AI Duct Insulation Estimation Software
AI duct insulation estimation without the perimeter math.
Ductwork insulators live in square feet, and square feet come from duct dimensions, lap factors, and a stack of fittings. Canaveral takes off the duct system once and gives you external surface area by size, separated by wrap, board, and lined runs, priced the way the spec reads.

How Canaveral Helps
You re-take off the whole duct system just to get square footage
The sheet metal contractor rarely hands over a clean duct list, so you trace every supply, return, and exhaust run yourself before you can even start figuring surface area.
Take off duct once, get surface area automatically
Trace the run and Canaveral calculates external surface area from the duct dimensions. QuickDraw reads sizes straight off the plans so you are not keying in every width by height by hand.
Perimeter math eats your night
Rectangular duct is two times width plus height per linear foot, round is pi times diameter, and every fitting adds area. Running those conversions in a spreadsheet for hundreds of runs is where mistakes creep in.
Surface area and lap factors built in
Square footage rolls up by duct size with your overlap and waste factor already applied. Elbows, transitions, and offsets carry their own area so the fitting count stops being a guess.
Lined and unlined duct gets mixed together
Internally lined duct does not get external wrap, exposed spiral might get rigid board, and double wall changes the scope again. Sorting what gets what off a marked-up set is slow and easy to fumble.
Separate scope by system and spec
Tag runs by system, service, and insulation type, then filter your takeoff so wrap, board, and lined duct never land in the same bucket. The quantities come out the way the spec reads.
Thickness and facing change by service
Pound-and-a-half wrap here, 2 inch FSK there, ASJ rigid board in the mechanical room. Pricing each square foot by the right material and facing is a manual lookup every time.
Price by material, thickness, and facing
Your price book holds duct wrap, board, facing, and accessories with installed cost and labor per square foot. Assign the spec once and every matching run prices itself.
And much, much more. See more features
Square footage you can stand behind.
Insulation bids are won and lost on quantity. Miss the fittings, forget the lap, or wrap duct the spec says is lined, and the number is wrong before pricing ever starts.
Canaveral builds external surface area straight from the duct takeoff and holds your wrap, board, facing, and accessory pricing in one place. Set your installed cost and labor per square foot once, and every run prices the same way no matter who built the takeoff.
Generate square footage by thickness and facing, broken out by system, formatted for how you submit. When the takeoff is done, the bid is ready to send.
AI speeds you up, & the data layer keeps your bid honest. With Canaveral, you don't need to sacrifice quality for speed.
