Perimeter Heating and Cooling Beams
Tate introduces In-floor Active Chilled Beams, designed to be an energy-efficient perimeter heating and cooling solution that combines the benefits of underfloor air distribution with the efficiencies of water heating and cooling. The beams provide the energy savings and capacity of an overhead chilled beam while avoiding many of the concerns, including damage from leaking water lines and latent loads producing condensation, according to company officials. The beams eliminate the need for spider ducting to deliver air to the perimeter and replace perimeter fan-powered boxes under the raised floor, allowing furniture and partitions to be placed freely in the building without concern for maintenance access to equipment. The beams are available in a 2-pipe model, a 4-pipe model and 2-pipe electric model, along with grille accessories.
