In radiant wall and ceiling hydronic room heating or cooling systems, using tubing that is fed hot or cold water, the tubing is embedded in gypsum or cement wallboard in intimate thermal contact therewith so that the wallboard heats or cools the room

摘要

A method of providing hydronic radiant heating and/or cooling to a room that is framed by wall studs and ceiling rafters, comprising the steps of: providing a sheet of gypsum or cement wallboard with a length of tubing embedded in said gypsum or cement material of said wallboard, attaching the sheet of gypsum or cement wallboard with length of tubing embedded therein to the wall studs or ceiling rafters of the room, abutting conventional wallboard of the same thickness and connecting a supply of warm or cool water to the tubing for feeding water through the tubing, so that heated water so fed through the tubing heats the gypsum or cement material in the wallboard, which heats the room, or cooled water so fed through the tubing cools the gypsum or cement material in the wallboard, which cools the room.
