Greg Cooper, Managing Director at climate control specialist, Radiana, believes when it comes to creating the ultimate balance of wellbeing and efficiency in a home, there is no better than to be inspired by nature. Radiana’s revolutionary ceiling system is designed to create the perfect indoor environment with a luxurious 3D indoor climate. Here, Greg explains more about the system and benefits for both homeowners and the environment.
Technology designed to imitate nature
Radiana’s innovative ceiling panels can be easily and quickly installed into the ceiling or walls in the place of plasterboard, making the system completely invisible. In the same way as traditional plasterboard is fitted, these innovative radiant cooling panels are quick and easy to attach directly to the ceiling frame.
Cold water passes through the pipes within each panel and, as heat always travels to colder areas, any heat radiated from objects and the rest of the room is absorbed. When 70% of the ceiling surface area is fitted with ‘active’ Radiana ceiling panels, there are no hot or cold spots within a room because radiation expands equally in all directions.
Achieve the ideal balance of luxurious style and substance
As Radiana panels cool and heat the environment from the ceiling, a highly desirable ‘3D cooling’ effect is created. This unique aspect supports the trend for creating open plan spaces, which may require different temperatures depending on how much sun reaches the space and personal preferences. For example, when paired with intelligent controls or smartphone app, a radiant system offers the opportunity to create a cooler environment in the kitchen area of an open plan room and warmer in the dining area.
Radiant water-based systems are also designed to effortlessly integrate with renewable technologies, including heat pumps which can be relied upon for both heating and cooling.
Incorporate wellbeing into the fabric your home
Due to the radiant energy transfer method, the Radiana system is silent running and allows you to cool or heat an environment and achieve optimum humidity levels, without the draughts or noise associated with traditional air conditioning. So, during the warm summer months, you will be able to sleep well every night in perfect comfort. Plus, Radiana also requires a lot less energy than air con, achieving up to 50% energy savings and less maintenance.
Radiana not only provides the ultimate thermal comfort for everyone to enjoy, wherever they are situated in the room, but also offers greatly improved air quality. Also, as the optimum humidity level is achieved, there is reduction in dust, allergens and the spread of viruses or germs, further increasing health and safety, particularly for anyone who suffers with allergies and asthma.
