PDF-first workflow

How Prometo works

Upload an existing PDF floor plan, review automatically detected rooms and use the checked project data for heat load, material requirements and hydraulic balancing.

Short answer

The workflow has four steps: upload the PDF, detect rooms, review room and building-component data, then calculate heat load, materials and hydraulic balancing.

Reviewed by Prometo · Last updated:

1. Upload the PDF floor plan

Start with a suitable existing floor plan instead of redrawing every room from scratch.

2. Detect rooms automatically

Prometo identifies rooms and geometries so the project structure can be reviewed quickly.

3. Review the detected data

Check and correct room, geometry and building-component data before calculating results.

4. Calculate connected results

Calculate room heat load, material requirements and hydraulic balancing from the reviewed project data.

Review results by room

Trace inputs and results back to individual rooms and correct the project where required.

Test with a real project

The current beta is free for HVAC contractors who can test the workflow with a suitable PDF floor plan.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Where does the Prometo workflow start?

It starts with a suitable PDF floor plan. Prometo analyzes the plan and creates room and geometry data for review.

Are automatically detected rooms final?

No. The user must review and correct detected rooms, geometries and project data before relying on calculated results.

Which calculations are connected?

Prometo connects room-by-room heat load, material requirements and hydraulic balancing in one project workflow.

Can a house be calculated in under seven minutes?

That is an example for a typical single-family house with a suitable PDF. Actual duration depends on plan quality, building scope and the corrections required.

Is the beta free?

Yes. The current beta is free. Beta limitations and the need to verify project results are explained during onboarding.
