Trane Air Conditioning Economics (TRACE®) was conceived in 1971 and released in 1973. Initially, users sent building and system data in booklets through the mail, which Trane processed into punch cards and returned to users. Over time, TRACE has evolved dramatically to increase functionality and ease of use. See how TRACE has grown: https://ow.ly/9bhL50U3FmN
Jay Althof and Dean Henderson! The pioneers of (TRACE®) when I first started at Trane. My first job was supporting the software and training on the software which was loaded on computers with a floppy disc and Jay hired me!
As usual, Trane was way ahead of the curve. Still is, and I’m saying that as a competitor
Wow History at Trane!
Jay and Dean you look just great!!!! Great memories!!
Fascinating to see how far TRACE® has come since its early days! From mail-in booklets and punch cards to today’s advanced, user-friendly tools, Trane has consistently pushed the boundaries of innovation in HVAC system analysis.
