R adiant ceiling heat provides all the same great benefits as radiant floor heat. Warm water circulates through PEX tubing installed in the ceiling. Radiant ceiling heat is a perfect option for remodeling projects or new construction. Like radiant floor, the ceiling radiates comfortable, uniform and cost-effective warmth. In lower levels, basements and garages, PEX tubing is tied to the reinforcing mesh before the slab is poured.
Radiant floor is very easy and cost effective to install in concrete.
Lightweight Concrete, Suspended Floors PEX tubing is installed over suspended wood floors and covered with lightweight concrete. Heat Transfer Plates, Suspended Floors PEX tubing is placed over the suspended wood floor. The tubing rests in heat transfer plates that radiate heat uniformly from the system into the floor above. This method is an alternative to lightweight concrete and is excellent for remodeling projects or additions to your home. Ceilings PEX tubing and heat emission plates are attached to the ceiling joists or sheetrock.
