Concrete Air Plenum, AIRFLOOR, Inc.
A concrete air plenum is a “green construction” recommendation, providing a means for delivering conditioned air that is integrated into a concrete floor slab of a residence or commercial building. The product described here consists of hollow, interlocking metal forms and air registers that are covered with concrete, creating a low-cost thermal mass for retaining the conditioned air temperature as well as serving as a plenum through which heating and cooling air flows. The completed installation consists of a comfortable radiant floor and ventilating system.
