On-Site Survey (Using magicplan)

For detailed instruction on how to use magicplan, please refer to their training material.

Step-by-step
  1. Download magicplan:

    Install magicplan and ensure you have a Report subscription plan.

  2. Measure the Rooms:

    Use LiDAR (requires compatible devices like iPhone Pro or iPad Pro) or manual scanning.

    Complete the room scan on a room-by-room basis, setting the room type in magicplan.

  3. [Optional] Add Objects:

    Add fireplaces, radiators, windows, doors, heat pumps, and water heaters in magicplan.

    These items will link to h2x to inform heat load calculations and design requirements.

  4. Add Notes:

    For Radiators, include the radiator type (e.g., Type 11, Type 22) in the object notes for accurate mapping during import.

    For Vaulted Ceilings, add a note in the room, as vaulted ceilings must be added manually in h2x as a level above.

  5. Align Levels:

    Add the X marker to a common point across levels in magicplan.

    This marker will automatically align the levels during import.

Without a paid subscription, projects can be completed in magicplan but won’t import into h2x.
