Absolutely, Ray Magic NK® hydronic radiant ceiling panels are suitable for new construction and retrofit applications.
Â
In new construction, they are installed on the ceiling before drywall, following rough plumbing and electrical work.
Â
In retrofits, the panels can be installed on the existing ceiling using furring channels or by removing the old ceiling drywall. This enables the addition of a radiant cooling and heating system to older homes without significant structural modifications.
Note
Choosing the ceiling over a radiant floor retrofit avoids floor adjustments that affect door heights, steps, and transitions. Additionally, it allows for more efficient integration of radiant cooling without compromising heating comfort.
