## Abstract

In a climate control system for buildings, a number of renewable energy sources (photovoltaic and/or eolic, geothermal and the like) are utilised to obtain a flux of constant temperature fluid to be circulated into radiating pipes placed in continuous spaces or gaps defined in the perimetral walls and floors of said buildings. A desired variable flux of air is made to circulate in said spaces or gaps, to be heated or coiled by said radiating pipes. One said flux of air reaches the desired temperature, its circulation is stopped, to obtain a thermal insulating layer of air, in thermal equilibrium with the rooms to be air conditioned.

## Claims

### Claim at position 1

1-5. (canceled)

### Claim 6

Climate control system for a building, said system comprising:
a building structure including at least one perimetral wall and at least one floor, said perimetral wall and floor each having a plurality of parallel, space-apart continuous panels, with gaps being defined between the panels;
a first system configured to generate and accumulate electricity from renewable sources;
a second system for capturing fluids at a temperature within a preferred range, said second system comprising a geothermic system;
a third system configured to circulate air-flow in a variable capacity manner;
a fourth system configured to monitor and control temperature and humidity of air-flow being circulated by said third system,
wherein the at least one perimetral wall further comprises an external wall and an internal wall defining a gap therebetween, with the gap being divided into at least first, second, and third gaps by the plurality of spaced-apart continuous panels, with a first panel comprising a thermal insulating material, and a second panel comprising a breathable metallic sheet, with a side of the breathable metallic sheet facing the internal wall including an impermeable metal sheet reflective to thermal fluxes, and wherein, in a radiating gap of the first, second, and third gaps created below the at least one floor by the thermally insulating material, a radiating pipe is disposed, with the pipe configured to carry fluid flowing from the second system, and wherein the air-flow from the third system flows through the radiating gap.

### Claim 7 (depends on 6)

A system according to claim 6, wherein said fourth system comprises a centralized remote control system, said centralized remote control system monitoring and regulating the air-flow going through the radiating gap.

### Claim 8 (depends on 7)

A system according to claim 7, wherein said centralized remote control system treats and the dehumidifies the airflow.

### Claim 9 (depends on 6)

A system according to claim 6, wherein the second panel is integral with the first panel.

### Claim 10 (depends on 6)

A system according to claim 6, wherein the second panel is detached from the first panel.

### Claim 11 (depends on 6)

A system according to claim 6, wherein at least two of the first, second, and third gaps are interconnected.

### Claim 12 (depends on 6)

A system to according to claim 6, wherein the second system comprises a plurality of radiating pipes circulating the fluid.

### Claim 13

A method of climate control in a building, said method comprising:
circulating treated air through gaps between internal and external walls in a building;
controlling a temperature of said air by controlling fluid carried in radiator pipes within at least one of said gaps;
monitoring and controlling temperature and humidity of said air by controlling temperature of the fluid circulating in the radiator pipes,
wherein at least one gap is defined between the internal wall and external wall, with the gap being divided into at least first, second, and third gaps by a plurality of spaced-apart continuous panels, with a first panel comprising a thermal insulating material, a second panel comprising a breathable metallic sheet, with a side of the breathable metallic sheet facing the internal wall including an impermeable metal sheet reflective to thermal fluxes, and wherein, in a radiating gap of the first, second, and third gaps, created below a floor by the thermally insulating material, the radiating pipe is disposed.
