Underfloor heating software for Mac: floor plan with circuits, manifold and rooms in MyHeating Designer

Important — planning tool, not a certified report

All heat-loss, output, pressure and flow figures are planning estimates based on simplified physical models (U·A·ΔT, cell-based UFH output, Darcy–Weisbach, etc.). They do not replace a certified DIN/EN design report or manufacturer guarantees. Inputs and results should be reviewed by a qualified professional before you build or order materials.

Features

Everything for a thoughtful UFH layout

From PDF import or blank sheet to pipe lengths, hydraulic hints and a printable project report.

Plan or blank sheet

Import PDF/PNG/JPG and set scale — or draw on a virtual sheet with a fixed 1:N scale.

Model the building

Walls with layered build-up and exterior insulation, openings, rooms, storeys and reference floor below.

Heating areas & pipes

Heating zones, blocked areas, place manifolds and draw circuits manually with bend-radius checks.

Heat loss & output

Per-room loss and UFH output estimates — including q′, W/m², reserve and status per room.

Hydraulics (planning)

Recommended flow, ΔT hints, pressure-drop estimates and balancing overview on the manifold.

Export & diagnostics

PDF project report, heat map (qArea), diagnostics list and per-room calculation report.

Typical workflow

From plan to results in a few steps

1

Create a project

Import a plan or use a blank sheet with size and scale. Set units and heat sources.

2

Building & rooms

Draw walls, define rooms with floor/ceiling build-up, target temperature and openings.

3

Lay out UFH

Heating zones inside rooms, place manifolds, draw circuits and assign outlets.

4

Review & export

Heat-loss dashboard, project diagnostics and PDF report — for your records and installer meetings.

Results

What you get at the end

Pipe lengths per circuitHeated, connection, vertical (manifold height) and total — for material and manifold planning.
Volume & flow ratePipe volume at the manifold and recommended flow (l/min) from heat load and ΔT — planning values.
Heat-loss overviewPer room: area, losses (floor, walls, ceiling, openings, ventilation), W/m² and data-quality hints.
UFH output & reserveAchieved output, required W/m², q′ and margin/deficit — with status per room.
Heat map (PDF)Area heat map of specific output qArea (W/m²) — A4 to A1, portrait or landscape.
Full project PDF reportFloor plan, tables, per-room calculation reports, floor build-up appendix, diagnostics and planning notice.

Audience

Who is this for?

Homeowners & DIY

Plan your own UFH, understand lengths and areas, and give your installer a solid starting point.

Small heating firms

Quick pre-planning on Mac, material overview and talking points — without a heavy full-suite SHK package.

Technical planners

Visible formulas and calculation reports, diagnostics for missing inputs — honestly labelled as planning only.

UFH on Mac

Underfloor heating planning software — built for macOS

Planning hydronic underfloor heating means working from a floor plan, estimating pipe lengths, and checking whether output matches heat demand. MyHeating Designer is underfloor heating software for Mac (Mac App Store) — not a Windows CAD suite, not radiators, not cloud-based BIM.

Import a PDF floor plan or start on a blank sheet. Draw walls and rooms, define heating zones, route pipe circuits, place the manifold, and export a printable project report. A practical underfloor heating design workflow before you talk to your installer.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions — underfloor heating software for Mac

Is there underfloor heating software for Mac?

Yes. MyHeating Designer is a native macOS app (14.6+) for hydronic underfloor heating only. Download from the Mac App Store with a 3-day free trial.

Can I design underfloor heating myself?

The app supports pre-planning: floor plan, rooms, zones, pipe routing, manifold, heat-loss estimates and PDF export. It does not replace a certified DIN/EN design — have results reviewed by a professional.

Does it work with my PDF floor plan?

Yes. Import PDF, PNG or JPG, set scale from a known dimension, then draw walls and circuits on top. Or start from a blank scaled sheet.

How much does it cost?

Free download, full features for 72 hours. Then a one-time in-app purchase (Full Unlock). No subscription.

Do I need internet or an account?

No. Projects stay on your Mac. No login, no cloud sync, no in-app analytics.
