Radiant Floor Heating For Commercial & Industrial Buildings
Engineers confidently are specifying radiant floor heating systems to resolve difficult heating challenges.
Radiant floor heating is getting a lot of attention these days, and growth of this market is profound. But those who specify systems for commercial and industrial buildings seem slow to recommend anything remotely new. Maybe they fear customers won't accept it or that it will cost more. Or maybe they just don't know of the benefits that radiant heating offers. Engineers who have specified the technology have been very successful. Radiant floor heating purists consider every concrete pour without radiant floor heating as another lost opportunity.
A number of commercial and industrial heating engineers are confidently specifying radiant floor heating systems to resolve their most difficult heating challenges. Difficult areas to heat often contain high ceilings, weather-exposed floors, floors with high back losses and large amounts of air infiltration. These conditions are commonly associated with atriums, buildings with parking garages and buildings with large entranceways. Floor heating systems can also help to dry floors that need frequent mopping, thus minimizing "slip and fall" cases. Floor heating systems are also virtually maintenance-free.
