Easy Button
One button for:
- Load calculations, ventilation calculations, zoning.
- Diffuser selection and layout.
- VAV, AHU, Chiller Plant and Boiler Plant (as necessary) selection.
- Simply link in the architectural model and hit the easy button.
Chiller and Boiler Plant Configurator
Automatically feed airside data into hydronics.
- Pull data from the airside equipment to size hydronic plants.
- Plan for equipment redundancy quickly and easily.
- Automatically look up the local ASHRAE weather station and get the evaporation wet bulb and mean coincident dry bulb for cooling tower selections.
- Automatically determines if natural gas is available at the site and responds accordingly.
AHU Configurator
Combine data for easy AHU/RTU Selections.
- Includes all ASHRAE weather stations for climatic data lookup inside of Autodesk® Revit®.
- Automatically determines if natural gas is available at the site and responds accordingly.
- Pulls airflow and ventilation data from Revit Spaces and performs ASHRAE 62.1 ventilation calculations.
- Combines data sources, performs psychrometric calculations, and determines AHU/RTU component Requirements.
AutoZoning and VAV AutoSelect
Real VAV selections and schedules automatically.
- Utilize ASHRAE 62.1 Space Type air classifications to automatically zone AHUs.
- Zone VAVs are automatically based on load, adjacency, and maximum spaces to a zone.
- Use Price Industries’ cloud-based selection software to automatically select VAVs.
- The schedule provides accurate values for pressure drop, delta T, and flow.
- VAVs remain linked to selection software and can be easily updated as changes occur.
Automated Diffuser Selection and Layout
Consistent layouts in less time.
- Select diffusers straight from the manufacturer's catalogue.
- Automatically align diffusers with the ceiling grid.
- Addresses spaces of any orientation and shape.
- Automatically push shared parameters to off brand diffuser types.
- Automatically separate unique diffuser options for scheduling.
Heating and Cooling Loads Toolkit
Faster loads, fewer errors.
- Complete and accurate heating and cooling loads with a single click of a button.
- Place meaningful spaces that encompass the entire building envelope.
- Automatically assign ASHRAE 62.1 space types based on architectural room data.
- Pull internal loads directly from the electrical and architectural models.
- Use IECC code minimum thermal properties for envelope constructions.
