Issue:
The Heating and Cooling Calculation feature is no longer available in Revit 2022, 2023, 2024, and 2025.

Causes:
Autodesk has removed the Heating and Cooling Calculation Insight tool from Revit starting with the 2022 version and onward to promote the use of the Systems Analysis tool.

While the feature has been removed, it is still accessible by enabling the Heating and Cooling Calculation tool through a modification in the Revit.ini file.

    • EnableHeatingAndCoolingLoads=1
    • EnableWeatherInLocation=1
  4. Save the Revit.ini file and close notepad.
  5. Open Revit.
  6. The Heating and Cooling Loads button should now be available again.
