File-based transfer and backup for HVAC projects

MechLedger HVAC uses files that you can store or move yourself. Before import, the app shows the available information and lets you choose what should happen to the project.

.hvacproject

One project as a transfer package

.hvacproject is for one project and can include its details, calculations, materials, actions, folders, photos, reports and technical files.

Export Create a portable package containing the information for one project.
Import as new The package can create a separate project on the receiving device.
Merge Additions can be brought into an existing project after preview and review.

.hvacbackup

Backup for projects and personal libraries

A .hvacbackup can cover all or selected projects. The full or lightweight option determines whether large media files are included.

Full backup

Includes projects with photos, reports and technical files when the complete documentation is needed.

Lightweight backup

Keeps core data, calculations and project materials without large media files.

Personal libraries

Personal product, pipe and fitting libraries are included in app backup and restored additively.

Restore as new projects

Restore creates new projects and does not silently replace records already on the device.

Transfer starts with an explicit user action and files chosen by the user. Projects are not synchronized automatically over the internet.
