Appendix
- Dialogues and additional information
  - Wastewater lifting unit
  - Design options (waste water)
    Drawing-specific settings relating to your calculation are set in the Design options dialogue.
  - Design options (heating)
    Drawing-specific settings relating to your calculation are set in the Design options dialogue.
  - Design options (drinking water)
    Drawing-specific settings relating to your calculation are set in the Design options dialogue.
  - Construction stages
    You can divide a drawing into construction stages so that you can later create a material extract according to construction stages.
  - Component properties
    In the Edit and Calculate work perspective, your selection in the drawing is highlighted in colour. Section properties and component properties can be displayed and edited differently from the global project settings.
  - Component filter
    The component filter allows you to quickly filter the selected components in the drawing.
  - Drainage areas
    The Drainage areas window in the Drainage section is divided into two tabs.
  - Find function
    CALHYDRA has a parameterised search function that supports you when searching for drawn sections and components in the drawing and when selecting products.
  - Hydraulics report
    With the preview of the calculation output, CALHYDRA supports you in customising the calculation output.
  - Mass extract
    With the preview of the mass statement, CALHYDRA supports you in customising the printout of the masses.
  - Material editor
    With the material editor, CALHYDRA supports you with convenient and fast determination of your dimensions.
  - Diaphragm expansion vessel
  - Options Wizard (waste water)
    The options wizard guides you through the settings for the design.
  - Options assistant (heating)
    The options wizard guides you through the settings for the design.
  - Options Wizard (drinking water)
    The options wizard guides you through the settings for the design.
    - Types of utilisation (Drinking water wizard options)
      It is necessary to select the utilisation types in order to determine the peak flow rate, taking into account the simultaneity of the water withdrawal.
    - Minimum supply pressure (Drinking water wizard options)
      The minimum supply pressure can be defined in the options wizard using two options.
    - Calculation flow rates (Drinking water wizard options)
      In the Calculation flow rates area, select whether the calculation flow rate from the reference values of DIN 1988-300 or from the stored manufacturer specifications is used for the design.
    - Pipe definitions (Drinking water wizard options)
      The selection of pipe definitions enables the quick assignment of different pipe sequences for each section type and the definition of the pre-wall system.
    - Ambient temperatures (DHW wizard options)
      The respective ambient temperatures are of particular importance when calculating the cold water temperatures after a stagnation phase and the discharge times for overheated cold water. For this reason, the ambient temperatures must be determined on a project-specific basis depending on the installation conditions before the calculation.
    - Summary (drinking water)
      The summary of the options wizard provides an overview of all previously made settings.
  - Project data
    The Project data dialogue contains project information for the current project, for example for the project cover sheet or to determine the rainfall donations.
  - Product sequence or product selection
    In the Product sequence or Product selection dialogue, select the product sequence or a product for components.
  - Project data
    The Project data dialogue contains project information for the current project, for example for the project cover sheet or to determine the rainfall donations.
  - Simulation
    The simulation is divided into a circulation simulation for hot and cold water and a simulation of a cold water hygiene system.
  - Section properties
    In the Edit and Calculate work perspective, your selection in the drawing is highlighted in colour. Section properties and component properties can be displayed and edited differently from the global project settings.
  - Insert drawing reference
    The Insert drawing reference function guides you through the settings for inserting a drawing reference.
  - Water softening system
