More stable heating element using Carbon Nanotube technology at production.

     CALEO PREMIUM LINE film heater is an energy saving suface heater, utilizes carbon nanotubes (CNT) to provide superior stability, efficiency and reliability compared to other conventional and PTC heaters. Nano sized carbon sheets, consisting of carbon atoms, are rolled into tube shapes to become a giant molecule. Its electric conductivity is 1000 times higher than copper and it’s heat conductivity is more than two times higher than diamond, providing extreme heat-resistant effect.

    After developing the heating foil product in 2005, in 2008 BVF-CALEO holding, contrary to other producers, decided to avoid spending its resources on the unreliable, “self-regulating”, so-called PTC technology, and turned towards the distinctively different CNT (carbon Nano tube) system development process with the active cooperation of engineers from Japan and South-Korea. Practical experiences have proven us.

      A nearly seven-year development process has resulted in a patented technology that no other manufacturer has been able to catch up with so far. Our technology has not only achieved significant efficiency gains, but it has become a benchmark for operational safety and extreme load capacity.   

    Learn more about BVF-CALEO’s latest surface heating technology that replaces the “old heating film”, which had been developed since 2005 through 4 generation types. In the production technology, the use of the CNT (carbon Nano tube) heat exchanger with extreme load capacity is a real innovation.

    The brand new CALEO 80-130 heating film, which complies with all European requirements and standards, provides a more economical and safe operation when compared to conventional electric floor heating and heating films.

On both sides of the CALEO heating film, there are high purity copper conductors attached to a Nano-tech heating element through a patented trapezoid-silver mesh. Electrical resistance is generated between the two conductors, which warms up the special carbon heating element to its optimum temperature depending on the performance. The heating film transfers its own heat to the flooring through heat transfer / heat conduction.

CALEO heating films consist of 3 layers and basically 4 main components. The production of these components from carefully selected raw materials, their treatment in a heat chamber, as well as the high quality laminating of the layers are indispensable requirements for producing a robust final product. The quality of raw materials and Nano-technological printing also play an important role in achieving maximum efficiency.

Yes, naturally it does. Electric floor heating installed with heating film can heat up everything that can be heated up by traditional water circulation floor heating. Nevertheless, it can be also used for more comfort or as additional heating by means of setting the performance and the thermostat. In the case of doors and windows with big surfaces, the installation of perimeter heating is reasonable. In such cases, heating films with higher performance are installed below the cooling structures.

Yes, you can. CNT smart technology allows heating films to be operated in the long run in a covered state, directly under the covers. The use of CALEO products allows free interior design. The place of fixed built-in furniture (kitchen counter, built-in wardrobe) can be deducted from the area to be laid already during the design work.

No, you can’t. The tile adhesive cannot bind on plastic (PET) surfaces as this would result in a surface that cannot be covered. Heating films are suitable for the heating of dry construction or click system covers (laminate flooring, strip parquet or over ceiling plasterboard). Floor tiles, carpets and vinyl covers are heated by special electric heating mats optimized for this purpose.

Without any mechanical damage, CALEO CNT heating films have an unlimited life. This means minimum 50 heating seasons even without a decrease in performance, which is many times more than the obsolescence time of an average building engineering system. During the above period it does not need revisions under guarantee or maintenance.

Relevant standards do not distinguish electric and water circulation floor heating. Pursuant to the above globally accepted health limit values, floor temperature should be between 29 and 31°C. Heating time is short, it varies between 15 and 45 minutes, which also depends on the initial and current temperature of the room.
