Natural cooling with chilled ceiling

Summer temperatures of more than 40 ° C in the shade - we all know at least since this summer. In the offices, the temperatures are higher and the concentrated work is difficult.


Air conditioning cooling and therefore promise higher performance, but air conditioners are noisy, consume vast amounts of energy and produce the active circulation of air drafts and thus increase the number of pollen in the air. Particularly for allergy sufferers, this is an additional burden and not much more pleasant than to sweat without air conditioning.

A new, copied from nature, technology promises a remedy: BEKA capillary tube. By thin, the capillaries of similar trees, pipes flowing water as the heat / coolant. This pipe system is constructed as a mesh and can be integrated into floors and walls as a heater. In itself, nothing really new - but can be accessed by this system cooling ceilings realize.

Instead of the tubes must be heated by flowing water, cold water is passed through the capillary tube. Thus, the air is cooled below the ceiling and drops down. By exploiting this physical law is the system without active air circulation and is therefore working silently.

This chilled ceilings are now being used in offices and public buildings and provide a more comfortable stay there. In areas where the draft or unwanted noise by using air conditioning are (clean rooms, intensive care units in hospitals) allows this technology to new opportunities in climate regulation.

Mechanical systems have, due to wear, high maintenance and usually work very noisily. This is where the added advantage of a cooling ceiling - once installed, they allow a virtually maintenance free operation. Overall, can determine that a climate of even large rooms prices, health advantage and unobtrusive is possible.
