  • Patent number: 9163844
    Abstract: A system (1) for controlling the temperature of two zones or rooms (2) of a building comprises apparatus (5) which comprises a housing (9) within which an impeller (12) draws return air from the two rooms (2) through respective small bore return ducts (8) and inlet ports (14) into a common inlet chamber (22). A two zone heat exchanger (20) located in the 43 housing (10) downstream of the impeller (12) defines two mutually isolated flow air heat exchange paths (26) between the impeller (12) and respective outlet ports (15) through which flow air is delivered to the respective rooms (2) through small bore flow ducts (7). Two mutually isolated flow air bypass paths (28) corresponding to the flow air heat exchange paths (26) also communicate the impeller (12) with the respective outlet ports (15).

  • Patent number: 6154606
    Abstract: A radiant heater mounting heating elements in a sealed housing with a ceramic heat transmitting wall. A fan is mounted in the housing to cool the heating elements and in practice provide additional heat. There are also vent assemblies which prevent water such as rainwater or even water from, for example, a hose entering into the heater and causing failure.
