The invention relates to a building panel intended for creating heating and/or cooling walls of buildings, comprising: a base element defined by an upper face, a lower face and several lateral faces, circulation means (12) for the circulation of a heat-transfer or cooling fluid, which are arranged on the inside of said base element, a substantially flat conducting element, fixed to the upper face of the base element so as to cover it entirely or almost entirely, said conducting element having good thermal conductivity, mechanical connection means secured to said base element, said mechanical connection means being able to allow removable attachment of said building panel to an identical or similar building panel arranged adjacent to the latter, fluidic-connection means designed to allow the heat-transfer or cooling fluid to circulate between said building panel and an identical or similar building panel attached thereto, leak detection means able to detect a leak of heat-transfer or cooling fluid at the lower or upper face of the base element.

A baseboard heating system mounted proximate a juncture of a wall and a floor of a room. The system includes a length of longitudinal piping for the passage of a heated liquid there through and radiating heat fins surrounding the length of longitudinal piping. A heat reflective metal backplate is mounted to the wall behind the length of longitudinal piping and the radiating heat fins. A baseboard heater cover is adapted to cover the piping and heat fins either as an original heater cover or a replacement. The heater cover is supported by the floor and extends at least the length of the longitudinal piping and the radiating heat fins. The heater cover is removably, adjustably and magnetically coupled to the heat reflective metal backplate. The heater cover may be selectively removed to access the longitudinal piping and radiating heat fins and be easily adjusted for proper placement.

A support for the heating elements of radiant coverings and floors is disclosed. One example of a support disclosed herein includes bosses having a concave portion. In some examples, defined on the surface of the concave portion is at least one adhering low relief, for example four adhering low reliefs may be provided per concave portion.

A hydronic panel and system for heating and/or cooling a room is disclosed. The hydronic panel includes a plurality of contiguous channels. A first chamber is located at a first end, preferably the upper end, of the panel and includes an inlet and communicates with a first subset of the channels. A second chamber is located at an opposite end of the panel and communicates with the first subset and also with a second subset of the channels. A third chamber is located at the first end of the panel, the third chamber communicates with the second subset of the channels and includes an outlet. In this configuration, heated or cooled water flows from the inlet into the first chamber, through the first subset of the channels, to the second chamber, through the second subset of the channels, into the third chamber and out the outlet. Consequently, the heated or cooled water can heat or cool the space. In addition to at least one hydronic panel, the system includes a source of heated and/or cooled water under sufficient pressure to cause the water to flow through the panel. The system also includes a controller to control one or both of the temperature of the water and the flow rate of the water through the panel.

A pneumatic radiation unit according to the present invention includes: a first chamber including a first air discharger configured to discharge air-conditioning air to a second chamber; and the second chamber including a second air discharger configured to discharge the air-conditioning air to a space to be air conditioned, the second chamber being configured to take in the air-conditioning air from the first chamber and discharge the air-conditioning air and radiate heat to the space to be air conditioned. A second aperture ratio of the second air discharger is set to be greater than a first aperture ratio of the first air discharger, or a cross-sectional area of a flow passage of the air-conditioning air in the first chamber is gradually reduced from an upwind side to a downwind side of the flow passage of the air-conditioning air.

An energy regulating system and thermally regulated article for a habitable space or vehicle interior space are provided which include a thermally conductive member, such as one or more sheets of flexible graphite member, in thermal communication with a thermal energy source such as a heat source or cold source. The thermally conductive -member having an exterior surface adapted to be exposed to an occupant of the vehicle or building. A controller is in operable communication with a power source connected in the heat source or cold source for regulating the temperature perceived by the occupant by varying the power supplied to the heat source or cold source.

Provided is a self-assembly hot water mat capable of extending through assembly. A self-assembly hot water mat capable of being assembled with other self-assembly hot water mats, having four sides, and including a path for circulating hot water includes a plurality of hot water passages formed in the self-assembly hot water mat to provide a plurality of hot water flow paths, an inlet formed at each of the four sides, through which hot water flows in, and an outlet formed at each of the four sides and paired with the inlet, through which hot water flows out.

A multifunctional ceiling structure, in particular for living spaces and workspaces, and includes multiple heat-conducting profiles that are directly or indirectly fastened to a building ceiling, and a downwardly directed mounting surface, with a line receiving region formed in the mounting surface. Furthermore, a heating medium line is provided that runs in the line receiving region of the heat-conducting profiles and conducts a heat-transporting medium. A ceiling panel is fastened to the mounting surface of the heat-conducting profiles and is in heat-conducting contact with the heating medium line. An absorber strip made up of sound absorber elements extends along an upper abutting edge that runs between a building wall and the plane of the ceiling panel. The sound absorber elements have a width of 200-400 mm, a thickness of 25-65 mm, and a length-specific flow resistance in the range of 8-10 kPa*s/m.sup.4.
