Medeek HVAC

I'm not sure if I'm ready to jump into this one yet, full force but... I am rolling some ideas around.
I'm probably less familiar with HVAC or mechanical design than I am with residential electrical, at least with electrical I do have some hands on experience. Funny how that is considering my degree is in mechanical engineering.
Is anyone familiar with WrightSoft? A Mitek company.
I'm pretty impressed by their offering and I think something along these lines in SketchUp would be really cool.
This extension would be the "M" in the mdkMEP suite.

That's a big one to jump into! Good luck! Where possible we apply a black box technique as far as the drawings go. "Install this sort of equipment. It comes out here, and has this sort of effect (requirements). Hire an expert."

The design and airflow calculations and such should be done by the appointed Mechanical Engineer. Until you’re ready to do that deep dive rather produce a tool that can be used for the layout, auto sense and insert the correct item at turns and has a variety of the diffusers / split units (typical) / grilles / whatever that can be used.

That is kind of my thinking, start with the basic layout (3D model) first, the calcs can always be added to the program.
