Radiant conditioning has been used for more than 100 years in floor systems much as it is today. Over the past 25 to 30 years, advances in technology have seen radiant conditioning successfully introduced into ceiling systems. While conditioning from the ceiling continues to generate discussion and debate, this session will explore whether many of the perceived obstacles can be overcome or effectively managed.
This talk will explain and demonstrate the principles behind lightweight radiant ceiling conditioning systems, while addressing common questions and misconceptions. Can you heat from the ceiling? What happens if the system leaks? How is condensation managed? What if someone drills into the ceiling? How costly is the system, how long does it last, what is required for installation, and how energy efficient is it?
Join the discussion to learn how radiant ceiling conditioning works, where it can be applied, and why it is increasingly being considered as an innovative solution for contemporary building design.
