AHU is the tool that UNILAB recommends for HVAC companies which need to design or rate Air Handling Units. 

Why would you prefer Unilab’s AHU?

Firstly, because AHU software is very handy; thanks to its autonomous management and its accurate yet fast steps to achieve selection completion. This software can be used both as a technical design tool to build a new unit or as a commercial tool to give to agents who need to provide multiple quotations in a short space of time. It enables users to input fan and compressor data quickly and easily.

Design Air Handling Units with focus on total cost

Using our AHU you can monitor all variables relating to costs: you can accurately the cost, price and weight of an air handling unit accurately. Thanks to AHU it's also possible to estimate the labour cost.

Several types of calculation

AHU provides the opportunity to process many types of calculation: using our COILS calculation engine it is possible to calculate heating, cooling, direct expansion, steam and condensing coils in AHU.  For those customers using heat recovery, AHU also permits the estimation of such coils.  All components analysis is carried out using our UNILAB DLL internal method, with the exception of the static heat recovery and thermodynamic coils calculations. It's also possible to introduce third party calculation DLLs. Another important AHU feature is the facility to calculate the balance point of units consisting of an evaporator, a condenser  and a compressor.

New version AHU CAD 3D!

AHU 3D is the evolution of AHU software which allows to create an air handling unit and display it in 3D view.  CAD 3D is the right solution for companies whose desire to better perform the work of Project Dept.: in two steps the user may create an air handling unit and evaluate if the unit really satisfies own requirements. Thanks to 3D view the user may evaluate the really sizing of box and easily add new components (accessories, portholes, doors, omega profiles, etc.). The new product CAD 3D allows you to create and design air handling units  from SCRATCH, starting by air flow data, frontal velocity and dimension of coil or directly by dimensional data required. 

This application is very simple and intuitive: it allows the creation of the scheme of the unit, to calculate and select all components required and eventually to create the 3D view of the unit. Furthermore it is possible to export all views  of unit in DXF, to create the list of panels and profiles, the bill of material of the unit and to do a quotation.
