Design Modes

Plandroid has a number of different Design Modes that let you tell the program what type of design you want to make:

Refrigerated Cooling

The Refrigerated mode allows you to design systems that work well in all climates and provide consistent cooling at a reasonable price.

Evaporative Cooling

The Evaporative mode allows you to design systems that are great in dry climates and use less energy than a refrigerative system.

Ducted Gas Heating

The Ducted Gas Heating mode allows you to design systems that provide an efficient form of domestic heating via an under-floor or in-ceiling duct system.

Ventilation Systems

The Ventilation mode allows you to design systems that provide high indoor air quality and can aid in retaining heat within your home.

Hydronics Systems

The Hydronics mode allows you to design systems for effective heating through under-floor coils or above-floor radiators.

Venturi Systems

The Venturi mode allows you to design special high-velocity, small duct systems for homes with limited ceiling space.

Lighting Systems

The Lighting mode is used to design efficient lighting systems that can help to reduce energy costs within your home.
