"Blown-in insulation" is one of the many options available for the insulation of structures, and suspended ceilings in particular. It is therefore quite natural that one of the heating installation firms that cooperate with us recently enquired as to whether this type of insulation can be used in ceilings with ECOFILM C heating foils.
We have recently received a complaint about unpleasant sounds emitted by ceiling heating using ECOFILM foil. The search for the cause led to a modification of the ECOFILM C foil mounting rules, which now prescribe the hanging of plasterboard ceilings on spring hangers.
FENIX would like to inform you about very interesting new report realized by renowned institute UCEEB / ČVUT - Czech Technical University in Prague. Surprising positive summary: Electric underfloor heating: Proportion of the radiant heat flux to electric input: cca 77 % (more info on page 8). Electric ceiling radiant heating: Proportion of the radiant heat flux to electric input: cca 84 % (more on page 10).
Heating foils are a modern, very efficient and economical form of heating, suitable particularly for the heating of LEH (low-energy houses). However, unbranded products are appearing on the market offered by unspecialized retailers for applications which are prohibited by valid standards.
ECOFILM C ceiling foils are intended for use in plasterboard structures as ceiling-mounted radiant heating.
It has been generally accepted for several years that we as a country cannot continue for the purpose of heating our homes, to use energy at our current rate of consumption whether this be gas, oil or electricity.
