Happy FAQ Friday! Today’s frequently asked question is: “What is radiant cooling, and how does it work?” 🤔 Radiant cooling is a technology used to cool buildings based on heat extraction via cold surfaces. The HVAC industry refers to this technology as “radiant cooling,” but scientifically speaking, you can’t radiate cooling since heat always travels to
Back in 2007, Nice Group installed our Ray Magic® radiant panels in their futuristic headquarters in Oderzo, Italy. A lot has happened since then, and now, we want to congratulate Nice Group on their acquisition of Nortek Control! Nortek Control has a long track record and solid reputation as an innovator in smart homes,
Here's a great graphic that shows the different types of geothermal heat pump systems; and how they use the Earth's thermal properties to heat or cool a fluid. GHPs are a highly efficient means of heating and cooling an environment and producing domestic hot water; making them an ideal energy source to be used alongside
Wondering how you’d install our Ray Magic® NK ceiling panels? You’ve got options! Check out the different ways you can install our radiant ceiling panels! You can install them in between: -Ceiling joists (24 O.C.) -Metal furring channels spaced 24 O.C. -Wood furring channels spaced 24 O.C. Installing our panels in between ceiling joists provides
TRUE or FALSE: The use of Ray Magic® ceiling panels can slow the spread of airborne viruses like COVID-19? TRUE! A major downside of traditional forced-air systems is that they consistently recirculate the same air throughout a home or building. This means that dust, particulates, and other contaminants are pumped throughout the space. Meanwhile,
Happy FAQ Friday! Whenever we talk about our Ray Magic® NK ceiling panels we always get asked: “Doesn’t heat rise?” Yes, hot air rises... Thermal radiation, however, knows no up or down, left or right. There is only one direction, and that is hot to cold! This is the same principle with the sun
For the last 20 years, we have consistently innovated to create the best climate control system possible. We are revolutionizing the industry by moving away from the outdated wall thermostat and have put that power right in our customer's pocket!

Check out this mZone module in action! This zoning controller is installed at the manifold location to activate the thermal actuators and the GRUNDFOS recirculating pump. It modulates the fluid temperature through a three-way mixing valve and it sets heating and cooling change-over with a six-way diverting valve, both manufactured by Belimo. It also controls air treatment units
We’re excited to announce that we will be attending the 2022 AHR Expo, the largest HVACR event that attracts the most comprehensive gathering of industry professionals from around the globe each year!
