University of Applied Sciences
On completing the building’s structural shell, the builders discovered the following faux pas: there was not enough space for the planned floor heating in the lecture theatres (thickness too high!).
However, with the help of Variotherm’s VarioComp floor heating system, which is only 20 mm thick and is also a drywall construction system, it was possible to begin the academic year on time. More than 260 m2 of VarioComp floor heating have been installed in the five lecture theatres.
The builders and architect were impressed that it was possible - although there was hardly any space - to install a high-performance heating system in next to no time.
The new university building has been in operation since March 2003. The lecture theatres are furnished with state-of-the-art equipment and the VarioComp floor heating ensures a comfortable indoor environment even on the coldest winter days.
