HVAKR: About HVAKR is cloud HVAC design software for commercial MEP engineers and HVAC design teams. Users upload architectural floor plans to create project spaces, establish zoning and envelope assumptions, and assign ASHRAE 62.1 space types. The software calculates heating and cooling loads using the Radiant Time Series method and supports workflows aligned with ANSI/ASHRAE/ACCA 183. Engineers can revise design inputs, recalculate loads, and use natural-language tools to make bulk edits or identify spaces affecting loads. HVAKR carries project data from load calculations into airflow calculations, duct layout, and sizing. Teams can collaborate in shared projects, use a Revit add-in for Revit 2025 and 2026, and access a public API on paid plans; gbXML export is available on Team plans and higher.
