DITRA-HEAT-DUO is installed throughout the massive DFW facility, on a surface of over 25,000 square feet. While the primary goal of the project was to create a comfortable space for employees and visitors, the ambitious project effectively demonstrates how electric floor warming can transform a large commercial building into a warm and inviting space.

At 25,000 square feet, the large size of this DITRA-HEAT-DUO installation demanded hardware to support the floor warming system. Over 140 thermostats and power modules were used in the installation. Three centralized control locations provide the ideal solution to organize and house all these components and are positioned based on room location and synchronization with the HVAC system. Individual zones of the DITRA-HEAT-DUO installation are mapped to corresponding zones of the HVAC system to activate the preferred heating source.

  • Centralized control for all thermostats and power modules
  • No hardware in sight: clean, uncluttered walls
  • Monitoring of the large commercial application at a glance
  • Interchangeable temperature reading points with the use of additional temperature sensors strategically located with cable drops

Guest experience was the center of design attention in this installation. DITRA-HEAT-DUO is installed in all the main areas where guests are received for workshops and events.
