Anyone have experience with HydraCAD or making fire sprinkler piping plans with ArchiCAD ?

What sort of add-ons, tools, etc...do we have available for ArchiCAD that can model fire sprinkler piping ? Is this something we can do with the MEP modeler ?

Nope, but the MEP add-on lets you do this...

Have a look at ArchiPIPE
I have used it with great success & you can make your own Sprinkler heads & flow Switches Etc.to Attach if you wish to

As Karl said MEP can do it better

I have ordered the MEP Modeler but only have the download so far. I don't think I have it installed properly yet. Disk and installation in instructions are in the mail. Should be here soon.
