I AM WORKING ON A CEILING RADIANT JOB FROM THE EARLY 1960'S
IN CONNECTICUT.DOES ANYONE KNOW WHAT THE DESIGN WATER TEMP MIGHT HAVE APPROXIMATELY BEEN FOR THESE SYSTEMS?I AM ASSUMING IT WOULD BE SIMILAR TO FLOOR HEATING BUT HAVE NO EXPERIENCE IN THIS.THE MIXING VALVE IS NOT FUNCTIONING SO RIGHT NOW WE ARE GETTING BOILER TEMP THRU THE COPPER IN THE CEILING.

    Old Frank D.Graham say`s, radiant ceilings are generally at 100* for 7ft. 10* are added for each additional ft. If the coil is embedded in plaster 130* is maximum.

    Radiant Ceiling Water Temperatue

    105 degrees was the "normal" temperature for a standard height ceiling. Nothing better than a copper radiant ceiling system.
