This paper presents the heat flow model and the experimental test bench developed to optimize a new kind of heating floor. In the first part of the text is described the new kind of high reactivity emitting device for building heating and cooling. The second part illustrates the numerical model developed to evaluate the device efficiency. Finally experimental test bench implementation and results are presented. Both computational and experimental results support the use of colder water in comparison to other heating devices. This implies energy savings for building heating.
