What is AVAIL Select - MEP | Commercial?

In partnership with ENGworks Global and gridBPM, AVAIL has created AVAIL Select commercial Channels, Architectural and MEP. 

The AVAIL Select - MEP | Commercial Channel, in particular, hosts over 5,000 Revit MEP files from over 40 manufacturers to provide mechanical, electrical, and plumbing engineers with the trusted .rfa and .rvt files they need for Revit projects.

 

AVAIL Select - MEP Commercial is available for free on AVAIL’s secure marketplace. Download AVAIL to get started.

 

Electrical, general facility services products, and HVAC Revit files from trusted manufacturers such as Goodman or Westlake Pipe & Fittings can be easily searched and found in AVAIL’s content management platform through AVAIL’s system of tags and filters. Then, simply download the files you need, one file at a time or in bulk. 

For example, if you are looking for specific Daikin Revit families, you're in luck! We have over 300 in the AVAIL Select - MEP | Commercial Channel today. From more than 100 heat pump families to air conditioners, furnaces, and fitting connections, all the Daikin Revit families you need are in one trusted source. You can download single files (no comprehensive zip folders to bog down your machine here!) and drag it directly into your desired Revit project. 

Plus, all the Daikin Revit families are in the same place as the NIBCO Revit families ... and Meuller … and Bell & Gossett!

Compared to searching through all 40-plus manufacturers’ websites for trusted Revit MEP files, downloading large zip folders to then search the folder systems to find the right file, AVAIL Select’s search functionality is a huge time saver.

Over 40 manufacturers, all in one place

Need Revit content from a specific manufacturer? As of publication, there were 5,148 Revit MEP files from 49 manufacturers in the AVAIL Select - MEP | Commercial Channel. Explore them all below, or in the Channel itself.

NIBCO, Panasonic, Wenger, Mueller, The Whalen Company, Rheem, and Daikin Revit families can all be found in AVAIL Select’s MEP Channel.

A frictionless future: AI and ML

At AVAIL, we are always working to help customers find the information they need even faster. Today, that means using artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML) technologies. We’re running a few experiments on our MEP Channel accordingly. 

Our AI Chatbot,
for example, has chewed through manufacturer documents in the MEP Channel to help engineers query for specific needs. Additionally, we are working on a Related Content feature that will eventually associate content automatically, suggesting related families like those from our MEP Channel in projects for increased design and engineering efficiency
