In cooling mode, capillary mats will generally be installed in ceilings or walls.

Ceiling radiant heating

Ceiling radiant heating

Heated radiant ceilings are the most efficient and effective heating solution, because the thermal agent is water, the capillaries work with very low water content (0.3 litres/sqm), the efficiency of the radiant heating system is 4 times higher than the efficiency of air heating systems. Significant energy and space savings can be achieved.

In the construction of heated radiant ceilings, the emphasis is on simplifying the solution in terms of execution. In general, there are two types of applications, -heated ceilings, which operate on a monolithic reinforced concrete structure, respectively -heated ceilings, made with the installation of capillary mats on plasterboard slabs.

In the first case, thermal insulation between the capillary mats and the surface of the reinforced concrete slab is recommended to increase the energy efficiency of the heating. In the case of the second plasterboard clad ceilings, if a reinforced concrete slab is covered with a plasterboard slab, the use of metal fixing systems for the plasterboard slabs is indicated, thus creating a gap between the lower surface of the reinforced concrete slab of the ceiling and the plasterboard slab.
