  • 01

    Real-time updates

    The BIM model is updated according to the changes made in the project and/or to the equipment in real time.

  • 02

    Saves designers' time

    Saves more than the 80% of designers' time, compared to use of regular 'static/general' BIM models.

  • 03

    Integrated with I-CHILL and I-FCU

    Make a wide range of evaluations in a short period of time before choosing the most suitable product.

IDEA is proud to present the innovative BIM technology application created for mechanical, electrical and plumbing engineers and contractors.

DYNAMIC HVAC BIM application is based on a dynamic approach that brings the specific parameters of HVAC equipment into BIM model, allowing a designer to evaluate the most efficient solution and quickly update his Revit MEP project.

Complete technical information in your model

Instead of the usual 3D static model with general parameters, the designer brings in his model a complete list of technical information for each selected product, e.g.:

  • Full list of performance and energy calculation
  • Specific product dimension (size and weight) including precise position of hydraulic and electrical connections
  • Technical catalogue and product specification based on input provided by designer
  • IOM manual
  • Product life cycle
  • Product disposal and recycling information
  • Product certification (ARI, EUROVENT, SAFETY, CE, etc.)
  • Building energy assessment (referring only to the selected HVAC products)

Updated in real time

With the aim of significantly saving the time in the design and decision making process, the graphic and computational rendering of DYNAMIC HVAC BIM allows that BIM model is updated according to the changes made in the project and/or to the equipment in real time.

This results in having the full control of HVAC design from the early design phase and saves more than the 80% of designers' time, compared to use of regular 'static/general' BIM models.

Integration with I-CHILL and I-FCU

Additionally, the use of DYNAMIC HVAC BIM with our I-CHILL software gives the designer the possibility to make a wide range of evaluations in a short period of time before choosing the most suitable product for his project.

Dynamic HVAC BIM can be integrated with our I-FCU software allowing the selection of fan-coil units with specific parameters and importing them as BIM model!
