CUSTOM DESIGN AND QUALITY COMPONENTS
One of the many secrets to success is its design flexibility. In addition to custom configurations based on specific floor plan and site requirements, Infloor can be used with any type of heat source, including ground source heat pumps, solar collectors and gas, electric or oil boilers. Infloor also offers a variety of customized, packaged components to ensure quality installation and compatibility.

INSTALLING AIR CONDITIONING SYSTEMS IN INFLOOR-HEATED HOMES.

Warm air rises - cool air falls. These basic laws of thermodynamics demonstrate that air conditioning (cooling) and heating are in fact distinctly opposite processes. That's why attempting to combine hating and cooling systems into one process can compromise the efficincey of either or both systems.

Given these facts and the challenge of maximum efficiency, logical design dictates that heat should originate from the floor; cooling from the ceiling. A central air cooling system independent of the heating system can be designed and installed for the most eeffective and economical use.

As a more economical option, a blower used only for air condtiioning can be installed. With centrally located ducts routed through the attic to serve the rooms from the inside walls, installation costs less. This technique also eliminates unsightly ducts in the basement ceiling. Room air conitioners, the new ductless split systems and evaporative coolers are also a good alternative to central cooling.

 

HOW INFLOOR REDUCES HEATING COSTS

Conventional systems allow heat to collect where it's most likely to escape - at the ceiling and along outside walls. With the temperature throughout theroom remains nearly constant.

This factor alone reduces heat loss by up to 25 percent when compared to similar homes using conventinal heating methods.
