Dreaming of a floor that stays warm all winter? The answer may well be above your head rather than beneath your feet.
Olivier walks through a heated ceiling project finished in plasterboard, on a framework built for the purpose.
A bathroom is rarely the size of a catalogue, which is the whole argument for building the mirror to the wall.
A simple way of fixing electrical cables to a ceiling quickly, without going through the insulation layer.
The metal faces of a reflective insulation attenuate electric fields, provided they are bonded to earth.
How to insulate and heat through the ceiling when the height available leaves very little room to work with.
How to fit R'BULL reflective thin insulation, particularly where the ceiling void leaves you very little room to work with.
When form follows function A conventional speaker hides its drivers behind a grille and turns its cabinet into a decorative object. Here, the part producing the sound is the part you see, and [...]
What an evening asks of a source To cover a space where people move about, gather at random and talk at the same time as the music. None of those three conditions is found in seated listening, [...]
What to check before ordering a heating film for a radiant ceiling, and why each of these points decides how long the installation lasts.
When does the sun light and warm us best? The answer says a good deal about how a radiant ceiling behaves.
A pale surface sends back what a dark one absorbs, and a ceiling is the largest pale surface in the room.
What separates radiated warmth from blown hot air, seen from the point of view of the body rather than the thermostat.
Olivier compares your ceiling to the sky, and explains why only a ceiling can give an even temperature.
The problem is not power In almost every poorly covered space, the equipment delivers enough power. What is missing is the distribution: too loud near the source, too weak at the back, and [...]
What an innovation competition assesses The novelty of a principle, the coherence of a project and its ability to find a market. Those are three different criteria, and an entry can be excellent [...]
When the ceiling cannot be used, a wall can carry the heating instead. How that is built, and what it changes.
A textile complex backed with aluminium: noise cut and heat returned within the same ten millimetres.
Twenty millimetres instead of ten centimetres of stud wall, for the rooms where there is no space to give away.
A mirror, a picture, a splashback, a wooden panel: any of them can heat, without looking any different.
Can you keep the mirror you have and add heating to it? The short answer, shown rather than explained.
Olivier explains the indicators that describe how an insulation product performs beyond the familiar R value.
The characteristics of R'BULL Pro 13 reviewed one by one: thickness, weight, fire behaviour, handling.
Where echo comes from in a large volume From a direct sound followed by delayed reflections off distant surfaces. The larger the volume, the longer the delay, and beyond a certain threshold the [...]
In this video, Olivier sets out the opportunity of building a business around cooling stretch ceilings.
Ceilingo presents the video of its Magic Speaker, an omnidirectional speaker built around a vibrating wooden blade.
How the overlaps, the edges and the service penetrations are treated so the airtightness actually holds.
How to cool a home or a commercial space effectively, including where several floors have to hold the same temperature.
Which form of heating costs least to run, and how to bring a heating bill down when it has become a serious expense.
The question everyone asks first. It is less counter-intuitive than it sounds, once air and heat are separated.
How a 100% radiant heated stretch ceiling is built, using the same mechanism that makes an igloo habitable.
Nature is the model here. Clouds and the sun point to a way of heating that is remarkably efficient.
Is it worth asking for the thermal resistance of a thin insulation product? The answer is less obvious than it looks.
Why airtightness matters in an insulation layer, and how to achieve it. The body is the model: we ventilate through the nose, not the skin.
Emissivity and thermal resistance describe different phenomena. Which one matters depends on the product in front of you.
Composition, behaviour under heat, mechanical strength and installation: what defines a reflective thin insulation.
Thick and thin insulation do not work on the same phenomenon, which is why a single figure cannot separate them.
How connected thermostats changed the way heating is managed, and what that is worth in comfort and in running costs.
What a demonstration video can prove The context, the placement, the size of the space and the way people behave around the source. That information is real and travels perfectly through the [...]
A summer cloud changes how hot you feel without changing the air temperature. A reflective product does the same.
Pair the Black Edition wifi and 4G thermostat to your phone, then set the temperature in each room correctly.
A panel that comes away from the ceiling months later means doing the job twice. The adhesive put to the test.
