The Challenge: A Cold Hallway
Nestled in Stavanger, Norway, a family house built in 1963 was in need of a modern touch to improve its indoor comfort.
Over the years, the home had retained much of its original structure, but the hallway had become a particularly challenging space. Known for being cold and unwelcoming, the hallway was a daily source of discomfort, especially during Norway's colder months.
The homeowners sought a solution that would seamlessly combine insulation and heating without requiring invasive construction work.
With a wooden floor in place, they were determined to preserve the aesthetic and structural integrity of the house while achieving improved comfort. Furthermore, they needed a system that was efficient, easy to install, and capable of delivering results immediately—key factors for any renovation project in an occupied home.
This balance of modern convenience and respect for the home’s character defined the challenge.

DEVI provided the perfect solution with DEVIcell™ Dry Floor Heating System, a 2-in-1 solution combining insulation and electric floor heating.

The system was installed in a 10 m² area near the doorway, delivering an output of 695 W.
Key products included the DEVIflex™ 10T heating cable, DEVIcell™ Dry insulation boards, and the user-friendly DEVIreg™ Smart thermostat.
The installation was completed within a single day, ensuring minimal disruption to the household.
The Result: A Warm and Inviting Hallway
