What is Code Buddy for Mechanical?

Code Buddy helps mechanical contractors navigate IMC, IFGC, and ASME requirements for process piping, boiler installations, pressure vessels, and gas fuel systems — using AI chat, Vision AI reviews, and jurisdiction-aware code lookup for commercial and industrial projects.

Results are AI-generated and should be reviewed by a qualified professional.

The Mechanical Compliance Landscape

4+ codes

mechanical contractors typically cross-reference (IMC, IPC, IFGC, IECC)

ICC

5%

of total project cost is typically direct rework — much from failed inspections

CII

19%

of a knowledge worker's week spent searching for the right information

Frequently Asked Questions

How is mechanical different from HVAC on Code Buddy?

Mechanical covers the broader scope — process piping, boilers, pressure vessels, gas fuel systems, and industrial equipment installations under IMC, IFGC, and ASME. HVAC focuses on comfort systems, ductwork, refrigerant, and energy code requirements.

Can mechanical contractors review piping with Code Buddy?

Yes. The Vision AI camera evaluates piping installations for support spacing, insulation, clearances, and connections against applicable mechanical code requirements and ASME standards.

Does Code Buddy cover gas piping codes?

Yes. Code Buddy covers the International Fuel Gas Code (IFGC) and jurisdiction-specific amendments for gas pipe sizing, installation, testing, and appliance connections.
