ArchiPhysics by A-Null?

[Anonymous]

Hi everyone,
we're looking for an AC plug-in to evaluate energy efficiency and overall sustainability of our projects.

We've tried EcoDesigner, but unfortunately we found it a bit too simplistic. A couple of years ago we used also Ecotect, before it got bought by Autodesk (the Evil!)...

Now we're trying to look into ArchiPhysics by A-Null. Has anyone ever tried it?


Cheers

Enrico

Dear Enrico,

EcoDesigner is an evaluation tool and and for your purposes (if you apart from being an architect also are a professional energy consultant) built as a fast model information generator the the full VIP Energy program. Check out their website and ask them about localized content for your specific needs to see if it will work for you. VIP-energy is heavily used here by the specialists and it's a solid app.

We're asking the same questions, and would love to hear the experiences of those who are using the ArchiCAD/EcoDesigner/VIP-Energy tools.
