This is an appli­ca­tion used togeth­er with prog­eCAD. CAD­profi helps to design heat­ing, ven­ti­la­tion, water, sewage and gas sys­tems, med­ical and fire safe­ty, as well as air con­di­tion­ing, refrig­er­a­tion and oth­er tech­ni­cal instal­la­tion types in both con­struc­tion and indus­try. Intel­li­gent inser­tion of sym­bols and objects, auto­mat­ic draw­ing of instal­la­tion views, cre­ation of spec­i­fi­ca­tions and libraries of well-known man­u­fac­tur­ers are just some of the advan­tages of the application.

With the rental license you have full access to CAD­profi HVAC & Pip­ing. After 12 months, you choose whether to con­tin­ue or end the rental.

Pipes/​ventilation ducts
Draw real views of pipes and ven­ti­la­tion ducts with auto­mat­ic inser­tion of appro­pri­ate con­nec­tions that can be edit­ed later.

Schemat­ic lines
Schemat­ic lines can also be drawn in bun­dles. Lines can be giv­en any mark­ing, type and size. Addi­tion­al wiring options allow the user to quick­ly con­nect objects with oth­er objects or with luminaires.

Man­u­fac­tur­er library
Ready-made objects and com­po­nents from well-known man­u­fac­tur­ers includ­ing KSB, Vail­lant, Ges­tra, Wavin, Viess­mann, Wilo, Reflex and many more.

Air flow cal­cu­la­tions
Cal­cu­la­tions for air flow and veloc­i­ty in ven­ti­la­tion ducts.

Smart sym­bols
Intel­li­gent sym­bols that can be auto­mat­i­cal­ly insert­ed in lines, line cross­ings or when need­ed. Addi­tion­al options, such as allow­ing the simul­ta­ne­ous inser­tion of mul­ti­ple sym­bols, speed up work considerably.

Hydraulic cal­cu­la­tions
Hydraulic cal­cu­la­tions for line length selec­tion and auto­mat­ic draw­ing of heat­ing and hot water dia­grams in Uponor/​Clage library.

Para­met­ric fit­tings
Para­met­ric fit­tings and oth­er instal­la­tion objects with auto­mat­ic inser­tion into pipe lines or ven­ti­la­tion. Dur­ing the inser­tion of para­met­ric objects into the project, it is pos­si­ble to select stan­dard sizes or cus­tom or own saved sizes and types. The pro­gram also allows you to import dwg or dxf files down­loaded from man­u­fac­tur­ers’ websites.

Pre­de­fined charts
Pre­de­fined parts of dia­grams, heat­ing cir­cuits, etc. with the pos­si­bil­i­ty to save your own diagrams.

Process dia­grams (P&ID)
Easy cre­ation of process, heat­ing, water and sewage dia­grams. Draw plan, cross-sec­tion and oth­er instal­la­tion views.

BIM — Pos­si­bil­i­ty to cre­ate data in BIM tech­nol­o­gy
Build­ing Infor­ma­tion Mod­el­ing (BIM) tech­nol­o­gy is increas­ing­ly used in the con­struc­tion indus­try. Clas­si­fi­ca­tion and man­age­ment of lay­ers based on Open BIM (IFC clas­si­fi­ca­tion) is avail­able in CAD­profi. BIM data is includ­ed in spec­i­fi­ca­tions and can be trans­ferred to pro­grams used dur­ing the invest­ment phase.

In addi­tion, CAD­profi cre­ates data in BIM (includ­ing rfa Revit for­mat) for many man­u­fac­tur­ers. 3D mod­els includ­ed in our pro­gram can also be used in many CAD pro­grams that allow you to import and export files as IFC standard.
