Looking
for the perfect solution for hydronic underfloor heating for tile and stone?
Schlüter-Systems’ quick reacting and energy-efficient modular system keeps
build-up low and helps you to achieve a lasting finish.
Hydronic
(or ‘wet’) systems are ideal for large scale coverage and ‘whole-house’
scenarios. Designed to heat the air within a room as well as the surface
covering, they are a primary heat source and can therefore replace radiators,
connecting directly to a boiler.
Although
installation is more expensive than with an electric system, running costs are
cheaper. Hydronic systems can be powered by a number of different fuel sources,
including ground source heat pumps, and as well as warming a space can also be
used for gentle passive cooling during the summer months.
Schlüter®-BEKOTEC-THERM is the patented hydronic
underfloor heating solution with an ultra-low construction height.
A
screed height of just 8mm above the studs of the panels is all that is
required, which results in quicker warm-up times as well as considerable
material and weight savings in comparison to other wet systems. A building can
also be put into use more rapidly as there is no need to wait weeks for the
screed to cure before tiles are installed.
BEKOTEC-THERM
can be configured to work with Building Management Systems (BMS) and a number
of variants suitable for retrofitting are available. Schlüter-Systems can also
provide a full design service for all BEKOTEC-THERM installations, with our
experts ensuring that the system is used to its full potential.
In addition to ceramic tiles and
natural stone coverings, other coverings such as parquet, laminates or carpet
can be installed in conjunction with the BEKOTEC-THERM system.
