About

MEPFlow is browser-based mechanical design software for consulting engineers, mechanical designers, HVAC and plumbing professionals, and design-build contractors. It connects heating and cooling load calculations, ventilation and duct sizing, domestic-water and hydronic design, sanitary drainage, and underfloor heating in a shared floor-plan workspace. Users can organize building information, calculate room and system loads, lay out connected systems, size duct and pipe runs, and review calculation assumptions and results in one workflow. MEPFlow also provides public engineering calculators, including tools for pipe-water volume and hydronic flow, for standalone calculations without an account. The cloud application supports building-services design and early design-build planning, while calculated loads can inform subsequent system sizing. It focuses on mechanical system design rather than general-purpose CAD or BIM authoring.

Pros & Cons from Real Users

Pros

  • It is just terrible! Nothing good about it. Don't buy it you will regret it. There are better products that are free until you want to export the project or have free trials.
  • Looked professional. It’s everything but. Will no use nor recommend their products. Shameful and shady business.
  • Absolutely nothing. It's terrible. Barely any symbols or elements. Infuriating bugs and glitches. Worst design program I've ever used in my 40 years of life.

Cons

  • CAD Pro is difficult to navigate and not at all intuitive. Even simple things like adjusting line thickness require a learning curve as it does not use commonly expected functionality to do simple tasks. The UI looks like something out of Windows XP. There is a reason they have a zero refund policy and they do not offer a trial version or money back guarantee. If you buy it you are stuck!
  • After realizing it won’t run on Mac computers, the company refused to cancel my order.
  • Everything. It's a terrible program you can only use to draw lines. No footings, rafters, etc.
