If you want radiant heat and air conditioning, we recommend installing a distribution system for air conditioning within the ceiling and radiant heat tubing within the floor. Combining a forced hot air heating system and an air conditioning system utilizing floor registers is a less comfortable, dustier, and more expensive alternative than using two separate systems.

Due to its physical layout and weather conditions, uniform heating and cooling of the Library is sometimes impossible. Please report extremes to the Library staff so that we may contact Campus Maintenance if there is truly a problem. The Library staff is unable to individually adjust the thermostat.

Many factors affect the cost of a heating or air conditioning system, including the size of your home, the type and condition of the ductwork installed, and accessories you might need such as a thermostat or an electronic air cleaner. We have a complete range of systems and accessories available to meet all your needs, including your financial ones! Your local dealer will be happy to assist you in finding the right system to meet not only your comfort needs but also your household budget.

Air conditioning and heating is available in the villa. For those very warm Florida days and nights the air conditioning is supplemented with ceiling fans.

Yes, and each unit have its own thermostat so the resident can adjust the temperature to whatever is comfortable for them.

Yes, all of our homes have central air conditioning and heat as well as ceiling fans to help circulate the air.

There is air conditioning at all hotels except for the high elevation hotels at Creel and Barrancas. All hotels have heat except for the hotel at El Fuerte. Even so, you might want to take along warmer clothing for the winter tours. Back to Top

Tikal Futura Guatemala City, Posada Real Copan, and Villa Maya Petenchel all have air conditioning. The Villa Colonial and the Villa Santa Catarina do not, but are located at a higher elevation where the climate is more temperate. None of the hotels have heating in the winter months. Back to Top

Central heat and air conditioning is a comfort control system that controls the temperature in many areas of your home from one central location.

The ambient temperature at Pura Vida is about ideal. We get the warmth of the tropics combined with the mountain freshness of being at almost 5,000 ft. elevation. Thus, none of our rooms or facilities has air conditioning or heating. The year round temperature is 70 to 80 degrees during the day with mild nights.

Sure you can. In fact, separate heating and cooling systems really make the most sense. Radiant floor heating keeps the heat near the floor where it does the most good; and air conditioning ductwork is placed only where it is needed to cool your home. The result is optimal comfort and efficiency all year 'round.

Yes. There are different manufacturers and different methods, but it has become more and more common this past decade.

Instead of adding more insulation, you should consider adding a radiant barrier system. This will have a greater effect on your cooling bills because it reflects heat away from the attic before it can reach the insulation and ceiling below. Without a radiant barrier, your roof radiates solar-generated heat to the insulation and, if they are mounted in the attic, your air conditioning ducts below it.

RenewAire systems work very well with air-conditioning - much better than sensible-only heat exchangers. As in the winter, if you keep your house closed up tight, (as you should when air-conditioning), indoor air quality will suffer. The only real difference is that air-conditioning systems do have some moisture-removal capability, unlike heating systems. Exactly how much water the air-conditioner will remove depends on how it is set up.

Both air conditioning and industrial refrigeration are based on the same mechanism: the cooling of a substance. The refrigerating system made up of a compressor, evaporator, fan, condenser and expansion device, is the heart of both systems. Despite this, there are substantial differences between the systems, the components used, the design methods and the structures they are used in, such as to merit separate treatment.

Requests can be made by telephone, e-mail, or fax (578-5597). Provide the following information: Name, phone number, building and room/s, date and times the a/c needs to be on. A three day notification is required to ensure requests are properly scheduled.

Send a letter to Facility Services-Energy Services requesting the change. Please include the building and room numbers requiring the change, the requested hours, the reason why the change is requested, and the name of a contact person to discuss the change.

Low-voltage radiant heat is safe, reliable, efficient and long-lasting solution to your floor warming, space heating and snow melting needs. High-voltage systems, on the other hand, have much shorter warranties (5-7 year average) and typically don't last as long. The high-voltage current wears out the carbon based heating element. The durable bronze ZMesh has an industry leading 25 year warranty and the low-voltage current has almost no detrimental effect on it.

The original Air Probe Sanitizer is made of extruded aluminum and all stainless steel connectors. It can be manufactured to fit any size air conditioner. There is no HVAC system which cannot use the original Air Probe Sanitizer. (top)

With radiant heat, the temperatures the floor temperatures tend to be stable and low. These are favorable conditions for wide pine floors. It is best to use material that has low humidity from the beginning. Probably not, if the building will be energy efficient. While heat will tend to rise, you are asking one floor to do the work of two and you may want to over design the first floor.

This is a concrete question more than a radiant heating question. All concrete applications must be structurally satisfactory. There is no important difference between concrete mixes from the heating standpoint.

Radiant heat is transmitted from a heat source via rays just like rays of sunlight. These rays pass through the air without heating it since only solid objects can absorb the heat they transmit. Dark colours absorb more radiant heat than lighter colours which reflect more of it. This is why light coloured clothing is cooler than dark coloured clothing. All our Napoleon Fireplaces are designed to generate radiant heat into your living room.
