Being in Sydney Australia the focus is on cooling rather than heating although perimeter heating would be provided via a separate underfloor air AHU or trench heating etc.<BR><BR>The system offers IEQ and energy efficiency advantages in theory ... though there are a number of fitout and construction challenges.<BR><BR>We are aware of numerous German and Swiss built examples of this type of system, but understand the Canadians have been applying this type of system in places thus I am hopeful this forum can assist with my query.
