Heating and cooling in all areas of construction
This pioneer offers freedom in spatial design irrespective of the heat source
The MULTIBETON company is a production and retail company
for underfloor heating systems. As the first supplier of surface
heating systems, this manufacturer's systems have developed
continually and have successfully held their own in the
market since the 1960s.
Residential community near Bonn am
Rhein/Germany
Several million residential
units have been
equipped with modern
and economical
MULTIBETON underfloor
heating since the end of
the 1960s.
Pipe production is subject
to continual inspection
and monitoring by the
German TÜV (Technical
Inspection Association)
and other independent European testing authorities.
Two well-known academics in the fields of radiant technology
and physics, Dr. A. Kollmar (known as the Pope of Heating)
and Prof. Heinz Haber (known as the TV Professor) have maintained
an innovative and successful collaboration with
MULTIBETON, and joint patents are shared with the radiantheating
expert Dr. A.
Kollmar.
MULTIBETON, a pioneer,
exclusively develops,
designs, produces and
sells surface heating and
cooling systems for its
partners in the specialist
heating business around
the world.
MULTIBETON's decades
of development, research and experience guarantee that
MULTIBETON systems can heat and cool in all areas of construction,
whether new or old buildings, indoors or outdoors.
The systems are compatible with any heat source. Their very
low flow temperature is a requirement for condensing boiler
technology, solar energy, heat pumps, etc, and is therefore
ideal for these technologies.
Industrial building in Germany
Residential building in Tunisia
All types of materials, such as
tiles, stone, carpet, laminate
or parquet, are also available
when selecting floorings.
Heating that is as invisible as
MULTIBETON underfloor
heating provides ideal conditions
for free architectural
designs. Large window fronts,
several levels, economic
room divisions in exclusive
buildings and large buildings:
all of these are possible, as
heating elements never get
in the way. So your own
home in particular can be
3
continually updated.
Think, too, of your children,
who often crawl and play on
the floor. A warm floor is not
only pleasant, but there are
also no sharp or protruding
edges from heating systems
that may represent a danger
to small children when playing.
A clear reduction in house-dust Werner Regh
mites in carpets, compared to conventional heating systems,
is also important when small children are in contact with the
floor.
But MULTIBETON systems
are not only for heating:
an underfloor heating
Aquapark in Poland
system with MB modulation
(a way of laying the
heating pipes) is also suitable
as a system for surface
cooling through the
floor. The additional
source of energy for cooling
is economical both to purchase and operate. The existing
MB heating-pipe system is used simultaneously for cooling.
Twice the use for the
same price!
In our proven underfloor
heating, the greatest
output is achieved using
MB modulation, particularly
in areas around
windows, counteracting Villa in Eifel/Germany
the greatest incidence of
cold. In the case of surface cooling, you also have the greatest
output: in this case cooling performance in the area of
exterior walls/windows,
thus counteracting the
greatest incidence of
heat.
The combination of
heating and cooling
Restaurant in Italy
makes the MULTIBETON
system particularly economical,
as the heating
partner can offer a dual
system from the start
that also makes great savings in energy and costs. In this
case, the MULTIBETON system thus has two functions, but
everything else remains the same when it comes to installing
the underfloor heating.
Ask your MULTIBETON specialists about it. They will select
the right economical MULTIBETON system for you.

Editorial

"Underfloor heating by MULTIBETON is still making everything cosy and warm
after 31 years, without any faults!"
An interview with Rosemarie Grüger-Oswald from Berlin
As Chief Editor, I used the opportunity of an interview with
Ms Grüger-Oswald to find out about her long-term experiences
at first hand, and to pass these on as reasons that can
be used for even more successful marketing of our products.
Thomas Marr (TM): Thank you very much for the photos of
your house. The "historical photo" - when was that taken?
Rosemarie Grüger-Oswald (RGO): That was taken in 1980,
when we still had the old 10-cell solar installation. We renewed
that in 2002. Now it's just 2 cells, providing the same
performance.
TM: You had solar heat and underfloor heating from the very
beginning. That must have been pioneering work back in
1980?
RGO: Too right: we had problems with the countryside protection
authorities due to the solar installation; underfloor
heating was not approved at that time, and finally in the
building approval everything was taken apart and meticulously
examined. Neither was it simple with the manufacturer
of the prefabricated house: Okal interrupted work on the
site; the heating surfaces were fitted, and then Okal continued
with work on site.
TM: How did you come across MULTIBETON?
RGO: During the planning phase, my husband got to know a
heating installation company in the Berlin area. They had a
pioneering spirit and were convinced of the superiority of
MULTIBETON surface heating. At that time, my husband´s
company had installed this type of heating in a kindergarten
and had also gained some initial experience of MB wall
heating systems. They inspired my husband, and finally also
convinced me, because for years I had had nightmares about
underfloor heating systems turning into sprinklers. The idea
wasn't very well received by our friends, and you mustn't
forget that we were building in West Berlin: everything had
to be transported from West Germany through the GDR.
TM: Looking back over 31 years of use, what were the main
advantages of your MULTIBETON underfloor heating system?
RGO: First and foremost is the feel-good factor: the pleasant
feeling, the subjective sensation of warmth, the feeling of
being warmer. In my job as a midwife, I've gone into many
different apartments, and I've always found those with underfloor
heating to be the most pleasant.
And I know what I'm talking about at my age and in my job:
you live more healthily with this sort of heating.
And what mustn't be forgotten is that this heating saves an
immense amount of money!
TM: What heat sources have you used?
RGO: Electricity; it's only ever been electricity. Many people
I've mentioned this to have shaken their heads in disbelief:
electricity, the most expensive energy of all. But that's due to
the insular position of West Berlin. During the day, households,
industry and transport used electricity, and at night,
the power-stations couldn't simply switch off, so a lot was
done using night-storage heaters. We have a system by
Stiebel Eltron with six tanks, which are heated up at night as
4
a buffer. Vattenfall call it electric storage-heater current and
it's allocated by radio.
TM: Ideally, you have got records of your heating costs?
RGO: Of course. Let's take last year (2010/11), as the winter
was particularly cold and long: 10,984 kW/h at 12 cents per
kW/h is € 1,318.08 for hot water and heating a home of 140
m², all using technology from 1981.
TM: What was the maximum flow temperature?
RGO: Never above 40 °C. It took some time to get the heating
set up correctly.
TM: Are all your rooms equipped with underfloor heating?
RGO: Yes, almost all. Converted loft, ground floor and basement,
totalling 135 m², and the remaining 5 m² is a hobby
room.
TM: What is the house made of? Did you provide additional
insulation?
RGO: The house is still just as Okal delivered it: timber-frame
walls, rock wool, wall boards, double-glazed windows with
"PARSOL bronze" coating against overheating in summer. No
changes were ever necessary.
TM: What do you find cosiest in particular?
RGO: All the tiled floors, particularly the hall area; shoes for
outdoors are warmed up, and when you get home it is immediately
cosy. The carpeted rooms are also just right.
TM: Would you build again using MULTIBETON, and if so,
why?
RGO: Yes, always. There are no radiators taking up space,
which young children burn themselves on, which you have to
clean and then replace when they leak, and which slowly turn
the wall and ceiling dark. Even our cat is happy. Children can
play on the floor in the winter without us having to put a
blanket down. And don't forget that MB underfloor heating
goes well with heat pumps. Our heating installer confirmed
that, when we asked him about an air-water heat pump.
TM: Yes, you have ideal conditions for a heat pump: a large
heating area and a low flow temperature because of that.
Current photo of the house and Ms Grüger-Oswald

You'd consume less electricity
because you would be making
additional use of environmental
heat. And even today you should
be taking climate change into
account. Temperatures will become
more extreme in both directions.
A reversible heat pump
can both heat and cool, and your
MULTIBETON underfloor heating
system can do the same. It's a
purchase that works both ways,
and the conditions here are very
good.
RGO: That sounds very good.
Thank you for your advice. We
can ideally reuse your heating.
TM: MULTIBETON News repeatedly
covers the issue of the connection
between efficiency, surface
heating and cooling, reversible
heat pumps and climate change. If your preferred heating
installer would like some information, we would be happy to
send him some material. Ms Grüger-Oswald, on behalf of
MULTIBETON I would like to offer my warmest thanks for the
Heat pump compass

Ideal heat pumps for surface
heating and cooling
Source: Heat Pump Guide by Alpha-InnoTec
In Germany, a good quarter of final energy is consumed in
private households. A good three-quarters of this is used for
heating rooms. Economical, environmentally-friendly heating
systems can really lower our private energy consumption and
the costs associated with this.
Energy consumption in private homes
Cooling, freezing 3 %
Other equipment 4.5 %
Hot water 11 %
Washing, cooking, dishwashing 2.5%
Heating 78 %
Light 1 %
From the figures, we can clearly see what we are really paying
("Final energy paid for by customer") when using various
heating systems: heat pumps take 80 % of the usable energy
from the environment, so it's free of charge. We only pay for
the electricity - unlike oil central heating. Here, for 100 %
usable energy, we pay 138 % in heating oil costs. In the case
of primary energy consumption, it looks even worse: 79 for
heat pumps, compared to 163 for oil. Here on the heat pump
side, the power plant itself consumes the most electricity.
We can assume that this value will fall continuously through
technical advancement, which will further improve the overall
balance.

Heat without combustion - this is where the function of heat
pumps gets to the heart of the matter. This principle should
be given closer consideration here in order to clarify the
differences from standard boilers: in addition to an energy
connection, heat pumps also require a heat source (earth/
water/air). The flow temperatures are limited to 55 °C or
65 °C, and are ideally 35 °C to 40 °C. Here, flow temperatures
that are 1 °C higher mean operating costs that are approx.
2.5 % higher. Surface heating systems work most economically
at just these flow temperatures. They also produce the
best performance figures. These describe the ratio of
emitted thermal output to electrical power consumption,
and are thus a measure of the effectiveness of the heat
pump.
The effectiveness of the total installation over the year is
described by the seasonal performance factor:
Seasonal performance factor = Heating energy/input drive
energy
The smaller the difference between the flow and heatsource
temperatures, the better the energy efficiency ratio.

Elegant, quiet and efficient: Junkers presents the new Supraeco SAO-1
air-/water-source heat pump for external installation
For more than 100 years, Junkers – a brand of Bosch thermal
technology – has been offering smart solutions for individual
comfort. Junkers is active in 16 mainly European countries
with a wide range of resource-conserving heating and hotwater
solutions. With efficient and forward-looking products
such as gas and oil condensing boilers combined with solar
installations, electric heat pumps and solid-fuel boilers, Junkers
is relying increasingly on the use of renewable energies.
Because all Junkers components are ideally tailored to each
other, they are easy to install and convenient to use.
With its discreet design, the new Supraeco SAO-1 air-/water
-source heat pump fits well into any environment. However,
Junkers has not only changed the appearance of the heat
pump for external installation - there have also been some
changes in the interior: thanks to new compressors and an
optimized refrigeration cycle, the SAO-1 saves even more
energy when working than did the previous generation. Optimized
evaporator surfaces allow the best possible use of
energy – and do it reliably down to -20 °C. The device has a
high COP value (Coefficient of Performance) of up to 3.7 (at
+2/35 °C to EN 14511).
The Bosch thermal technology brand offers the Supraeco
SAO-1 in three different ratings: 8.5, 11.5 and 13.5 kilowatts
(at +2/35 °C to EN 14511). This guarantees efficient hotwater
provision at a high level of hot-water comfort: the
flow temperature is up to 63 °C. Thanks to a three-stage
speed-regulated fan, intelligent vibration isolation and noise
-optimized ventilators, the heat pump works very quietly. An
optional adjustable whisper-mode can be activated for additional
noise reduction – for example, for hot-water operation
at night in the summer. Compared to the previous model,
the 13.5 kW device is up to 8 dB(A) quieter. For optimal
operating comfort, Junkers also offers a new roomtemperature
controller with an LCD display.
The thermal technology specialists from Wernau have also
come up with something better in the range of control functions;
the SEC 10-1 control unit is available as an accessory
for flexible system solutions. Thanks to the new DPC
(Dynamic Pump Control) function for controlling temperature
differences of the primary circuit pump, the heat pump

always works at the optimal operating point – reducing electricity
consumption. In addition, with the DPC, simple timesaving
commissioning is possible without manual presetting
of the primary circuit pump.
Furthermore, the Junkers range also includes a reworked
ACM-1 combi-module with a factory-integrated SEC 10-1
control and DPC function for the primary circuit pump for
use in combination with the Supraeco SAO-1. Because the
module is equipped with two class-A energy-efficient circulation
pumps, the Supraeco SAO-1 and ACM-1 duo save even
more energy. Thanks to compact dimensions, the combimodule
only requires a footprint of around 70 x 70 centimetres.
Important components such as hot-water and buffer
tanks, an infinitely-variable auxiliary heater, and the expansion
tank are also already integrated. Assembly is quick and
easy; for example, the pipe can be connected from the top
to the rear, the right or the left. Junkers offers two variants
of this module: the ACM 200-1 with a 185-litre capacity hotwater
tank and 80-litre capacity buffer tank, as well as the
ACM 300-1 with a 286-litre capacity hot-water tank and 120litre
capacity buffer tank.

Consolar is presenting its new generation of SOLAERA solar
heating: a 20 percent reduction in costs and four times as
much solar energy
Frankfurt am Main, 29 June 2011 – Solar installation manufacturer
Consolar is presenting its next generation of SOLAE-
RA solar heating. SOLAERA is the full-supply solar heating
system with the highest energy yield and the smallest area
requirement on the market. This means that, compared to
standard solar heat collectors, the new SOLAERA hybrid collectors
produce up to four times as much energy, even in the
crucial winter months of November to February. Due to their
mode of operation downstream of a combined heat pump,
the collectors generate 50 percent more energy than standard
collectors. This is in addition to the heat that is drawn
from the ambient air through a fitted fan. In the case of an
installation with a collection area of 25 square metres, for
example, this results in a quadrupling of heat. This is a technological
advance that has never before been achieved, and
which is setting standards even with regard to the planned
energy turnaround.
Lower costs and the smallest possible space requirement on
the roof and in the cellar
In addition to its above-average energy efficiency, the new
generation of SOLAERA solar heating is also cost effective. In
future, customers will be able to save 20 percent on investment
costs. The full SOLAERA system only takes up a small
amount of space, which is important, particularly for small or
unfavourably aligned roofs. This means that the Consolar
solar installation supplies an entire home with heat, and for
this only requires the smallest collection area of all current
solar installations on the market. With only five collectors
and a collection area of 14 square metres, a new build or a
well-renovated old building can be provided with heat for hot
water and heating all year round. Up until now, eight collectors
(21 square metres of collection area) have been the minimum
requirement. Even in the cellar, the space requirement
is small. A footprint of 3 x 1.2 metres is sufficient for accommodating
the energy centre and the SOLAERA heat store.
Valuable storage spaced is saved, compared to biomass systems
or oil-fired boilers, and the house will not need an additional
chimney.

SOLAERA - SOLAR HEATING FOR
YOUR HOME
No earthworks or installations in the garden, and
more efficient than heat pumps
A SOLAERA does not require either the erection of air
equipment (evaporators) or earthworks (probes) in the
garden. The Consolar system procures 100% of the
required heat through its new hybrid collectors. Even
in cold outdoor temperatures, when the need for heat
is high, standard thermal pumps need a great deal of
electricity. This solar heating takes advantage of the
fact that the sun generally shines during the day under
such weather conditions. Then SOLAERA works particularly
efficiently, which is apparent to householders in the
form of lower electricity bills.
Very low electricity consumption contributes to climate
protection
The SOLAERA full-supply system saves electricity and reduces
environmentally-hazardous CO2 emissions to a minimum
through an intelligent combination of solar and environmental
heat. A SOLAERA installation with eleven collectors will
fall below the target of a maximum of 10 kg of CO2 emissions
per square metre of living space per year for a maximum
global warming of 2°C. By comparison, conventional heating
systems, such as air- and ground-source heat pump systems,
oil or gas heating generate 50 to 150 percent more CO2
emissions.
Training in the energy-efficient use of SOLAERA
As the leading manufacturer of highly-efficient solar installations,
Consolar offers regular training sessions in Frankfurt
and Lörrach, where the SOLAERA solar installation, its possible
applications, planning criteria and specific features and
benefits are comprehensively presented. Dates can be found
on the Consolar website at www.consolar.de.

FeisTec has a top-class condensing boiler
FeisTec has worked nationally and internationally since 2008.
We specialize in systems and individual components for
heating, solar installations and regenerative energies. We can
modify existing products to meet your requirements.
We develop, construct and produce. Our professional employees
are happy to help. Our strengths lie in new developments
through to serial production.
At FeisTec, we always put the customer first.
A top-class condensing boiler
The new condensing boiler represents a further development
of the best, proven, conventional oil-fired boiler with aboveaverage
efficiency. Its stainless-steel construction guarantees
corrosion-free operation, thus extending its service life by
years.
What is special?
New routes are being followed in boiler construction with an
ingenious system of flue-gas control and special heatexchange
surfaces. Thanks to these technologies, efficiency
can be improved to previously impossible values. Thanks to
these modifications, there is no need for an additional boiler
pump with return temperature controller and flue-gas ventilator.
All of the important areas can also be easily accessed
and are easy to clean for chimney sweeps. Thanks to the highquality
stainless-steel construction, rapeseed oil can be
burned without any worries. This is special, because these
non-saturated fatty acids are very aggressive and attack conventional
constructions. A long service life is guaranteed for
this boiler.
During the test phase, trials were run at temperatures from
Company headquarters of FeisTec GmbH in Ingersheim
50/30°C to 80/60°C in various partial loads. In all of the values
confirmed in the test report, the lowest degrees of efficiency
in the partial load range of 30% were 96.4%! Such values
made people sit up and take notice, and were very welcome
in these times of high oil prices. Thanks to the good partial
load values, considerable amounts of oil can be saved with a
replacement boiler.
9
Benefits for installation
The easily accessible connections and the flue-gas outflow
from the top reduce spatial requirements to a minimum.
When combined with a hot-water cylinder, no additional
space is required. Operators additionally profit from low oil
consumption, which they can adjust themselves using sophisticated
yet easy-to-operate electronics. With all of these benefits,
the boiler price is only slightly higher than that of a conventional
boiler. These additional costs will be quickly offset
by the lower costs for energy. This innovation additionally
reduces both damage to the environment and operating
costs.
It is unlikely that there will be a turning away from oil-fired
heating in the foreseeable future. Rather, when fitting a new
oil-fired boiler, only the most economical will be good
enough. In Switzerland and Germany, the largest number of
boilers is installed in the range up to 50 kW, which operate
almost solely in the partial load range. Great quantities of oil
can be saved in this area of use using the new condensing
boiler by FeisTec compared to non-condensing boilers.

New future for the village church
in Malchow
by Christoph Kämper, photos: Bernd Heinrich
In the 13th century, a village church was constructed from
rubble stones in Malchow on today's B 109 road, half way
between Berlin and Rostock. It was given a framed tower in
the Baroque period. After 700 years of use as a church, the
last service was held in 1958, after which it entered years of
decay.
In 2003, the nave threatened to fall in, but this was prevented
by emergency stabilization. In the following years,
possible uses were discussed with external consultants, architects,
constructional engineers, theologians and communication
experts, which led to a concept for a venue, providing
space for the lively community life of Malchow. So, from the
ruins, the church-music centre for the "International Malchow
Church Prize" will arise, promoting musical education
for children and young people. Participants from as far afield
as Poland and Latvia have registered for this competition,
which has been held since 2009.
A labyrinth park is being constructed in front of the choir of
the church, in order to make the church more attractive. This
includes various labyrinthine gardens and mazes, including
one made of old rubble stones and gravestones in a pattern
modelled on that of the cathedral in Reims in France. The
labyrinth park will be supplemented by, and will benefit from
meditative and psychotherapeutic facilities. A stone labyrinth
is also let into the heated floor of the church, constructed by
Hungarian students during a workshop under the leadership
of Prof. Onodi from Gödöllö. The individual stones of the labyrinth
were symbolically sold in a "Stones for the Star" campaign
to raise additional funds for the restoration project. As
a sponsor, MULTIBETON purchased stone no. 38.
Using the utilization concept, the client, the parochial church
council of Göritz/Malchow, was able to obtain the necessary
financial backers for the restoration for a planned total of €
860,000: the Deutsche Stiftung Denkmalschutz (German
Foundation for the Protection of Historical Monuments) was
involved, as well as the Dorfkirchenfonds (Funds for Village
Churches), the state of Brandenburg, the local authority of
Göritz, the administrative district of Uckermark, the Evangelical
Church Circuit of Uckermark, the Evangelical Church of
Berlin-Brandenburg-Silesian Oberlausitz, the Society for the
Promotion of Old Churches in Berlin-Brandenburg e. V., the
Sparkasse savings bank in Uckermark and private donors. The
concept also won over the Stiftung zur Bewahrung kirchlicher
Baudenkmäler (Foundation for the Protection of Historical
Church Monuments), which awarded the Community Prize
for Church Uses of Exemplary Character 2011 to the parish
and the planning office of ALV-Architekten in Angermünde, in
association with up to € 10,000 for establishing an open
church in the labyrinth.
So the roof structure and roof were able to be initially restored,
then the interior was tackled. Wall paintings were found
under the old plaster, which had to be recorded first of all. In
January 2012, Ninnemann & Postier GmbH from Schönfeld
installed an MB 17 screed system calculated by the Ergo Sun
planning office in Prenzlau over an area of 144 m², and 1250
m of MB 17 Euro System pipes were laid. A heat pump was
used as the thermal source. MULTIBETON underfloor heating
is ideal for churches with their high ceilings: here, a thermal

systems, would not be able to provide the level required.
Heating located under the large area of flooring, on the other
hand, means that the heat starts down below where people
are, and extends slowly upwards. There is no need to heat
the air up high under the ceiling in a way that eats energy.

Underfloor heating in Cologne
Cathedral
by Christoph Kämper
Cologne's cathedral, symbol of this city on the Rhine near
the headquarters of MULTIBETON, offers not only a climb to
the top of the southern tower and tours of the cathedral's
treasure chamber, but also another global highlight for interested
visitors: regular guided tours through the "cathedral
underground".
View of the tile pillars, which stand on the sub-floor at regular intervals. The
upper end of the pillar is formed by several square stone slabs that increase
in size, and on which the heated floor rests.
Since World War II, almost the entire floor of the cathedral
has been excavated piece by piece, and now rests on a retrofitted
concrete floor. Archaeologists came across the remains
of Roman buildings, graves and relics from the "old"
cathedral in Cologne, which had to give way to the "new"
cathedral, step by step, after its foundation stone was laid in
1248, and even the remains of a hole dug for casting a bell
Structure and mode of operation of a hypocaust: Flue gases and air heated
by the fire flow along the underside of the floor, and heat both the floor and
the walls of the vertical flues (tubuli). The gases escape into the open air
though the flues and provide circulation.

and the remains of the
Late Gothic construction
road, which led through
the Roman city walls to
the construction site of the
cathedral.
In the Roman period, villas
stood here on the edge of
the lower terrace of the
Rhine, and possibly also
hot springs and administrative
buildings. A few
mosaics still remain from
the villas, particularly the Christoph Kämper
Dionysus Mosaic, which
can be seen today in the Roman-Germanic Museum next to
the cathedral, as well as a hypocaust on the north side, deep
under the cathedral. This early form of underfloor heating
was widespread in Roman times, where warm air was directed
under the living rooms and thus, as a precursor to
MULTIBETON, provided cosy conditions back in the 2nd century.
The building probably remained standing until the old
cathedral was constructed in the 9th century.
On a mortar screed, the pillars, made of round and square
tiles, can be seen, which supported a floor made of larger
tiles. On the right edge of the picture, a heating channel can
be seen. At the rear of the picture, the foundation of a mortared
column of the cathedral can be seen; the white walls
are modern excavation subdivisions for securing the cathedral.
During the Roman period, many residential buildings of wellto-do
citizens were equipped with underfloor heating. The
principle is the same as in modern underfloor heating: the
warmth felt by the residents is produced primarily through
radiant heat over a large area. Heated floors and flues send
long-wave thermal radiation directly to the surfaces of the
furnishings, and to the clothing and skin of the residents.
Unlike today's accurate calculation of the heating surfaces
and temperatures required, which are individual for each
building project, the Romans simply adapted the working
principles of Mediterranean house walls to cold northern
Europe: when the sun is high, the roof overhangs protect the
outer walls from the thermal radiation of the sun, and the
wall and house remain cool. At colder times of the year, the
sun is low and reaches the outer wall, which it warms, and
which then in turn warms the interior of the building
through radiant heat. As the sun is rarely seen in winter in
northern Europe, the Roman builders additionally heated
floors and walls through fire, using the convection of warm
air.

The crux with the
lower back,
part 2
-
-
-
In the first part of my article “The crux with the lower back” I
described the common sources and consequences of chronic
spinal column pain as well as therapeutic approaches to specifically
treat this problem.
In addition to obligatory exercise therapy, attention should
also be paid to regenerative aspects in the treatment of back
problems, since it is imperative that stress on the axial skeleton
is well balanced.
Based on the physiological principle of sleep, the reduction of
strain on and regeneration of the active and passive locomotor
apparatus basically occurs during the night.
Therefore, I wish to outline the influence of individual sleeping
habits in this second article and demonstrate how you can
actually do something for your back “while sleeping” by taking
a few aspects into consideration.
Many of my “back patients” often tell me during their first
visit that they suffer from back pain early in the morning –
and quite often while still lying in bed.
This should not be the case!
If sleep intensifies the pain instead of relieving it, it is important
to get to the root of the cause.
This is the reason why I always ask my patients the following
three questions first:
1. Which sleeping position do you most commonly use?
2. What is the size of your pillow, and what is it made of?
3. How hard is your mattress?
The aspects behind these questions are:
The sleeping position
-
-
your front forces the lumbar
spine into a harmful
hollow back position – already
described in the first
part of this article – that is
commonly referred to as
hyperlordosis. This is even
more profound if the
sleeper has positioned a
pillow underneath his/her
head and upper body.
As a result, sleeping on
your front puts more pressure
on your spine, causing
increased pain.
The pillow
Guest article
In contrast to pillows in other countries, a “German pillow” is
usually 80x80 cm. This size of pillow is, physiologically speaking,
not only inappropriate, but also bad for your back. In a
standard two-metre long bed, a pillow of this size only leaves
120 cm of space for the entire torso, measured from the
shoulder girdle to the feet.
With a few exceptions, this is insufficient space for an averaged
sized person.
What is the result? Unless you spend the night in the socalled
“foetus position”, you have to – in order to have your
shoulders on the mattress and not on the pillow – either fold
the pillow in half or roll it up into a sort of parcel. However, if
the pillow unfolds during the night, you will be forced to
sleep in an uncomfortable and non-physiological position

with parts of your upper body resting on the pillow. Subsequently,
the pillow no longer achieves its main purpose of
supporting the natural curve in the spine by ensuring that
your head does not drop past your shoulders while you are
asleep.
The only sleeping positions that are physiologically feasible The mattress
are the side and – with restrictions – the back position. Sleep- Why not ask yourself a few simple questions: “How much
ing on your front – something patients often tell me they do – time does it usually take to choose a new car? How much
causes you to turn your head in order to breathe. This turning money are you prepared to spend on a new car? How much
of the head puts your spine out of alignment, “twisting” your time will you actually spend each day in this new vehicle
entire spine right down to your pelvis. Moreover, sleeping on
12
compared to the time you spend in bed?”

Allow me to spell it out for you: statistically speaking, we
spend a third of our lives in bed. But we are quite prepared
to spend several thousand euros every few years on a car just
for special features, such as a metallic finish or aluminium
wheel rims. In comparison, how much time and money do we
invest when choosing a new mattress on which we will spend
between five and eight hours each night?
Do you, as a possible sufferer of back pain, really believe that
a quick trip to your local discount mattress store, listening to
all the spin from the salesperson and having a quick test is
good enough?
I know this comparison is a little simplistic, but it does illustrate
important points.
And although it is recommended to replace a mattress about
every eight years, some mattresses remain in use for up to 20
years. Yet the purchase of a suitable mattress could be the
key to alleviating back pain!
So the next question is: What can you do? What do I recommend
if you can relate to one of the points above?
Your sleeping position
Try sleeping in a back-friendly position even if it is initially
difficult and unusual. From a physiological point of view, the
side position is the most favourable. It guarantees easy
breathing, a natural alignment of the spine and by slightly
bending the legs even enables a “reduction of hyperlordosis”,
taking pressure off the lumbar spine.
The back position, as the second best sleeping position, does
not offer this opportunity. Furthermore, if you are prone to
snoring, beware of sleeping on your back, as it can decrease
the supply of oxygen to the body and stop your partner from
getting a good night’s rest.
As previously explained, sleeping on your front is not recommendable
at all.
Your pillow
Use a smaller rectangular pillow, preferably one which is
40x80 cm. A viscoelastic foam pillow is highly recommendable.
However, it does not need to have an ergonomic design.
Some people find an anatomically shaped neck rest better,
while others prefer a traditional “box shape”. Seek the advice
of a specialist retailer, as it is important that your pillow is
suited to your mattress. Allow plenty of time to test and compare
different pillows and mattresses.
It will also take a little time before you forget your old
“favourite” pillow and get used to the new one. The first few
nights may feel strange, but do not despair. You will soon
become accustomed to it! Humans are creatures of habit,
and, as the old saying goes, “good things take time”.
Your mattress
And last but not least, a mattress is the foundation for a relaxing
and healthy night’s sleep. On the one hand it has to be
soft enough to avoid pressure points developing. And on the
other hand it must support your body in a relaxing sleeping
position.
I believe that two types of mattress currently satisfy these
13
demands. They are cold foam mattresses made of viscoelastic
material and water beds. I prefer the latter version, as
they not only mould naturally to the body’s contours providing
excellent support, but also provide many other benefits.
They are heated, allowing the temperature to be set to individual
requirements, and this warmth promotes relaxation
and blood flow in tired muscles. A water bed is also better
than a traditional mattress in terms of hygiene. People who
are allergic to house dust mites profit greatly from the simple
way the top cover can be cleaned in a washing machine, thus
preventing dust mite infestation. And, not surprisingly, the
actual core of the mattress, in comparison to a traditional
mattress, cannot become home to these “unwanted guests”.
And despite all the tales you may have heard, you will not
get seasick. A specialist retailer will also be able to reassure
you that the weight of the bed will not damage your house
or flat by causing the floor to sag.
It is still difficult to assess the benefits of air beds, which are
not only popular in clinical environments nowadays.
But one thing is sure: you will notice the difference. A
mattress that provides you with a relaxing sleeping position
helps to prevent “tossing and turning” at night, while allowing
you to fall into a deeper sleep and to wake up with more
energy.
The following is important when buying the “right” mattress:
Pressure relief mattress, source: www.tempur.de.
seek the qualified advice of a specialist retailer and take
plenty of time to test and compare different mattresses.
Obviously, I have only been able to give you a brief insight
into the complex problem of back pain in my two articles
“The crux with the lower back”. More is unfortunately not
possible on these few pages. However, I have hopefully been
able to “shed a little light” on this subject, to dispel some old
myths and to provide you with some helpful tips on how to
find a cure to your back problems.
Until next time ... stay healthy … and keep moving!

The transparent living room is warmed in both summer and winter through solar
radiation. Whilst warm air exits through the electrically-operated protrusions in
summer, cool air (warm air in winter) is supplied through an underfloor heating
system operated using a heat pump.
AK3 is a one-family home that rises above the landscape
from a relatively small plot of land on a hillside, offering

(in the parents' wing: bedroom, bathroom,

unobserved by the residents.
The protrusions above the glass house have
been grouped so that the communal terrace
is visually screened from the residential
buildings opposite. But they also have an
energy function: like Persian windcatchers,
they work as natural ventilators (the windows
can be electrically operated from any
location in the house) and, in association
with the heat pump, which can be switched
to cooling in the summer, this means that no
air conditioning is required. In its first winter,
when the external temperature was at -
16°C, the heating often switched itself off automatically as
solar radiation had warmed the house sufficiently.
This extroversion was desired by the clients from the start, as
they wanted a large living room where all types of communal
activity could take place, such as cooking, eating, dancing,
playing, etc., and which would make it possible for them to
receive guests. At the same time, they expressed a desire for
intimate rooms of retreat, where each family member could
find their own peace. Thus the glass house was penetrated by
two hermetic wedges – the children's and parents' wings - View from the lower slope over the AK3 with podium and glass house

Presenting partner companies:
Siegmund Haustechnik GmbH
WATER - SOLAR - THERMAL - WELLBEING
by Thomas Marr
In our magazine "The Energy-Saver's Friend", we regu-
larly report on our partners. In this issue, we would like
to present the company Siegmund Haustechnik GmbH
from Remagen am Rhein. Oliver Siegmund took time to
tell us about his company.
Siegmund Haustechnik GmbH is a specialist company
for building services and technology with over 36 years
of experience in the market. It has five employees.
There are currently two trainees in the company.
MULTIBETON surface heating and cooling systems are
frequently installed by Siegmund Haustechnik GmbH
together with heat pumps by the company JUNKERS
(see page 8). The extremely low flow temperatures, as
are only possible with MB modulation, are ideal for the
heat pumps used, which work extremely efficiently this
way, allowing very low seasonal performance factors.
Oliver Siegmund, himself a master installation and
heating installer, is committed to reliable suppliers in
order to guarantee competence in planning and instal-
lation, and sustainability in the maintenance and care of
his systems and installations. In addition to MULTIBET-
ON, he also chose the JUNKERS company. Even Win-
fried Siegmund, the company's founder and father of
the current boss, chose these companies. The decision
to remain with a few very good suppliers for many
years has always paid off for this specialist fitting com-
pany. The experience gained, product care and a stable
supply of replacement parts over many years are very
important for products with long lives such as heating
installations.
Siegmund Haustechnik GmbH works on three or four
properties each year using MULTIBETON. Oliver Sieg-
mund: "It is a super system; it's very quick and easy to
lay, and is consistent as the pipe is stress-free when put
in place. The quality is so good that we've never had a
claim under guarantee. The MULTIBETON technology
creates the necessary planning documentation for our
properties. They are so detailed, informative and really
get to the heart of the matter, that we, as a relatively
small company, have always been able to beat our com-
petitors to win and carry out unusual orders through
the technical benefits associated with this planning. The
17
AK3 house in Sinzig
(editor's note: reference
property in this issue be-
fore this article) is a good
example of this."
Oliver Siegmund is always
on the search for new
challenges. Whether in
ecological construction
using clay or in the resto-
ration of entire old listed
buildings, he brings all his wealth of experience to the
job. Furthermore, he also works as an expert and TGA
specialist in his subject.
