Overview

Most[video sectionlike 3D overview video]

In the plan task you model your plan and create design options based on the surveyed plan. The plan is the building floor plan as surveyed in it's current state. In the design options you can then:

  • Place where new radiators, the heat pump and cylinder will havego a video that I think will be embedded in this guide? Will see how it looks - may want to include some videos inon the linked guides instead of it ends up looking mental 

    1. Overall summary of plan task. Explain surveyed plan and designspecify optionsany (mayberelevant dont need separate guide for this? or maybe do because we want one place that explains whats constant across plans and whats not? depending on whats decided either include that info here or summarise and link to other guide)accessories 
    2. Specify emitters, view room details and input any heat loss overrides.
    3. Complete sound assessment (UK only) 
    4. Complete ventilation calculations

Changes made to the room temperature, ACH and emitters are specific to each option. Changes will not apply across plans. Adjust the Plan if you would like changes to apply to each option

Before starting plan -plan, make sure you've set up your material library!library [link]with default palettes. This will save you having to create a material palette each timetime. 

  • Complete initial plan (link to other guides that go into more detail on individual steps - want overall video covering everything) https://help.heatpunk.co.uk/books/plan-task/chapter/creating-a-floor-plan. Expand emitter section in floor plan guide with warning to explain differences between plans again and adding existing underfloor. Completed surveyed plan - yay! Click finish plan

  • Ventilation calc - does this need a video? maybe to show where you can edit it because it's a bit hidden and to emphasise that its per plan. Then link to ventilation calc guide, this guide will just cover complete basics of where do I complete, where do I edit? 

  • Sound check (UK)

  • This guide then talks about dragging and dropping heat pumps and cylinder 

  • Heat sources - video and then link to more detailed guide

  • Hot water - does this need a video? maybe just a gif
