FORB

MODERN GEOTHERMAL LOOP SIZING

Precision design tools built to help your business scale.

The industry is full of legacy spreadsheets and clunky clones. We aren't building FORB to simply blend in; we are building the modern standard for geothermal loop sizing and modeling—an objective foundation for a sector ready to scale. From global OEMs and MEP firms to national builders, we provide the rigor required to turn design goals into successful, verifiable outcomes.

WHAT IT IS

Geothermal Design Software, Built to Scale an Industry.

FORB is a modern platform for the geothermal industry. We replace fragile spreadsheets and legacy stand alone install software with a reliable design system that bridges the gap between engineering models and the way projects are actually installed.

LOOP SIZING FOR PROFESSIONALS

THE RELIABILITY OF GROWTH

Uncompromising Engineering Rigor

One bad installation doesn't just hurt a homeowner; it can stall an entire regional rollout. When you are scaling at the enterprise level, your reputation depends on the reliability of your engineering data.

FORB is engineered to eliminate the uncertainty in your projections. By integrating site-specific geology and real utility rate schedules, we provide the ground truth required to turn ambitious geothermal designs into permanent, high-performing assets. We aren't guessing at physics; we're modeling for success.

Engineering rooted in ground truth.
ADVISORY GUARDRAILS

The Objective Safety Net

Complexity shouldn't hide risk. FORB aligns with CSA/ANSI/IGSHPA C448:25 to provide advisory checks that act as a technical safety net. We inform you when a design deviates from established paths, giving you the confidence to know when to push forward and when to adjust.

THE CONTINUUM

One syllable that leaves space for meaning. FORB is the intersection of engineering rigor and market success for those ready to rethink geothermal HVAC.


01. Reliability

Standardize Your Network

Improve predictability and protect your brand by ensuring every installation in your network is backed by a verified engineering model. FORB is engineered as a multi-tenant, white-label infrastructure—allowing OEMs and national builders to automate the engineering standard and eliminate the technical friction that leads to project failure.


02. Design

Automate the Engineering Flow

Focus on the data that matters most while our automation handles the complex bin-hour math and IGSHPA compliance checks. We provide the refined engineering required for residential and light commercial projects, eliminating the manual friction of legacy tools and spreadsheets.


03. Velocity

Drive Down Installed Costs

Eliminate the over-sizing and guesswork that adds unnecessary expense to geothermal projects. From individual homes to regional rollouts, FORB provides the predictable, verifiable outcomes required to right-size your loop designs.

THE CONNECTIVE HUB

We aren't just building a standalone calculator; we're building the connective hub for your geothermal workflow. Built to be accessible to any level of organization—from global OEMs to local installers—FORB provides the professional-grade tools required to turn engineering ground truth into business success. Whether you need a fully white-labeled design interface or an API-first calculation engine to power your existing internal platforms, our technology is designed to scale with you.

Solid grounds. Proven outcomes. Integrates with your workflow.
