Pipe-Lite is our pipe estimating program which includes pipe only. It’s comprehensive, affordable, user friendly and flexible. It works on 32 and 64 bit processors and on windows XP, Vista and WIN 7 operating systems.

The pipe estimating portion of the program multiplies manually input quantities of pipe, valves & fittings by material prices and by labor productivity factors in hours/unit. The descriptions and material and labor factors can be input to suit your company’s requirements. The program comes with several piping types pre-installed to help you get on line more quickly and can handle 500 different piping or material types with up to 996 items per pipe type.

The material and labor descriptions and prices are pre-installed and the user has the ability to change material prices and the labor productivity factors to one of the national standards or factors that the user has developed for his company. Each system allows you to adjust the labor or material by a factor to reflect job difficulty or material price increases. The special factors feature allows you to change the price of or the labor productivity for individual items in a system and the program will revert back to the default factors on other systems in the same job and one future jobs.

A more complete view of the program can be obtained by downloading a demo and reviewing the input screens and help sections provided therein. Much of this same information is available in the tutorial section of this website
