Heating/cooling is embedded into ceilings and walls
Published: September 2008
Aquatherm’s Climasystem lightweight polypropylene radiator grid system is designed to be built into ceilings or walls to heat or cool the surface of the wall or ceiling to a few degrees above or below ambient. These grids can be installed in new-build or retrofitted. Extensive prefabrication at manufacturing stage speeds installation and reduces time on site. For new-build applications, the construction thickness, including manifolds, mounting rails and connections, is only 25.4 mm. Climasystem grids can be installed in plastered walls and dry-lined partitions. Radiant grids are simply fixed behind the gypsum board in stud-framed walls. For use in suspended ceilings, the grids are available in 600 mm-square tile-sized modules, suiting them to retrofit. They weigh only 2.5 kg/m2, including water filling, so they are unlikely to require additional strengthening of the existing ceiling structure.
