Heating and cooling. Where the air goes.
Loftshape works out how much cooling each room needs and places the units for it: wall units where their air reaches the room, outdoor units outside, with the refrigerant lines and condensate drains between them. In 3D, each room’s floor is tinted by its load and every unit shows the air it throws.

A preliminary layout to design and discuss: the loads are estimates, and a qualified installer chooses, sizes and fits the real equipment.
