Energy efficiency upgrades with Indecal low-thickness radiant systems: the ideal ally for renovations

The Italian and European building stock is often characterized by dated buildings, with high energy consumption and living comfort levels far from modern standards. Energy efficiency improvements are therefore a priority, supported by incentives and regulations that promote high-efficiency solutions. In this context, Indecal's low-thickness radiant systems are confirmed as one of the most effective and versatile technologies, ideal for renovations without invasive demolition.

Why low-thickness radiant systems are ideal for renovations

One of the main obstacles in redevelopment projects is represented by architectural and structural constraints : limited floor thicknesses, the need to preserve internal heights, and the impossibility of carrying out major demolition. Indecal's low-thickness radiant systems , such as Slim 18 , address these critical issues thanks to a minimal overall height, which allows installation even over existing floors.

A complete system is enclosed in just a few millimeters : plasterboard panel, plumbing pipes, and screed. The result is an efficient system that can be integrated into any building context, from private homes to offices, and even the renovation of historic buildings.

Energy efficiency and comfort with heat pumps

Low-profile radiant systems are designed to work synergistically with low-temperature heat pumps , ensuring significant energy savings compared to traditional systems. Reduced thermal inertia allows for a more rapid response to load changes, improving temperature regulation and perceived comfort in the rooms.

Heat (or cooling) is distributed evenly, eliminating cold spots and drafts typical of radiator or fan coil systems. This helps improve living quality and reduce energy consumption, with both economic and environmental benefits.

Speed of installation and reduction of construction site times

In addition to performance advantages, low-thickness radiant systems offer an important plus during renovations: speed of installation . Installing directly over the existing floor eliminates the time and costs associated with demolition, while the reduced thickness facilitates adaptation even in complex contexts.

The self-leveling screed, applied in just a few millimeters, allows for rapid completion of the installation cycle, reducing waiting times before applying the final finish. This feature is particularly appreciated in residential renovations, where downtime must be kept to a minimum.

The Indecal solution for sustainable redevelopment

Indecal has developed low-thickness radiant systems specifically designed for renovations, combining efficiency, practicality, and reliability. The quality of the materials, technological research, and focus on integrating renewable energy sources make these solutions a true ally for designers and installers engaged in energy retrofit projects.

Thanks to their versatility, Indecal radiant systems adapt to a wide range of contexts, helping to increase the value of properties and ensure a more sustainable future for the construction industry.
