What this work involves
Start with available height, subfloor and finish. Not every floor is suitable for cutting channels. Coordinate the system and controls for each room.
- Heat demand and source
- Floor suitability
- System and height
- Manifold, controls and routes
- Finish and commissioning
Use the following design considerations when coordinating this service with a wider project. Agree which parts apply to your request.
Review reflections and colour surfaces beside large windows when selecting finishes.
What the drawing needs to explain
Draw sightlines from two seats and show shading positions. Review the same layout in daylight and with interior lights on; privacy works differently in those situations.
How to review the result
Check the view at seated height and operate all opening elements. Review whether shading and lighting provide the intended shelter without obstructing everyday circulation.
Cost factors for this service
System, area, repairs and installation changes influence the price.
Bring this to the discussion
Plans, heat source, floor construction and finish preference.
Questions about the work
Is every floor suitable?
Structure, height, finish and heating demand must be compatible. The heating and flooring specialists should coordinate their requirements.
The design situations here illustrate choices; they are not completed projects or a diagnosis of your property.
