If you are considering the best solution for ceiling cooling and heating, you need to consider a number of issues related to the type of construction site, the benefits of turnkey installation, and the unparalleled level of comfort that ceiling cooling and heating will provide to your home.
Are you facing a redevelopment already with the idea of implementing a false ceiling, which will perhaps contain only lighting? In this case, we recommend that you consider integrating the radiant system. In this way, you could implement ceiling heating and cooling at a modest additional expense and get a single system for summer/winter air conditioning, freeing up the space occupied by radiators.
The turnkey price of radiant ceiling should be evaluated as a whole, let's briefly see what is included and what is excluded.
The turnkey radiant ceiling price includes:
● plasterboard sheets already equipped with piping, insulation and manifolds
● labor for installation and commissioning
● finishing of the ceiling (plastering and painting).
Installation by certified installers is of great value. In addition, on the consumption front, it must be considered that the operating temperatures of ceiling cooling are higher (about 16°C) than traditional all-air or fan coil systems (7°C). So those who choose the radiant ceiling can count on a lighter bill, thanks in part to smart management with SmartComfort 365 control unit.
All those who have already installed it agree that the radiant ceiling guarantees a climate of such quality that they will be surprised, clearly superior to any other solution on the market today.
Finally, we remind you that the turnkey price does NOT include:
● lighting solutions
● special work such as vaults, sails, veils or other decorative architectural solutions, which will be billed in the balance at the end of the work
● air treatment (dehumidification).
Let us open a parenthesis on this last point. In summer it often happens that the specific humidity exceeds the limit value for the risk of condensation (12 gv /kgas according to UNI EN 15251). Therefore, to use the radiant ceiling in cooling mode, it is essential to install a dehumidification machine, otherwise the system would be forced to shut down whenever the risk of condensation arises.
Dehumidification systems can be of two types: without air renewal or with air renewal. Since attention to air quality is fully among the aspects that improve indoor healthiness, it is useful to know that systems with air renewal can filter pollutants thanks to ISO Coarse 60% filters and eliminate germs, viruses and mold thanks to the sanitizing effectiveness of UV LED lamps.
