most amazing customer support ever! Everyone should be studying how CDS gets things done. It truly is incredible and much appreciated.
Really great people and always super helpful. I've been using this software package since 2003 and have always received excellent support and in short order.
My agent was very helpful and resolved my problem quickly. I've been waiting on my in-house tech support for over a week. Thank you for making it so easy and getting me back to work!
