It is the user's responsibility to:
Unlike our standard calculators which clear data upon refresh, the Floorplan Creator tool utilizes your browser's "Local Storage" to save your work-in-progress automatically.

You can clear this data at any time by clearing your browser cache.
Any maps, zone plans, or floor layouts generated by this Site are to be used strictly as visual aids/diagrammatic representations. They are not to scale, do not constitute architectural drawings, and must not be used as a substitute for professional CAD designs or official "As-Fitted" drawings required for certification.
