Radiant heating and cooling
Uponor commercial radiant heating and cooling systems
Uponor radiant heating and cooling systems improve energy efficiency and indoor environmental quality (IEQ) for structures around the globe.Consistently comfortable
Uponor hydronic radiant floor heating and cooling distributes comfortable temperatures evenly. There are no hot or cold spots, making it ideal for buildings with high ceilings and/or expansive windows.How hydronic radiant floor heating and cooling worksPEX pipe and water flow
Water flows through flexible PEX pipes embedded in the ground, within a concrete slab or in radiant panels.Energy transfer
The radiant surface area transfers energy to effectively heat and/or cool for the most superior human thermal comfort.
Heating and cooling benefits
Heat radiates up from the floor to warm people and objects or absorbs heat back into the floor to provide cooling benefits.
Efficient design
Systems can even transport heat from one side of a building to the other to heat and cool simultaneously throughout the day.
Reduces cooling loads
Radiant cooling can effectively manage all or at least a portion of the building’s sensible load to reduce the total demand placed on a forced-air system.
Flooring compatibility
A radiant heating and cooling system is also compatible under any type of floor covering — carpet, wood, slate, tile, stone, laminate, and even concrete.
Several installation methods
Uponor offers several methods for installing a radiant heating and cooling system: tie downs, staples, rails and Radiant Rollout™ Mats.
Piping solutions
Uponor offers Wirsbo hePEX™ oxygen-barrier pipe along with Ecoflex® pre-insulated piping systems for distribution to radiant heating and cooling systems.
HyDronic radiant vs. forced-air hvacRadiant systems energy and comfort comparisons
A hydronic radiant system is much more energy efficient compared to a forced-air HVAC system.
- Water has the capacity to transfer energy 3,500 times greater than air.
- Energy savings can range from 20% to 40% over traditional forced-air systems.
- Radiant provides greater thermal comfort at a lower temperature setpoint for heating and a higher temperature setpoint for cooling.
Save 80% on installation time
Radiant Rollout™ Mats are a custom-designed, prefabricated network of Uponor PEX pipe that installers can simply "roll out" on the job site, saving up to 80% on installation time.View productA partner you can trust25-year transferable warranty

Turf conditioning
Uponor PEX turf conditioning systems
Uponor was the first to use PEX piping for hydronic turf conditioning systems. These systems are now used by the National Football League (NFL) and in numerous soccer and other athletic stadiums in Europe, Canada and the United States.How it worksPreserve natural turf all year long
Uponor PEX turf conditioning systems use PEX piping embedded in the soil beneath the turf to circulate a warm water/glycol mixture that helps to maintain an optimum soil temperature for the root bulb of grass plants. This ensures a constant root temperature for lush, green grass year round, which, in turn, helps to protect athletes from serious injury in all climates and seasons.
Support every step of the way
Uponor provides support through every stage of the project delivery process — from solicitation to pre-construction to post-construction.Uponor project deliveryBenefits of an Uponor PEX turf conditioning systemPipe flexibility
Flexible PEX pipe is faster and easier to install compared to rigid metal underground piping systems. Use Uponor's Wirsbo hePEX™ oxygen-barrier pipe in the soil along with the Ecoflex® pre-insulated piping system for distribution.
Superior field conditions
Optimal soil temperature promotes growth, faster recovery, a longer playing season and superior field conditions, which helps protect athletes from serious injury in all climates and seasons.Transferable limited warranty
Uponor PEX pipe and ProPEX® fittings are backed by a 25-year transferable limited warranty.Fewer connections
Long PEX pipe coil lengths greatly reduce or eliminate any underground connections.
