Hanging-up of paintings in conjunction with wall heating

We would like to install a wall heating in our low energy house. How can I drive a nail into the wall without damaging a pipe?

That’s very easy. You only have to hold our thermo foil on the wall and then you see the position of the pipes. That’s a simple and secure method.

Old wooden house

I would like to renovate an old wooden house from the 18th century. What kind of heating system do you recommend?

In this case we recommend the installation of a panel heating. Radiators disturb

the historical atmosphere. Our wall heating system ThermoArmier would be a good choice because its installation fits very good on wooden walls.Öffnet einen internen Link im aktuellen Fenstermore

If you want to renovate the building with a dry floor method we recommend gypsum boards in which the heating pipes are already integrated.Öffnet einen internen Link im aktuellen Fenstermehr

Underfloor heating in an old building

Our old building needs a new heating system. Is it possible to install an underfloor heating afterwards?

Of course, you can install an underfloor heating in an old building. You only have to consider two aspects. Firstly, the height of the floor construction, especially in neap rooms. And secondly, the weight bearing capacity of the ceiling. The MH Dry Floor System represents a secure system. With an construction height of 55 mm.

Combined heating systems

I reconstruct an attic and have the intention to institute a physiotherapy surgery . Can I install a underfloor heating in this rooms although there are radiators in the rest of the house?

For an underfloor heating an essentially lower flow temperature is necessary than in conjunction with the operation of radiators. You can connect up to eight heating circuits or 100 m² underfloor heating to the existent heating system with the aid of our compact regulation station. An integrated valve regulates the temperature of the underfloor heating.

Wellness and Sauna

I’m planning a small wellness area with whirlpool and finish sauna in my cellar, but I don’t want to install radiators. Instead of radiators I prefer an hot air heating?

Especially in the domain of wellness I would not recommend an hot air heating, because the felt temperature depends not only on the atmospheric temperature. Above all the radiant heat of heated surfaces influences on the well-being. For this reason we recommend an underfloor or wall heating. You need less energy for the same felt temperature. In addition, there aren’t disturbing air escapes in the wellness area

High and open rooms

In our new house we plan a living-room as an open room until the roof. How con I avoid that the entire warm air ascends and that the room is difficult to be heated?

The ascending of warm air is a physical principle and cannot be avoided. An underfloor heating doesn’t primarily warm the air but with the aid of the radiator heat the objects in the room. Because of that the room can be heated without big energy losses

Regulation of the temperature

We have an underfloor heating in our rented flat. Unfortunately the heat output can only be regulated at the controller with the aid of a manual valve. Is it possible to regulate the underfloor heating independently from the ambient temperature?

A temperature regulation for every room is even prescribed in the bye-law of heating systems. It is necessary to put a thermostat which regulates the heating output in every room. In order to avoid inconvenient steps we recommend the Gomacal-radio control led system. You can situate the thermostat freely in the room. The receptor which is immediately on the controller provides the required heat output

Cooling of warm rooms

We have an electric shop. Our sales room heats up very fast because of the large glass surface and the big number of electric apparatus. What are the possibilities of air-conditioning?

Conventional air conditioner often have a bad reputation. The cold draught makes ill and the operating is loud and expensive. An healthy alternative is the ceiling cooling system with ThermoPanel components. There are cooling pipes in 18 mm gypsum boards. These components are available in six different sizes and can be installed for example as suspended ceiling. As cooling liquid you can use cheap ground water. The cooling ceiling cools the room softly, noiseless and without cold draught
