Chilled beams can be passive or active (with fresh air also supplied) and use chilled water as the source of cooling. Because the flow temperature is at 14 to 17°C, cooling efficiency is higher than with fan-coil units requiring lower a lower flow temperature. These higher flow temperatures also enable free cooling and ground sourcing to be exploited.
These modules are offered in a wide range of profiles to meet all budgets and are applicable to most new or refurbished buildings. A bespoke design service is available.
A range of acoustic treatments can be specified to absorb ambient sound and sound reflected from the soffit.
Their small space requirement provide a helpful solution for refurbishing 1960s buildings, with the exposed soffit increasing the perception of floor-to-ceiling height.
