You can’t stand oppressive heat and strong blowing of loud air conditioners anymore? Then healthy passive cooling with surface cooling in your four walls is just right for you. It is impossible to imagine many living and working spaces without the surface cooling and allow a pleasant temperature control even on warm summer days.
How and why you can do without cold air blowers and unhealthy circulation, and what benefits they also have on your health, we’ll show you here in our big overview.
The most important summarized
- The phenomenon of cold radiation provides a healthy, pleasant and passive cooling, thanks to cooled surfaces.
- Cool surfaces remove excess heat from the body, which results in a cooling effect without cooling down the air.
- Surface cooling can also be retrofitted.
Surface cooling by egger surface tempering
Unlike classic air conditioning or heating systems, the egger system is a surface temperature control system. This means that both walls, floors and ceilings can be equipped and cooled with the system.
The cooled surfaces extract heat from people, making the environment comfortable. Noisy air conditioners that create dry and uncomfortable air circulation are now a thing of the past.
Surface temperature control is a healthy and energy-saving way to cool premises in the long term. Fit the conditions, the cold can even be drawn from the underground, which makes the system extremely environmentally friendly and even work “free of charge”.
Passive cooling
Particularly environmentally friendly is the cooling of the areas, through the natural extraction of cold from the ground by means of the cooling function of a groundwater or geothermal heat pump. The water cooled down by the floor is pumped through the egger system into the living area, where it cools down the walls, floor or ceiling to a comfortable temperature.
The free principle works simply: while in the summer it is unbearably hot in the living or working rooms, in the basement and in the ground there is a pleasant coolness. This coolness can be used by the egger system.
egger registers are installed under the house in the ground, deep enough in the garden or in the coolest rooms of a house. The water in the pipes takes on the cool temperatures and is transported upward within the egger circuit to the living area.
Healthy air
The egger system works with radiation emitted from warm or cool surfaces to the objects in the room. Due to the uniform coolness of the surfaces, a strong air circulation is prevented. This gives the room a pleasant indoor climate without creating a “hot-cold-cold” effect.
Another advantage is the absence of a fan, which, according to experts, causes respiratory diseases and dries mucous membranes. This type of cooling also benefits allergy sufferers and asthmatics in particular, who can now breathe easy again.
Install passive surface cooling
The simple connection to all common heat pumps and systems makes surface cooling with the egger system possible in many areas of application, even retrofitted. Passive cooling is best retrofitted using suspended chilled ceilings. For this purpose, the egger registers are mounted on the ceiling and covered, for example, with plasterboard or perforated panels.
Other areas of application:
- New construction
- (Gentle) Redevelopment
- Refurbishment despite monument protection
- Single room solutions
- High old building rooms
Whether in private living areas, offices or large production halls, the system can be flexibly adapted and is even suitable for sensitive greenhouses. The possibilities of cooling always exist to the same extent as there is a corresponding source of cold.
Conclusion
Tempered surfaces bring many advantages even in the long term. Whether in a new building or retrofitted, the egger system sustainably creates a healthy and pleasant cool indoor climate. Cool basement rooms can be used for cooling and at the same time they are freed from moisture and mold.
