Ventilation Fan Exhaust System Design

Explore the comprehensive features of our ventilation fan exhaust system design tool:

Duct Sizing Parameters: Select your preferred duct sizing parameters with ease. Choose from different duct shapes (e.g., round, rectangular), set maximum velocities, and specify allowable pressure drops to ensure optimal system performance.

Intuitive Drawing: Effortlessly draw and adjust your duct layout and grille locations. The tool simplifies the process of designing complex systems, allowing for quick modifications and accurate system configurations.

Automated Duct and Fan Sizing: The software automatically runs CIBSE-verified calculations for duct dimensions and pressure drops while matching them with the fan duty, ensuring balanced airflow and efficient operation throughout the entire ventilation system.

Comprehensive Exports: Export all necessary calculations to spreadsheets, bill of materials, and detailed drawings in both PDF and CAD formats. Generate professional-grade documents, including system layouts, equipment schedules, and detailed ductwork designs, ready for submission or further editing.

CASE STUDIES
Award-Winning Heating Design

"Using h2x was pivotal, allowing for precise heat loss calculations, pipe sizing and flow rates for each room.

This level of detail ensured that the heating load accurately matched each space's requirements, minimising energy waste and maximising comfort.

The strategic placement of heat pumps and careful sizing of pipework were crucial in maintaining minimal pressure drops over an 18-metre distance."

CASE STUDIES
Greengate, UK

"I would estimate over the length of this project, I have spent 50% less time designing than I would on our previous software.

The ability to output the design straight into Revit assisted clash detection and coordination."

CASE STUDIES
Salon Republic, USA

"The quality of the designs saw significant improvement with the adoption of h2x."

"The software offers precision through detailed result outputs and advanced options for efficient pipe sizing, allowing heating engineers to optimise based on parameters like maximum velocity and pressure drop."
