Installing Heated-cooled Ceilings According to Plan

BEKA is manufacturer of components for ceiling heating and cooling. Heating and HVAC technicians are responsible for the professional installation and safe operation of the panel heating system. Because we know well that timely and efficient installation depends above all on the ability to plan the work steps, we do everything we can to optimize the components and deliver them ready for the construction site.

That's why we supply the HVAC installers and contractors with the necessary components in project-specific quantities and dimensions, clearly specified and labeled. All we need is the specific material requirements based on a list of parts, which is drawn up by the architect's or engineer's office as part of the detailed planning for larger projects. For smaller projects and renovations, this list can be prepared directly by the contractors using our technical information and data sheets. However, should design or installation problems arise, our technical support team is available to assist contractors. We can usually deliver the required components to the site within 3 weeks.

The installation of BEKA components for radiant heating-cooling is time-saving and not a new challenge for HVAC specialists, especially when using single-pipe technology. Traditional connection techniques such as thermal plastic welding, soldering, pressing or simply plug connectors are used for installation.

The quantity and quality of common pipe materials or fittings not manufactured by BEKA can be taken from the specifications and purchased from the wholesaler.

Components for the realisation of radiant heating / cooling systems in the best quality

Whether plastered cooling ceilings, radiant ceilings with metal cassettes or plasterboard, whether wall heating or thin-layer underfloor heating - BEKA offers heating and air-conditioning technology companies the suitable system components from its own production for each of these technical tasks.

Project-specific adjustments to the modules are also possible in terms of dimensions and design. All of our components are manufactured to strict operational quality assurance standards. The individual production steps are continuously checked, and at the end of the production run a final test is carried out again. That's why we guarantee a 15-year warranty on BEKA products.

The dispatch of the goods is clearly coordinated with the executing trade before the forwarding agent or the transport service provider takes over the goods from us. Reliability in terms of product quality and binding delivery times are a key concern for us. We want you to be able to carry out your project without delay and with high quality craftsmanship.

The installation of heating and cooling surfaces is a matter for the specialist trade

Specialist installers for HVAC technology are very familiar with the manual installation of heating and cooling ceilings, wall heating or underfloor heating. Where the installation of the BEKA components requires a few special instructions, our technical support is there to help the specialist trade.

Regardless of whether it is about the installation of capillary tube mats, meandering copper tubes or 10 mm PE-RT tubes, all types have been tried and tested for many years and are produced for uncomplicated, quick assembly. Technical information is available in words and images for the standard installation variants in heated and chilled ceilings, wall heating and underfloor heating. These instructions are coordinated with the specifications of the manufacturers of other building materials used in the construction.

BEKA's technical support will assist the trades involved in all other questions relating to the installation of our capillary tube mats, meandering copper tubes or single tube technology. We see the installer as our key on-site partner – where heating and cooling surfaces are to be built and the calculated output is to be provided.

For heating and cooling ceilings in plaster capillary tube mats are the common choice. The capillary tube mats are attached to the raw ceiling with cleaning pins. The cleaning pins, which are actually only intended to hold the plaster, are also used here to hang up the capillary tube mats.

Icon metal coffered ceiling

Capillary tube mats or meandering copper tubes are glued to capillary tube mats or meandering copper tubes in the factory for good thermal conductivity. This shortens the assembly time on the construction site.

Icon ceiling heating / wall heating dry construction

Plasterboard ceilings are thermally activated with capillary tube mats or meandering copper tubes or with BEKA single tube technology. With the 10 mm single pipe technology in drywall, a type with heat-conducting sheets and a type with an integrated pipe are available. The substructure of the plasterboard ceiling follows the standard rules of dry construction.

Soldering

Thermal plastic welding of polypropylene pipes is simple and low in material costs. Connections in copper pipes are soft-soldered as standard or with press connections to save time. Almost no tools are required for installing plug-in connectors in the pipe systems. This modern type of connection technology is reliable and no less secure than other possibilities for connecting pipes.
