Easy Heat Loss Calculations
- Discover the ease of precise heat load calculations with easy-to-use MCS heating design software, ideal for off-plan assessments and on-site surveys.
- The MCS-aligned results ensure that designs and installations are accurate and fully compliant with industry standards.
Intuitive System Sizing
- Design system layouts feature easy drag-and-drop features. Connect equipment (e.g. heat pump) and components (e.g. heat emitters) to visualise the entire setup.
- CIBSE-verified calculations are automated, and intuitive system sizing is carried out with valuable insights on system volume and index length.
Comprehensive, Branded Reports
- Generate comprehensive MCS-aligned heat loss reports branded with company logos in a fraction of the time.
- The reports include room-by-room heat loss, emitter summaries, heat pump systems performance, domestic hot water energy usage and costs, providing a clear overview of the project’s performance.
Automate Bill of Materials
- Download automatically generated, detailed Bill of Materials.
- Simplify the takeoff process, while covering heat pumps, pipes, equipment, fittings, valves and emitters, saving time and reducing errors in ordering materials.
Elevate Client Drawings
- professional PDF drawings that include title blocks, emitter schedules and are branded with logos.
- These clear, detailed drawings help present designs effectively, facilitating quicker approvals and enhancing client satisfaction.
Accurate Installation Plans
- Keep on-site teams informed with easily shared, paperless installation plans.
- Teams can access the latest version, with sizes, locations and heights, for a smooth installation process and fewer errors.
