The Advantages of TermoDeck®
Peak Power Reduction
- 45-50% reduction in installed electrical power and cooling capacity
- During 4-5 hours over the midday period, the reduction can be as high as 70-90%
Reduced Capital Costs
- Significant reduction in fans, chillers and ducts (in hot climates 40-50%)
- Elimination of water radiators
- No need for suspended ceilings
- Because there is no ceiling void, the storey heights may be reduced by 15-25% per floor
Reduced Energy Consumption
- TermoDeck projects in Europe have up to 20% lower energy consumption for heating & cooling
- TermoDeck projects in Middle East and Southern Africa have 15-30% lower energy consumption for cooling than equally sized conventional buildings
Low Environmental Impact
- Reduced CO2 emissions due to a lower energy consumption
Occupant Satisfaction
- Comfortable and stable indoor temperatures all year round
- Very quiet operation since the slabs act as silencers against noise from fans and dampers
- No draughts, since the supply air entering the room will never be less than 19°C
Design Flexibility
- Room planning flexibility due to possible slab spans up to 20 metres
- Simple and inexpensive to make interior alterations due to no false ceilings and ductwork in the rooms
