Frequently asked questions about the Geberit BIM Plug-in
What can I use the Geberit BIM Plug-in for?
The Geberit BIM Plug-in in your Autodesk Revit application gives you access to all Revit product ranges from Geberit.
This ensures that you can always download up-to-date country and language-specific BIM objects without having to laboriously search for them on websites or portals. In addition to the BIM catalogue, the Geberit BIM Plug-in also provides other useful functions and planning modules.
Is there a charge for using the Geberit BIM Plug-in or do I need a licence?
Use of the Catalogue module and the Wizard module is licence-free and free of charge.
A licence is required for the Geberit Pluvia module and the Installation Systems module. If you would like to use these modules, please contact us.
Where can I download the Geberit BIM Plug-in?
The Geberit BIM Plug-in can be downloaded directly from this website or in the Autodesk Revit store and then integrated into Autodesk Revit.
Which Microsoft Windows versions and which Autodesk Revit versions is the Geberit BIM Plug-in compatible with?
The Geberit BIM Plug-in has the same minimum requirements regarding the Windows operating system as your Revit application.
How do I install the Geberit Plug-in?
Download the installation file from this website and run the installation file (*.msi). The Geberit BIM Plug-in is then installed in the correct program folder.
When you restart your Revit application, the Geberit BIM Plug-in will be displayed on the “Additional modules” tab and can be launched.
When new releases are available, the user is informed accordingly in Autodesk Revit when using the Geberit BIM Plug-in and can activate them with one click.
Can I use BIM content of Geberit products outside of the Geberit BIM Plug-in?
Yes. The BIM content of the individual products is stored in the data packages in the Geberit online catalogue too. Additionally, the content is available in the planning software of the following providers:
- Linear
- Trimble Nova
- Solar-Computer
- Dendrit
- Bausoft
Why do I have to adjust the country setting at the start of a project?
The Geberit product range is not the same in every market. Use the country setting to select the product range that corresponds to the country or region of your project.
This will prevent you from planning Geberit products into your projectthat are not available in the country or region.
Based on your selection, the local Geberit catalogue and the corresponding BIM objects will be displayed in the respective national language. In multilingual markets, such as Switzerland, you can choose from more than one national language.
We strongly recommend against changing the country settings within the same project. This can lead to functional impairments of the Geberit BIM Plug-in.
Why does a warning message appear after the Geberit Pluvia calculation?
This is a warning message for the angle tolerance. If bends in Autodesk Revit have deviations of less or greater than 0.1° (e.g. 89.99°), a Geberit Pluvia calculation is still possible. However, a warning is displayed informing the user of the discrepancy.
