Heating that recovers energy passively

The radiant ceiling: a heating system unlike the others

Have you ever wondered how to make a home more comfortable while using less energy?

Here is a passive heating system, unlike anything else on the market.

Because of where it sits, a radiant ceiling is the only heating system able to recover the heat held in the air, which is uncomfortable in itself, and turn it into infrared radiation, which is not.

Borrowed from the way an igloo

is built

To get there we took our cue from the way an igloo is built.An igloo is made of snow, and snow is full of air bubbles

.

Inside, the surface of the snow turns to ice, which stops the air escaping.The albedo effect of snow, being white, sends infrared heat back

towards the occupants, keeping the warmth their own bodies give off.R'BULL reflective insulation

: the same ideaIn our system, R'BULL reflective insulation behaves like the iced surface of that snow

.

Filled with thousands of sealed air bubbles, its two aluminium faces send infrared light back.R'BULL is fitted above the ceiling with a return up the wall

.Paired with heating films that supply the active heating when it is needed, this arrangement traps the heat the ceiling recovers and gives it back

to the rooms below, which is where both the comfort and the saving come from.Comfort that holds, and a lower energy

billChoose a radiant ceiling with passive energy recovery

for even comfort and a genuine reduction in what you spend on heating.Contact us
