This low-energy detached house is located in the village of Nedožery - Brezany, in the district of Prievidza. The house is inhabited by a four-member family; it was finished and made operational on 01.12.2007. It is a standard modern detached house built by DEK, Martin, type SO 01, which fulfills the criteria for placement in the NED (Low-Energy House) group. > > >
A low-energy detached house was built in the village of Hošťálkovice near Ostrava in 2009. Electric floor heating provides the heating in this two-storey building with a total habitable area of 119.5m². The building is currently (10/2011) only inhabited by two adults; their two adolescent children are only home occasionally because of their studies. > > >
To meet the growing demand for FLEXEL products within the UK and world wide markets, FLEXEL International Limited has recently completed the construction of a new purpose built storage facility at a cost of £350,000.
This new 430m² building is equipped with an 8m high racking system capable of storing more than 700 standard Euro pallets in addition to large stocks of finished goods ready for next day delivery. > > >
We are pleased to inform that good economic results enabled Ceilhit s.l., the youngest member of the Fenix group, to invest approximately CZK 10,000,000 into relocating all its activities to new premises in Gavá, approximately 15 km south of Barcelona. These premises suit much better requirements placed for modern and efficient management of production and logistics. Equally, the position in a modern industrial polygon next to the Barcelona - Valencia highway (Barcelona c. 15 minutes by car, airport c. 10 minutes by car) enables fast and easy access. Let us introduce you to our new grounds now: > > >
Ortotech s.r.o. provides comprehensive services in the area of orthopaedics, prosthetics, physiotherapy and production of tailor-made orthopaedic and prosthetic medical devices. While carrying out the renovation, the owners of the company decided to use electric heating to upgrade the heating equipment and especially to be able to employ their own production technology. > > >
Matyas House was built within the precincts of the Town Castle around 1479 and it was incorporated in the Miners' Bastion. The house is a tall four-storey building adjoining the Slovak Church. The majority of rooms are with flat ceilings, only some of them on the ground and first floors are barrel vaulted. > > >
Medial virtual reality keeps confirming the conviction that the growth of energy prices applies exclusively to the electric energy and the rise in the prices of gas remains almost without any comments.
What is the reality, though – let´s look at some hard data published by EUROSTAT:

The Golden Lane at the Prague Castle was festively opened after a year-long reconstruction on 1st June 2011. The main objective of the reconstruction commenced in May 2010 was to repair the obsolete rain water drainage system. The situation was serious as the status of the system was endangering the structural stability of the individual buildings.
During the renovation, a complete reconstruction of all underground services and internal wiring inside the total of 16 period houses was carried out. The whole renovation cost approximately CZK 34 mil, additional CZK 5 mil were invested in restoration works. > > >
In April 2010 the Fenix Group produced a report titled "ECOFILM Ceiling Heating in Low Energy Houses". The purpose of this report was to demonstrate that satisfactory thermal gradient comfort curves can be achieved for large area low power radiant ceiling heating systems installed in low heat loss properties. > > >

where the panel ECOSUN 300U is compared with a product of the Chinese company YUNSOR.
It is clear from the course of the test and its conclusions that the manufacturer does not have sufficient knowledge in the field of thermodynamics and his conclusions are entirely misleading: > > >

In July 2010 our Turkish partner, the company YS Mimarlik, installed heating for the playing field at the Kasimpasa premier league football club’s stadium in Istanbul. The new grass surface with electric heating is part of a complete reconstruction of this stadium. ECOFLOOR MAPSV type heating cables with a wattage of 15W/m were used. > > >
Anyone considering the construction of a house today almost certainly assumes it will have a minimum of class B energy efficiency, or possibly be on the border between A and B, or even be wholly within the A band (more about PENB – the energy performance certificate for buildings – can be found here…). In other words, it will be at least a low energy house (LEH), or almost a passive house. It is probable that no one today is planning buildings with worse heating characteristics. One of the choices which have to be made concerns the selection of an appropriate heating system. Much has been written about this issue, and much of that contains varying and sometimes even mutually contradictory recommendations. The reason for this is not only that the writers have different subjective viewpoints, but also different priorities which bias their arguments. > > >
In the winter period, harsh climatic conditions can lead to complications on construction sites during repairs to damaged gas and water networks, excavation work etc. Such problems can be avoided with the help of FENIX electric heating systems. > > >
The virtual reality created by the media gives the impression that the growth in electricity prices is way out of control, and that it is significantly higher than the growth in prices of other energy sources. But what is the situation really like in the EU and in the Czech Republic? Let’s take a look at the hard data published by the EUROSTAT agency: > > >
