HOUSTRAD demonstrates house envelope Energy Code compliance through the Trade-off Path (equivalent to the Prescriptive Path), where the windows or walls of the house do not follow the prescriptive requirements, but the overall annual energy use is equal to or better than the reference house. The house verification program requests basic information on the house; performs envelope trade-offs and provides user-friendly output.
