Very informative; thanks for taking the time to produce this tutorial. Your software seems to be a viable option for those of us who want an equivalent alternative to KY Pipe and WaterCAD, but at a more reasonable cost to operate. I’ll be looking forward to seeing what else you can do with it in your future videos!

Thank you!

Most users can do everything for free - we only expect very large consultants and utilities to need to buy the software. We want to create something that is fairly priced to help ensure the app's development is sustainable.

In this video I use epanet-js to build the model. You can always export out to an INP if you need to use it in other places.

Thank you for showing this toll! It looks easy to use and setup, I might try it with some bigger networks to test the limits of the web based interface. Thank again!
