What is a Heat Transfer System?

This is a ducted transfer system that is installed in the ceiling cavity of your house. The system shifts excess air from one room and distributes it to other areas of the house. This gives your house a more balanced temperature throughout.

As you can see in the image above, the heat is being generated in one area, this can be from a fireplace for example, the heat rises up through the inlet grille, travels through the ducting, assisted by the inline-centrifugal fan, reaching the splitter where the heat is divided, flowing through the outlet grille, warming the room.

When to Consider Installing a Heat Transfer System in Your Home

A question commonly asked. The best way to make this assessment is to ask yourself these questions.

  • Are you generating excess heat in one particular area?
  • Do you have areas in the house that are cold?
  • Is your house stifling hot in the summer?
  • Does the air smell stale in areas of your home?
  • Are you spending extra money on running heaters in other rooms?

If you answered yes to any of these questions then you will benefit from having a heat transfer system installed in your home.

  • An average size lounge requires 2-6 kw of heating, yet heating appliances such as log burners* can generate 10-20kw.
  • That’s 5 times the amount of heat required for a lounge room. This leaves an excess of 8-14 kw of heat available to warm other rooms in your home.
  • Air trapped at ceiling level can reach temperatures in excess of 30°C.
  • So why not Transfer that heat to where it’s needed.
  • Improves energy efficiency
  • Easily installed by a handy person
  • Thermostat or speed controllable
  • Constant Air Movement reduces the risk of damp
