Decrease the energy consumption on your building
PaveConvection is a new eco-friendly method of cooling roofs in the summer heat, using nature’s own energy.
When the sun shines during the summer, a flat roof in Scandinavia can get up to 35-40 °Celsius in the sun. In Mediterranean countries and in the Middle East the temperature on a flat roof can easily get up to 75 °Celsius in the sun. Consequently, a lot of energy is used to cool down roofs and buildings.
The high energy cost can be reduced by using PaveConvection which also saves you money.
With PaveConvection, it is the rays from the sun that deliver the energy for cooling. When the system is installed it is virtually maintenance-free for the remainder of the life of the roof.
The system does not demand power or additional energy to function. This makes the building more eco-friendly. Thus, PaveConvection gives the building a greener profile and reduces energy consumption.
Here is a roof terrace on a flat roof with tiles, supported by PavePads.
Without PaveConvection, the capping prevents cooler air to enter. Thereby, the hot air circulates between roof and tiles and retains the temperature level with the air right about the tiles.
The holes in the capping allow cool air to enter under the roof terrace, which then ventilates the roof.
The hot tiles “suck” the cool air and release it again when the air is heated up. Thereby, a ventilation system of circular cooling under the tiles is created.
The energy of nature is, thereby, used to lower the temperature under the tiles to the same temperature as the shade.
Estimated energy consumption without PaveConvection.
Estimated energy consumption with PaveConvection. With the help of the energy of the sun, the air is replaced and the temperature of the roof is lowered.
PaveConvection is sold as a solution in connection with our PavePad series which is a solution of paving pads for terraces and pavings. Read more about PavePad here.
