It also works in homes with wall heating. My parents now have wall cooling, which is much nicer than any forced air AC.

- weberer 4mo ago>wall cooling That sounds like a big mold risk if its causing condensation in the walls. Wall heating, on the other hand sounds like a great idea.
- vrganj 4mo agoTheir walls are autoclaved aerated concrete, which is pretty good at both insulating (so less cooling needed) and absorbing/diffusing humidity, so I think in their case it's fine. It's a pretty cool material!
- ben_w 4mo agoWe have underfloor heating/cooling; the only mould we see anywhere now is a small amount on the skylight, and previously some in the bathroom that was due to a leaking roof the builders have since made good. Condensation needs humidity, not just a lower temperature. In summer, this is rare, even though we're in Berlin which is essentially built in the middle of a huge area of low-lying marshy woodlands.
