radiant ceiling heating / cooling panels

Radiant ceiling heating and cooling panels are compact heat-exchange elements mounted directly in the suspended ceiling. Inside the panel there is a built-in pipe circuit through which hot or cold water flows, transferring/removing heat by radiation over a large ceiling area. The range includes steel panels (passive, with a smooth or perforated surface) and plasterboard panels (active, with an integrated register) in various sizes from 600×600 mm up to 2000×1200 mm.

Compared to underfloor heating, ceiling panels have a significantly faster response to temperature changes and in summer enable efficient radiant space cooling without the draught caused by classic air conditioning. They are connected via PRESS fittings and PEX/PE-RT pipe with a thermal insulation jacket.

Suitable for office, commercial and residential spaces with a suspended ceiling that require a combination of heating and cooling with minimal impact on the room layout.

Frequently Asked Questions

• What is the difference between a passive and an active panel? An active panel has its own built-in register connected directly to the distribution system, a passive panel serves as an additional radiant element without its own connection or with a simpler register.
• Can the panels also be used for cooling? Yes, the same panels work bidirectionally - in summer cooled water flows through them and the panel removes heat from the room by radiation; the operating temperature must be kept above the dew point.
• How is the panel connected to the distribution system? Via PRESS fittings and PEX or PE-RT pipe with thermal insulation; the connection is demountable and requires no welding or soldering.
• What is the load capacity of the suspended ceiling structure for the panels? The panels are suspended in a standard suspended ceiling support grid, the weight depends on the material and size - steel panels are lighter, plasterboard ones heavier; the exact weight can be found in the product parameters.
