Hydronic Radiant Ceiling Heating Panels

Radiant ceiling panels aero tech also manufactures and installs its own line of radiant ceiling panel products for the construction and hvac industry.

Hydronic radiant ceiling heating panels.

Radiant ceilings circulate hot or cold water through concealed copper tubing on the back of the panels providing sustainable heating and cooling with minimal air ventilation requirements. Radiant ceiling panel systems can be used during a building retrofit process while earning points toward leed certification radiant ceiling panels offer temperature gradients so low between ceiling and floor that there is less than one degree of difference. The amount of energy to distribute the same amount of heating in forced air systems is typically 10 times greater than that needed for pumps in a hydronic radiant system. In fact hydronic radiant ceilings like these made by italian manufacturer messana make a lot of sense perhaps more sense than radiant floors and certainly more than forced air.

The heated ceiling panels are heated in one of three ways. The pump energy required in hydronic systems is much less than that required for fans in forced air systems. Radiant heating panel systems function based on providing a comfortable environment by controlling surface temperatures and minimizing excessive air motion within the space. The systems depend largely on radiant heat transfer the delivery of heat directly from the hot surface to the people and objects in the room via infrared radiation.

Radiant heating systems supply heat directly to the floor or to panels in the wall or ceiling of a house.
