This ebook from AET Flexible Space<\/a> examines the benefits and design freedom offered by underfloor air conditioning (UfAC)<\/h2>\n

It examines the types of system available and how they can be incorporated into both new buildings and refurbishment projects, including those with height restrictions and large, open plan spaces.<\/p>\n

Indeed, height savings are one of the key benefits of integrating underfloor air conditioning into a project at the design stage. In new builds, UfAC can save up to 600mm by removing services from the ceiling void. In high-rise towers, adopting UfAC throughout can save as much as 10% on height, resulting in turn in savings on fa\u00e7ade materials, labour and construction costs.<\/p>\n

Alternatively, buildings could maintain their original planned height but using UfAC would increase the number of floors and, ultimately, the area of net lettable space.<\/p>\n

In refurbishment projects, underfloor air conditioning has been used to reduce slab-to-slab heights and can help designers overcome the space restrictions that often hinder the installation of air conditioning in older buildings.<\/p>\n

The ebook also discusses the design application of different zone units, fan terminal units and raised floors.<\/p>\n

In addition, it features a range of case studies looking at underfloor air conditioning systems installations both in the UK and abroad, from the refurb of the historic 8 Waterloo Place in London<\/a> and the redevelopment of the former Olympic Press Centre in Stratford by architect Grimshaw into a “mini-city” aimed at media and tech start-ups through to the Parkview Green building in Beijing, China.<\/p>\n
