Whenever there is a temperature difference between two objects, both objects will attempt to
equalize the temperature.
Radiant energy travels from hot to cold through the space, without heating the space
itself.
Radiant cooling design needs a more sophisticated design approach compared to radiant
heating due to building orientation, solar gains and also condensation issues, which can be a
challenge in some climate areas.
The operative temperature is what we perceive on our skin in a room and what is most
important for a radiant system to work successfully.
Coordination between all people involved in the building design and construction is
mandatory for the success of the integration of radiant systems!
