What is the CFM and operating temperature on air heated radiant floors?
Hello,
Reading your article on air heated radiant floors and have a few questions:
What is the cfm on such a system (per loop or run)? What temp is run through the system? Are there any other providers of such systems than Legallett in the USA?
Thank you for your help,
Marty
Legalett supplies air heated radiant floors with electric or water coils. The air flow would be between 450-650CFM for each heater (750-1100m3/hr), the large heater is 8 loops by standard, so divide the CFM by 8 to get the per loop CFM And the temperature would be between 45C and 65C out of the coil for both electric and water. There are no other providers of air heated floors that we know of, but Legalett does supply across the United States, where in the US are you building?
Thank you for the information. I live in central Wisconsin, near Wausau, WI.
I am looking at building a house approx. 1200 square feet with 14 ft high walls. How many BTUs are ub Legalett's smaller system and in the 8 loop system you referenced?
Hi Martin, I wouldn't have many more answers for you, so I think the best way to get answers and even pricing for a system is to contact they company, here is the find a Legalett sales rep page, there seems to be on in Wisconsin that can probably set you up.
Mike,
Thank you for your help. I look forward to reading more on your site.
