As of version 2025.c, in CYPEHVAC users can force the dimensions of the air ducts and the flow rates of the terminal elements.
Furthermore, the algorithm for designing the terminal elements is modified in order to maintain the selection made by the user if all the checks carried out on the equipment are fulfilled.
In version 2025.c, an option has been added to configure the display of significant decimals in the "Bill of quantities" tab in the apps. This new feature is used to adapt the level of numerical precision to the specific needs of each project, providing greater flexibility in the presentation of the data.
To define this configuration, a drop-down menu has been added in the "General parameters" > "Decimals" section, next to the number of decimals in each field, with the following options:
This configuration is compatible with the FIEBDC-3 (.bc3) standard, to ensure that adjustments made to the number of decimal places can be read and exported correctly by the data exchange tools available in the app.
In version 2025.c, the preview for moving dockable windows within the apps has been improved. Now, when dragging a dockable window, the preview of its docked position is displayed transparently, allowing a clearer view of the underlying work area.
This new feature makes it easy to find the optimal location for each dockable window without obstructing important elements or losing sight of relevant project information. It also provides a smoother and more modern visual experience, aligned with best practices in user interface design.
Version 2025.c of the CYPE apps includes the following improvements in the management of DXF and DWG file templates:
As of version 2025.c, the "Drawing layouts" panel uses hardware acceleration for drafting drawings. This implementation allows users to represent and move the model more smoothly.
This panel is present in several CYPE programs, although hardware acceleration is much more noticeable in programs and projects with multiple elements (CYPECAD, CYPE 3D, CYPECAD MEP, etc.).
CYPEHVAC now includes the possibility of inserting plenums for outlets in duct systems.
In version 2025.b, outlets were added to the program; now, in this new version 2025.c, these outlets can also be entered in the plenums for outlets.
From the "Catalogue management" option, different plenum manufacturer's catalogues can be downloaded. These new catalogues, incorporated in this version, contain the 3D drawing with the plenum geometry, as well as the plenum connections and their analysis data.
These elements can be used by the user in the installation from the "Plenum for outlet" option in the "Air terminals" section.
In version 2025.c, the possibility of entering plenums in duct systems has been included.
From the "Catalogue management" option, different plenum manufacturer's catalogues can be downloaded. These new catalogues, incorporated in this version, contain the 3D drawing with the plenum geometry, as well as the plenum connections and their analysis data.
These elements can be used in the system from the "Plenum" option in the "Equipment" section.
In CYPEHVAC version 2025.c, manifolds for distributing VRF systems have been added. As a result, branches with more than two outlets can be designed.
Branching joints can also be inserted manually by connecting their ends, although the program continues to place them automatically and representatively if they are not placed but are necessary.
Within the air-source heat pump units, the CYPEHVAC version 2025.c has added the hydraulic bibloc system. This system consists of a compact outdoor unit and an indoor unit containing the hydraulic components of the system, connected by water pipes. These units can be found in the Bosch, Daikin, Mitsubishi Electric, Panasonic, Saunier Duval and Vaillant aerothermal system catalogues, available in the "Catalogue management" option.
The layout of the hydraulic bibloc air-source heat pump system works in a similar way to the bibloc air-source heat pump system. The selection of the set (outdoor unit and indoor unit) is made on the panel of the indoor unit, from which the water-based air-conditioning system inside the building starts. Furthermore, the primary circuit can be laid out by placing the outdoor unit in the work area and connecting it to the indoor unit by means of water pipes. In this case, the pipe length, height difference and pipe diameter limits established by the manufacturer for the primary circuit shall be checked.
The following modifications have been made to the apps available in the CYPE Menu:
New apps
Deleted apps
As of version 2025.b, CYPEHVAC can also be installed in Japanese. The languages in which this application can be installed are now as follows:
In this new version, the air terminals available in CYPEHVAC have been extended with the addition of supply and exhaust valves.
These elements are mainly used in controlled mechanical ventilation (CMV) systems.
Users can incorporate these elements into the system from the "Outlet" option in the "Air distribution" section, available once a manufacturer's catalogue has been downloaded via the "Catalogue management" button.
