Die kompetente und schnelle Lösung, Haustechnik professionell zu berechnen. Wir haben die Zusammenarbeit zwischen der App und dem ZVPLAN Haupt-Programm immer weiter perfektioniert. Unser Ziel dabei ist es, die Erfassung der Daten vor Ort mit den umfassenden Möglichkeiten am Schreibtisch zu verbinden. Unsere Cloud auf deutschen Servern sorgt dabei für Datensicherheit und einfachem Datentransport. Mit der ZVPLAN-App erfolgt das komplette Aufmaß eines typischen Raums im Einfamilienhaus innerhalb von nur 2–3 Minuten. Alles, was dafür benötigt wird, ist die neueste App-Version und ein iPhone mit Lidar-Sensor. Durch einmaliges Abgehen des Raumes und Erfassen der Ecken mit der Kamera stehen sofort sämtliche Maße zur Verfügung: Wände, Fenster, Türen, Decken und Böden werden automatisch und schnell vermessen. Anschließend genügt eine kurze Kontrolle der erfassten Bauteile, und das Aufmaß ist abgeschlossen. Darüber hinaus bietet die App eine strukturierte und normgerechte Erfassung der Heizsituation mittels HeizungsCheck. Für die lokale Raumerfassung kann ein Lasermessgerät oder ein iPhone/iPad mit Lidar-Sensor verwendet werden, wodurch die Arbeitsprozesse deutlich beschleunigt werden.

Manage and monitor heating circuits, and receive important information via email. This way, you always know the status of your HDG heating system. The myHDG app is available for all HDG heating systems with HDG Control XL and a myHDG account.
