It has been generally accepted for several years that we as a country cannot continue for the purpose of heating our homes, to use energy at our current rate of consumption whether this be gas, oil or electricity. It is better understood now than in the past that particularly with the use of fossil fuels such as gas, oil or coal, that there is a limited supply of these particular resources and it can be calculated depending upon which country you are living in, as to how many years that these resources will remain available to us. Taking this into account the accent has been not only on reducing our fossil footprint, but becoming in general more energy efficient.  > > >

It is with great pleasure that we are able to inform you as of the 1st February 2010, ACSO (France) and CEILHIT (Spain) will be incorporated within the FENIX GROUP OF COMPANIES. It is our belief that this merger will not only bring to the market a significantly expanded product range but will result in increased confidence within the field of electrical heating.

By this acquisition FENIX HOLDING is now one of the largest and most influential companies involved in the marketing of large area surface radiant heating. Naturally all your existing contacts within the organisation will remain unchanged with the exception of Katerina Svozilova who will assume the position of Managing Director of Ceilhit S.A. We look forward as a result of this acquisition, to continue and indeed strengthen our existing business relationship, and are certain that together we can expand the reputation of not only Fenix Group but also that of all our existing partners.

Dear Customers,
The ever-growing amount of errors during connection of the AUBE TH 132AF (Honeywell) thermostat has persuaded us of the necessity to once again stress the correct approach to connecting it.  > > >

‘Snow is falling, snow on snow…’ - a beautiful winter idyll. Everyone certainly enjoys looking out of their window at snow-covered countryside. However, it is worse when you have to clean up this white ‘gift’ in order to get to your doorway or garage. Probably everyone wonders while cleaning up the snow if there isn’t a simpler way of getting rid of it. The answer is simple. Use heating circuits or ECOFLOOR mats.  > > >

GR(T) SET panels with integrated wireless regulation
In 2008, FENIX extended its product range to include GR glass heating panels. These are radiant heating panels, made from 12 mm thick tempered safety glass, a heating element, limiting thermostat and supply cable. These panels are intended for use mainly in the heating of living spaces. However, a GRT type is also on offer, equipped with a chrome towel rail and intended specially for the heating of bathrooms.  > > >

Today, floor heating is gradually coming to be considered standard equipment, and not only as a system intended for heating but also as a comfortable accessory for the household. Almost everyone has heard about the pleasant feeling which warm floor tiling brings into the bathroom and most of us know at least one person who uses this comfortable heating. Because of this, only a few people ask whether it is possible to place heating mats into the cement under the tiling – it has become something which is obvious and nobody finds this application unusual. However, the situation with other floor coverings is somewhat different.  > > >

The unique combination of Unique ® floors with heating foil
The multi-layer wooden floor, installed via what is known as the ‘floating’ method, is a standard type of flooring which is widely used today. Such floors are popular thanks to their ease of maintenance, aesthetic appearance, lifespan and many other advantages.  > > >

Given the rising demand for products the company Fenix was at the end of 2008 extended the production of heating cables by a new production line (a description in a separate article). Further development of the production of heating cables, however, was limited by the size of existing production areas and therefore it was decided to carry out extensions to the size of 550 m².  > > >

From the beginning of May we are expanding the range of our ECOFLOOR products to include a new ADSA ultra-thin heating cable and also CM taped heating mats, which are produced from it.  > > >

On 4. 5. 2009, a new line for the production of heating cables was completed with the installation of an extruder for the production of fluoropolymer insulation and sheathing. Thus, two extruders are now included in the new line and it is currently possible to use this line to produce all types of insulation and sheathing for ECOFLOOR heating cables.  > > >

At the end of January 2009, a third fully automatic line for the production of heating cable insulation and sheathing was successfully installed, and began operation.  > > >

The beginning of 2009 kicked off a year of further important investment in the automation of ECOFLOOR heating mat and heating circuit production. In mid-January what is already the third fully automatic machine for the production of heating mats was successfully brought into operation.  > > >

Another Fenix reference building in which electric floor heating has been installed is a detached house in Krmelínská Street in Ostrava – Nová Bělá. The house belongs to Altabix s.r.o., which designs and executes turn-key family houses for its customers, made using the POROTHERM brick system. The described building is one of the home types they offer, and Altabix s.r.o. has made it accessible to the public as a show home.  > > >
