Best AI for plumbing takeoff

What an AI has to get right

• Fixtures from the plan and the schedule. Water closets, lavatories, sinks and drains, cross-checked against the fixture schedule.
• Pipe by size and system. Domestic water, sanitary and vent, and gas each run separately, by diameter.
• Equipment. Water heaters, interceptors and pumps from the equipment schedule.

Where AI takeoffs go wrong

The common errors are counting fixtures only from the floor plan, lumping pipe sizes together, and mistaking a callout's leader line for a pipe run.

How Field24 handles it

Field24 counts fixtures and measures runs from the plans, keeps pipe sizes as separate rows, and marks each count and run on the sheet so you can see exactly what was measured.
