We recently purchased a Condo next to the heating within the ceiling. Before the extreme cold weather sets in, does anyone enjoy suggestions on how this ceiling heat works? Will I freeze within the winter? We have other had warmth coming from the floor. Any suggestions on keeping the rooms warm, would be make the acquaintance of.
I'm within the South, and here most condos are built on concrete slabs instead of basements or crawl spaces, making a floor vent impossible, at least on the ground stratum. The second floor may or may not have floor vent.
Ceiling vents work best for AC, since cold nouns rises sinks and warm nouns rises. Its always a toss up between floor vs ceiling vent for that reason, but have experience in the business, I other preferred floor vents when possible.
If your condo have ceiling fans, keeping them on low speed and blowing downward will sustain pull the heated nouns that WILL accumulate at the ceiling down into the living nouns and distribute it more evenly. I have floor vent and still use the ceiling fans to preserve the heat down where on earth it is needed!
What's a condo?
This is a serious point so please don't be offended, but I found your give somebody the third degree on the Yahoo UK&Ireland Only questions site.
I assume that it's something American if you're heat it, because in the UK a "condo" would be an short form for a contraceptive and we don't usually use artificial heat contained by those.
I guess it's another example of our two languages diverging.
Answers: More than likely, the vent are in the celling instead of the floor. It should work simply like your hoary unit. Get a professional to evaluate your system until that time winter sets in. (tune up) Everything should be of late fine. with things the route they are.
If there are no vent in the cieling I would enunciate your Condo is old, nearby is probily electric heat that radiate thew a loop of small wires, If there are vent you have a forced nouns system, that likly heats the undamaged Condo complex , as Some one said us your Fans on low , Stay warm
