How TermoDeck works

How TermoDeck works

TermoDeck is a fan-assisted heating, cooling and ventilating system. It uses the high thermal mass of structural, hollowcore slabs to warm or cool fresh air before it's distributed into the room spaces of the building.

 

 

Controlled by the building management system, supply of air passes through the hollow cores very slowly, giving plenty of time for passive heat exchange between the air and the concrete hollowcore slabs.


The exposed concrete releases heat to, or absorbs heat from, the air passing through it. So by the time the air enters the room it is the ideal temperature for occupant satisfaction.


Thermal mass helps to both cool a building in the summer and keep it warm in winter, to see how this works click on one of the links below:
