Complete solutions for surface heating and cooling
ATHE-Therm Heizungstechnik GmbH is a family-run German manufacturer and system provider for surface heating and cooling systems for floor, wall and ceiling, in business since 1983. The service portfolio covers the development, distribution and installation of wet and dry installation systems, wall and ceiling systems, sports floor and industrial hall heating systems, complemented by compensating insulation, subfloor fill and in-house screeds such as the ATHE-Vuno rapid-cement screed. The core component is the five-layer bonded PE-RT heating pipe ATHE-Middle with oxygen diffusion barrier; carrier plates are available in polystyrene, polyurethane and mineral wool. Planning includes heating load calculation and layout planning according to EnEV and DIN EN regulations; installation is carried out by in-house installers in 35 installation crews with their own trucks on over 600,000 m² per year, nationwide and across Europe. Fields of application include residential, prefabricated house, sports facility and industrial construction as well as public buildings and municipal projects. A service offering of maintenance, flushing, spare parts supply and complaint handling completes the system solution.

Materials and system components
ATHE-Middle five-layer bonded heating pipe (PE-RT)
Diffusion-tight plastic heating pipe with oxygen diffusion barrier, high-temperature and pressure resistant as well as corrosion-free, in 16x2 and 18x2 mm or up to 25x2,3 mm in the industrial sector.
Polystyrene carrier plates
Carrier plates 25–50 mm thick as installation substrate for wet installation systems.
Polyurethane carrier plates
Alternative carrier plate for grid foil installation.
Mineral wool carrier plates
Carrier plate with increased acoustic and fire protection requirements for installation systems.
ALU grid foil (polyester foil with aluminium coating)
Foil with anchor fabric for even heat distribution beneath the heating pipe.
ATHE-Vuno rapid-cement screed (CT per DIN EN 18353/18560)
Building-biology rapid screed, ready for covering in 6–9 days instead of 28 days, with approx. 40 N/mm² compressive strength.
Calcium sulphate screed / flow screed (ATHE-Öko-Quick Liquid Floor)
Flow screed as an alternative to cement screed for compensating and screed work.
Concrete (concrete core activation)
Installation of water-carrying pipe systems in concrete ceilings for thermal building activation.
