LEGALETT Foundation Radiant Floor Heating System
The Air-Heated LEGALETT Foundation Pipes are cast into the concrete slab through which warm air is circulated through a heating unit. With the aid of a fan, the warm air travels through the pipes heating up the whole floor/foundation.
The foundation is the engineered structural concrete slab. It floats on a double layer of rigid polystyrene. It rests on a well-drained layer of crushed stone. The Slab On Grade design is engineered for frost protection.

Kama Building Systems
kama Energy Efficient Building Systems, Inc. is pleased to announce the newest addition to our current “green” product line of energy efficient structural insulated panels which are not ‘sandwiched’ panels. The kama-EEBS™ Structural Roof and Floor Panel (kama-EEBS SRF Panel™) offering even greater cost savings and energy efficiency for commercial and residential builders, developers and homeowners seeking to build “green”. The kama-EEBS SRF Panel™ provides a superior insulated roof and floor system with fewer structural components with the same ease of installation and benefits of the our standard kama-EEBS™ Panel. “This newest addition to our existing product line now makes it a reality for the entire building envelope to be built with kama-EEBS™ Panels,” said owner Ken Miller. “Our new proprietary stud design offers greater free spans of up to 16 feet while maintaining our high R Values and STC Ratings.” The kama-EEBS SRF Panel™ may assist in reducing the number of trusses, purlins, rafters, floor joints, TJI’s and other structural members required in a building project, thereby offering additional reduction in construction time and additional savings in construction costs. All kama-EEBS™ Panels are 100% recyclable, custom fabricated to designed specifications and are without design limitations resulting in greater versatility. Arched roofs, arched windows, curved walls and other complex designs have never been easier or more material efficient. “We are proud to use Styropor® expanded polystyrene in all kama-EEBS™ Panels which is GreenGuard Certified for superior indoor air quality,” continued Miller “And, the C2C assessment by MBDC (McDonough Braungart Design Chemistry) states that Styropor® EPS is ‘suited for circulating in a cradle-to-cradle lifecycle as a technical nutrient.’ An essential component to our commitment to contribute to the world in a positive way by building with the environment in mind.” kama Energy Efficient Building Sytems, Inc. custom fabricates “green”, energy efficient structural insulated panels, for both commercial and residential building.
