Installing Updates

These instructions are for customers who are already running Design Master Plumbing and need to install an update.

Upgrading to Plumbing 2.1

Download and run the Design Master Plumbing install file.

Install it to the location to which you previously installed Design Master Plumbing.

Do not check the box that says "Load menus in AutoCAD" because the menus are already installed from the previous version of Design Master Plumbing.

If you have a local installation, it is necessary for AutoCAD to be closed during the update.

If you have a network installation, you can install the update while AutoCAD is open.

If an error occurs during the installation process saying that a file cannot be overwritten, it is most likely the result of a copy of AutoCAD that is still loaded. Once AutoCAD has been closed, you can continue the installation.

None of your existing customization will be overwritten during the installation process.

If you do not have administrative privileges on your computer, you can download and run the No-Admin Design Master Plumbing install file instead. This file should only be used if the regular install file does not work.

Design Master HVAC and Design Master Electrical

If you are running Design Master HVAC or Design Master Electrical, you will need to install updates to those programs at the same time as you install the update to Design Master Plumbing .
