designPH 2.2 (IP / unit switcher) - public beta

We are pleased to an­nounce that the pub­lic beta for design­PH v2.2 (IP / units switch­er) is now avail­able for down­load. This brings the pos­sib­il­ity of live switch­ing of unit sys­tems, so the full heat bal­ance cal­cu­la­tion and entries of ma­ter­i­al prop­er­ties can be viewed in al­tern­at­ive unit sys­tems.

The down­load is free for all users with an ex­ist­ing design­PH v2 li­cence. Note that as this is a beta ver­sion, there may still be some minor is­sues, in par­tic­u­lar the user in­ter­face can be slower to up­date.

 

The in­staller down­load is found at ht­tps://data­base.pass­ive­house.com/en/down­load/pro­duct_page/design­ph_2-2_IP. You need to be logged-in to the PHI-Portal with a user ac­count that has a design­PH li­cence. Once in­stalled, the beta-GUI al­lows you to have both the cur­rent SI-only re­lease (v2.1.15a) and the unit-switch­er ver­sion (v2.2.13b) and choose which one to load when you start Sketch­Up.

 

There is also a ded­ic­ated for­um cat­egory at ht­tps://for­um.pass­ive­house.com/c/design­ph/design­ph-2-2-unit-switch­er-pub­lic-beta. Here you can find fur­ther de­tails and can con­trib­ute to dis­cus­sions and give feed­back.
