At Central Heating New Zealand, our partnership with Variotherm has spanned over a decade, allowing us to bring cutting-edge heating and cooling solutions to commercial and residential spaces across the country. In 2020, we expanded our offerings to include Variotherm's Module Wall and Ceiling systems, which integrate seamlessly into the fabric of buildings, maximising space while minimising visual impact.
Variocomp Floor Heating System: A Foundation of Comfort
Our journey with Variotherm began with the popular Variocomp floor heating system, a solution that remains a cornerstone of our product lineup. Variocomp is a perfect choice for spaces requiring unobtrusive yet efficient heating. Its ultra-thin profile makes it ideal for both renovations and new builds, offering even heat distribution across large areas. While our new office building utilises traditional in-slab heating due to its concrete floors, Variocomp’s quick installation and rapid heat-up times make it a standout option for projects where time and efficiency are critical.
- Ultra-Thin Profile: Ideal for renovations and new builds with minimal height impact.
- Even Heat Distribution: Provides consistent warmth across large areas.
- Quick Installation: Perfect for projects where time efficiency is critical.
- Rapid Heat-Up Time: Ensures a comfortable indoor climate quickly.
- Unobtrusive Design: Integrates seamlessly into any flooring type.
Module Wall and Ceiling Systems: Integrated Climate Control
Building on the success of Variocomp, our range now includes the Variotherm Module Wall and Ceiling systems. These systems consist of 18mm fibrous gypsum panels with integrated aluminium multi-layer composite pipes, offering a sophisticated solution for surface heating and cooling. The radiant heat provided by these water-filled pipes creates a healthy and comfortable indoor climate and the versatility of these panels, which can be supplied in various formats, ensures ease of installation and compatibility with any architectural design.
In our new building, the Module Ceiling system will play a crucial role in maintaining a consistent and comfortable environment. The system’s ability to both heat and cool, when paired with smart controls like the SmartOne thermostat, ensures optimal temperature regulation year-round. This technology not only enhances comfort but also contributes to energy efficiency, making it a sustainable choice for any commercial application.
- Integrated Design: 18mm fibrous gypsum panels with embedded aluminium pipes.
- Versatile Installation: Available in various formats for easy installation.
- Radiant Heating and Cooling: Provides healthy and comfortable indoor climate control.
- Year-Round Comfort: Suitable for both heating and cooling with smart controls.
- Space-Saving: Concealed within walls or ceilings, maximising usable space.
Acoustic Ceiling Panels: Enhancing Workplace Comfort
For spaces where acoustic comfort is as important as temperature control, Variotherm’s Acoustic Ceiling panels are an exceptional solution. These panels, available as part of the Module Ceiling range, combine efficient heating and cooling with sound-absorbing properties. They are particularly beneficial in commercial environments like offices, conference rooms, and client meeting areas, where reducing noise levels is essential. In our new building, these panels will be instrumental in creating a quiet, comfortable environment that supports both employee productivity and client interactions.
- Dual Functionality: Combines temperature control with sound absorption.
- Noise Reduction: Ideal for offices, conference rooms, and client meeting areas.
- Aesthetic Design: Perforated panels with a pleasing finish.
- Enhanced Productivity: Creates a quiet and comfortable workspace.
- Energy Efficient: Contributes to a sustainable indoor environment.
Skirting Heating Systems: Efficient Edge-of-Room Heating
For buildings where wall or ceiling installations are not feasible, our Skirting Heating systems provide an effective alternative. These systems, installed along the base of external walls, create a warm air barrier that prevents cold air from entering the room. This feature is particularly valuable in older buildings or spaces with large glass surfaces, where maintaining a consistent indoor temperature can be challenging. The skirting heating systems also offer benefits like preventing damp walls and mold formation, making them an excellent choice for both new and renovated spaces.
- Edge-of-Room Heating: Installed along the base of external walls.
- Cold Air Barrier: Prevents cold air from entering the room, maintaining a consistent temperature.
- Prevents Damp Walls: Helps avoid mold formation by keeping walls dry.
- Versatile Application: Suitable for new builds, renovations, and spaces with large glass surfaces.
- Discreet and Flexible: Allows furniture placement with minimal impact on room design.
- Quick Heating Response: Rooms warm up rapidly, enhancing comfort.
