Bikram Yoga and Sunnyheat

This test was performed in a Sportsschool in Hilversum Holland.

With Bikram Yoga you need a floor with a temperature of 40 degrees celcius.

In this room (42 square meter) we installed 6 large panels (60cm x 120cm) in a suspended ceiling. The floor was quick step laminate.

After 1 hour of heating up (before the session) ground floor temperatures of 40 degrees were measured.

The power consumption during the first hour was: 6x2000watt, the next hour (during the session) was 6x1000W. In total the consumption was 18kW, which cost a total of 18*15ct = 2 euro 70 ct.

The beauty of the system is that you can group panels, so when you have a small group, you only put on one group, there is no need to heat up the complete room!

Also, the room is not 'stuffy', because no air is being moved around.
