PipeSketch - Plumbing Planner

Plan your bathroom or whole-house plumbing on a wall or floor photo and hand your plumber a polished Plumbing Brief PDF. HOW IT WORKS Photo a wall or floor plan, start from a blank grid, or scan the space with LiDAR. Set the scale with one reference line. Place fixtures and the pipes route themselves to your supply, drain and vent points. Check the warnings. Export. AUTO-ROUTING Every fixture gets its hot and cold supply, its waste or soil drain and its vent run automatically. Drag any run to take it manual. Move a fixture and its pipes follow. FIXTURES AND ROUGH-IN 25 fixture types, from WC, basin, sink, shower, bath and bidet to appliances, valves, meter and floor drain, each with region-typical rough-in heights. RULES BY REGION Live warnings for missing traps, insufficient fall and undersized connections, checked against EN 806 and EN 12056 (EU), BS EN 806 with Building Regulations Part G and H (UK), IPC and UPC (US, as a planning reference only, not jurisdiction-compliant) and AS/NZS 3500 (AU/NZ). Where a check is not modelled for your region, the app says so. PROPERTIES One water system per place. Scan a whole house with LiDAR into a floor plan, then group rooms and bathrooms under a property with a shared region profile. THE PLUMBING BRIEF A PDF for your plumber with surface sketches, a fixture schedule, a pipe list with sizes and materials, the warnings and a "questions for my plumber" checklist. PNG and CSV export too. FLOOR HEATING (separate purchase, included in Trade) Plan underfloor heating on a LiDAR scan or on a floor plan file (.roomsketch) from PipeSketch or WireSketch. Sort rooms into storeys with a manifold each, choose the floor system and pipe, and get loop layouts. EU (EN standards) and UK homes also get room-by-room heat-load estimates and flow rates using the EN 12831 and EN 1264 methods with manufacturer-typical output coefficients, plus heat source advice; elsewhere, layout planning only. The Parts tab lists planning quantities, from pipe to manifolds, to check with your installer and share as CSV or PDF. Build-up advice says what the floor needs room for. PipeSketch does not size the heat source, pump or mixing valve. A read-only sample home shows a plan and its parts list before you buy. TRADE MODE (separate purchase) Turn a plan into a priced document: customers, a price book, estimates by default and binding offers when you choose, with PDF export. Offers can include the floor heating parts. You write the terms; the app never adds legal text. KNOWLEDGE BASE Plain-language entries on the standards and the formulas the app uses, including what it deliberately simplifies. 9 LANGUAGES English, German, French, Dutch, Turkish, Spanish, Italian, Polish, Portuguese. PRIVACY AND ADS Your planning data stays on your device. No accounts, no cloud. The free version is ad-supported, with consent where required, and any one-time purchase removes all ads. PipeSketch is a planning tool and does not replace a professional. All plumbing and heating work must be designed, verified and carried out by a qualified installer in accordance with local regulations.
