Tate’s Underfloor Service Distribution System can play a vital role in improving the sustainability of a building. Energy savings are be realized through the use of a low pressure underfloor plenum which uses natural convection to cool only the occupied space. Underfloor service distribution reduces the amount of materials need to deliver key services to the location of the occupants, and promotes the continual reuse of materials throughout a buildings useful life.

Access floors offer a completely flexible and adaptive method for service distribution so your facility can react quickly to new technologies or organizational changes with minimal down time and disruption to the occupants. In addition, the use of underfloor air distribution improves indoor air quality and personal comfort control while enabling the building design to easily incorporate additional daylighting and ventilation effectiveness. These high performance characteristics help access floors improve the building occupants quality of life.
