A heating installation equipped with a radiation- and convection floor heater for heating a room by means of a liquid heat carrier, comprising a device for heating the heat carrier, a circulation pump for circulating the heat carrier, and inflow line and return flow line for the heat carrier. The room is heated by a radiation- and convection floor heating element comprising a pipe through which flows the heat carrier. The pipe is arranged in a hollow space having a starting portion and a terminal portion. The hollow space is further provided with an inflow opening and an outflow opening. The starting portion of the hollow space communicates via the inflow opening with the heated room and the terminal portion of the hollow space communicates via the outflow opening with the heated room. The heated air in the hollow space, which flows through the heated room, is circulated by natural ventilation or forced ventilation.
An installation for controlling the temperature of a room, wherein the floor of the room is formed with at least one channel which is provided with at least two openings establishing communication between the room and the interior of the channel at two positions which are spaced apart along the channel so that air of the room can enter the channel by way of one opening and can pass along the channel and return to the room by way of the other opening, at least one elongate floor element is arranged in parallel to said channel and in thermally-conductive contact with the interior thereof to influence the temperature of air passing along said channel, and a device is connected to the floor element for controlling the temperature thereof whereby the extent to which the floor element influences the temperature of air passing along the channel may be controlled.
