Frequently Asked Questions
What is XaiR?
XaiR is a cloud-based HVAC selection, configuration, engineering, and manufacturing platform for custom air handling units (AHUs), standalone coils, and air-cooled chillers. Custom selections and product lines can be implemented per manufacturer.
How does XaiR connect sales, engineering, and manufacturing?
Sales, engineering, and production teams share a single project record with full revision tracking. A design moves directly from 3D configuration into validated submittals and manufacturing files.
How does the 3D configurator handle custom AHU layouts and pricing?
Teams can build and switch between standard and multi-section AHU layouts in 3D without starting over. You can customize casing, airflow components, and base frames while verifying dimensions and clearances. Pricing updates automatically for quotes and submittals.
How does standalone coil selection and manufacturing work in XaiR?
The user sets coil requirements, then configure fin-and-tube geometry, circuiting, materials, and casing alongside a live 3D model. XaiR generates arrangement and fabrication drawings, BOMs, DXF flat patterns, and STEP assemblies from the design. Engineering approval is required before manufacturing release.
How does XaiR support air-cooled chiller selection, comparison, and design review?
Enter design requirements and site constraints to generate candidate chillers. Compare price against efficiency. Teams can compare units side-by-side by performance, sound, and footprint. Then export 2D layouts, quotes, and submittals.
What engineering calculations and design review tools are built into the app?
XaiR calculates fan performance, sound power, weight distribution, casing leakage, and panel deflection. Teams can also inspect full-scale units in virtual or mixed reality to verify clearances and access.
How does AI assist with specifications, schedules, and compliance review?
XaiR extracts requirements from specification documents, emails, and schedules to build preliminary configurations. Automated Comply, Deviation, and Exception (CDE) reports flag spec differences and missing evidence for engineer approval.
What CAD, electrical, and manufacturing deliverables can XaiR generate?
XaiR produces mechanical CAD packages (editable DWG, 3D STEP, sheet metal DXFs, weldment drawings, and BOMs) and electrical documentation (conduit layouts, schedules, schematics, and nameplates).
Can XaiR be configured for our product lines, and how do we evaluate the app?
Yes. Equipment rules, pricing logic, and deliverable templates are customized per manufacturer. Request a demo through the contact form with a brief summary of your equipment and workflow goals.
