PlumbingCAD Overview

A true CAD-based software, PlumbingCAD lets you quickly import PDF or AutoCAD drawings, trace the plumbing system and then generate PEX-based materials lists and quotations. You also get 3-D views instantly as you define the system in 2-D, making it easier to visualize and communicate your work. The reports and drawing printouts greatly assist with approvals and installations. PlumbingCAD is an essential productivity tool for your PEX plumbing system work.

Import PDF and AutoCAD Drawings
PlumbingCAD lets you import existing plumbing system drawings, and there is no need to redraw the floorplan. You save hours of design time by simply defining the plumbing system over the imported drawing. Import AutoCAD, PDF or JPG drawings for use as the template for your plumbing system definition.
