I am looking for a good, easy to use program for designing and quoting radiant jobs. The program I am currently forcred to use is so difficult to use and I am getting very frustrated. I am looking for something that I can create a customized data base and make real profesional looking quotes & summaries with. Does anybody have any recommendations??

    Design program

    I use 3 programs. First, I perform a heatloss with Wirsbo Design suite 6.0. This performs the heatloss and radiant design at the same time. Easy to use and consistent. Next, I use Hydronic Pros-Hydronic Design Studio for the the system design. The program also has a heatloss calculator, but I like to have the radiant design included. Go take one of Siggy's classes and get the book and software. Finally, I use microsoft Visio to document electrical and mechanical drawing. They makes for a well rounded engineered system.
    Good Luck Jeffrey

    I think...

    Wright Soft had something to do with at least one (Wirsbo) of the programs mentioned by Jeff...

    I'm using Visio for all my mechanical and electrical drawings. I'm building my own data base of drop in's.

    I use SiggySoft for my load calcs and hydraulic (pump sizing) calcs.
