Carrera S/C Hydro in-floor water convector
A series for rooms where water can get into the casing: pools, SPA areas, greenhouses, winter gardens. The casing is stainless steel with a drainage hole.
DC 24 V motor

Series features
Stainless casing with a drainage hole
Splashes and condensate do not accumulate in the casing — water goes through the drain, convection is not choked, and the casing does not rust even near chlorinated pool water.
Cassette heat exchanger on anti-vibration mounts
Pulled out for flushing without dismantling the casing — in wet areas this is a routine procedure. The mounts dampen vibration and do not transmit hum to the casing.
Frame with grille included
The S version comes right away with a frame and a decorative perimeter grille — for wet areas we recommend aluminium or stainless metal.
Why an ordinary one won't do by a pool
Chlorinated moisture and splashes eat away a painted casing over time, and water collecting at the bottom chokes convection. In Hydro both problems are closed by design: a stainless casing and a drainage hole through which water goes without accumulating.
Maintenance in a wet area
The cassette heat exchanger on anti-vibration mounts is pulled out for flushing — for pools this is a routine procedure, and it does not require dismantling the casing.
What's included
Features of the convector for rooms with high humidity
The casing of the Carrera Hydro convector has standardised dimensions and an outlet for drainage; available casing heights are 105 and 120 mm (under development). All parts of the convector casing are made of high-quality stainless steel grade AISI 304. Carrera Hydro is designed to work in humid rooms (saunas, swimming pools), which makes this type of convector universal for solving both heating and cooling tasks in various environmental conditions. The casing provides for connection to the heating system from 3 sides, as well as drainage discharge through an end opening in the casing; the free openings are closed with plastic sealed end caps to prevent moisture or solution from entering during the screed around the convector. Adjusting bolts are installed at the ends, with the ability to adjust the height within 40 mm, for the convenience of levelling the appliance during installation. Universal for solving both heating and cooling tasks in various environmental conditions.
Two-tube copper-aluminium heat exchanger
The Carrera Hydro series is fitted with two-tube heat exchangers using a copper tube 22 mm in diameter with a wall thickness of 1 mm. Every heat exchanger undergoes testing and outgoing inspection at the factory. It is made of high-quality components (copper and aluminium) from European manufacturers. The compact and well-thought-out design of the heat exchanger makes it possible to provide heat to a fairly large room area with a minimum convector width. It also acts as stiffening ribs thanks to the cassette design of the heat exchanger mounts and supports, and it is easily removed when disassembly or servicing is required.
A simple solution to complex tasks
Thanks to anti-vibration inserts in the cassette mounts of the heat exchanger and the convector casing, the Hydro models are completely silent and easy to install as well as to operate. The convenient heat exchanger mounts make it easy to remove and service the convector. The Hydro series comes with 1-2 or more heat exchangers, which makes it possible to efficiently increase the heat output for warming rooms of any kind.
Advanced technologies and design in the heating system
The S model is equipped with a removable frame that covers the joint between the convector and the floor, as well as a grille of your choice; the C model comes with a grille, without the option of subsequently fitting a frame.
The Carrera collection of grilles and sets offers a wide choice of grille types and finishing options for your interior.

Frequently asked questions
Can Hydro go in an ordinary room?
It can, but there is no point overpaying for a stainless casing and drainage — for dry rooms there are S/C 90 and S/C 120 with the same outputs.
Which grille for wet areas?
Aluminium or stainless metal. We do not fit wood in wet areas — moisture warps it.
