capillary tube mats
Advantages of the capillary heating system Greata Hydro Low temperature heating
sufficient flow temperature of +25-30°C due to the large-area cover with capillary tubes
Choice of energy sources
Use with various energy sources such as central heating, gas boiler, pellet boiler, heat pump, etc.
Reduced circulation of dust, viruses and bacteria in the room
Significantly reduced circulation of dust, viruses and bacteria along with airflow, which is particularly important to limit the spread of COVID-19
Comfort level
does not cause dry air and creates a pleasant indoor climate
Cost savings
excellent cost savings in combination with different types of heat pumps
Saving of finishing materials
requires less dry concrete (screed) and other leveling materials for underfloor heating
Extensive installation options
Can be installed on the floor, ceiling or wall and in combination with a room cooling system

Reducing CO2 emissions
According to a report by an independent expert in the field of energy efficiency, SIA “Ekodoma”, based on the characteristics of the system, the amount of CO2 generated by the Greata capillary system per year is 3.25 kg CO2/m2 less than that of conventional underfloor heating and 5.9 kg CO2/m2 less than the radiator system.
Energy source
The water capillary mat system can be connected to various heat/cold sources.

underfloor heating; Inside ceiling and wall heating
Heating and cooling, if the system is installed in the ceiling or walls.
The ceiling is the largest free space in the room, so it is recommended to mount the system on the ceiling and supplement it with installation on the walls or floor, if it is necessary to provide more heating or cooling performance.
Large capillary system efficiency
When calculating the required heating and cooling capacity in a room, the thermal conductivity of the selected finishing material must be taken into account. The higher it is, the higher the efficiency of the heating and cooling system.
In the case of capillary heating, a person feels a temperature of 2-3 degrees higher than the air temperature in the room.
