Hood.X professional kitchen selection tool available on Revit

We strongly believe that selecting the right size hood should not be complicated or take too much time. That is why we developed Hood.X selection tool – finally available on Revit and MagiCAD for Revit.

Intelligent objects for
professional kitchen ventilation design

The Climecon plugin contains all the hood models including the highly efficient next generation CleanMaster® hoods. When the hood is chosen with the help of Hood.X all the device information can be directly transferred into the design.

The advanced objects contain information about pressure drop and air quantities on top of spigots to significantly ease the upcoming phases of the design project.

 

How to get it

Air terminal units’ selection tool Vent.X has been available for Revit already for a while now. In case one has already downloaded the Revit plugin, the only thing needed to acquire Hood.X is simply to update the plugin.

The plugin can be downloaded free-of-charge here

This information helps to choose the right air terminal devices for the space and to place them optimally so for example, the airflow turning down from the barrier does not cause draft problems.
