Free Duct and Pipe Takeoff Tool
Mark up a plan PDF and total duct and pipe by the linear foot, with your own rates. It runs in your browser with no signup. It is a takeoff worksheet for contractors, not a bid.
How it works
Upload your plan
Open a plan PDF in the tool. It stays in your browser; nothing is uploaded to a server.
Set the scale
Trace one known dimension on the plan so the tool can convert what you draw into real linear feet.
Mark up duct and pipe
Draw along the duct and pipe runs and drop fittings. The worksheet totals the linear feet as you work.
Read totals and export
Enter your own rates to see a planning total, then export the worksheet to CSV, an Estimate sheet, or PDF.
Duct and pipe takeoff questions
What is a duct and pipe takeoff?
A takeoff is the count of how much duct and pipe a job needs, measured off the plan by the linear foot. This tool totals those quantities from the lines you mark up. It does not size the system.
Is it free, with no signup or install?
Yes. It runs in your browser with no account, no email required, and nothing to install. Your work is saved on this browser only.
How do I take off from a PDF plan?
Upload a plan PDF, set the scale by tracing one known dimension, then draw along the duct and pipe runs. The worksheet totals the linear feet as you go, using the rates you enter.
Is this a takeoff or an estimate?
A takeoff. It totals quantities and applies the rates you type in, so you can plan. It is not a bid or a contract price, and the rates are yours to set. Verify on site before you quote.
Does it size ductwork or run Manual J?
No. This is a quantity takeoff, not a load calculation. It does not size ducts, compute CFM, or run Manual J. Use your own sizing method or software for that.
Who is this for?
HVAC and mechanical contractors and estimators doing duct and pipe takeoffs on residential and commercial plans. It is a planning worksheet, not a homeowner cost tool.
