TftT is the official training agency for Elite Software™, creator of HVAC programs such as RHVAC, based on ACCA's Manual J for calculating residential and light commerical HVAC loads. Our courses are designed to provide knowledge the technician can use on the job the very next day. We specialize in training for Elite's residential HVAC software (RHVAC, Drawing Board, Manual D Ductsize , and Energy Audit.)

Training is available on-site and online. We also have a line of books and DVDs that give a jump-start on Elite's most popular programs for the residential contractor.
