About CC5 files

Most often, a .CC5 file is a project created by Climate Consultant (specifically version 5.x), a widely used tool for sustainable architecture and energy-efficient building design. These files store your site analysis settings, psychrometric chart configurations, and specific visualization parameters for interpreting raw weather data (usually from an .EPW file). They do not contain the raw weather data itself, but rather the rules for how that data is displayed.

A common problem is that .CC5 files are proprietary binary or structured text files that cannot be opened by standard tools like Microsoft Excel or image viewers. If you receive one from an architect or student, you typically cannot view the wind wheels or sun charts without installing the specific Java-based Climate Consultant software.

Alternatively, a .CC5 file may be a legacy calendar archive from Broderbund Calendar Creator. These older files are essentially locked boxes; modern operating systems often cannot run the original software required to print or view them.

Best Conversion Targets:

For Reports & Presentations: Convert to PDF or PNG to visualize the charts without needing the original software.
For Data Analysis: Convert to CSV (if supported) to extract the underlying temperature and humidity metrics for use in spreadsheet software.
For Archiving: Convert Calendar Creator files to PDF to preserve the layout and event data before the software becomes completely obsolete.

Convert.Guru analyzes your CC5 file, detects the exact format, and lets you read the text inside.

Users also converted CE3, WNS and BDM files.
