Uponor radiant heating and cooling systems, along with hydronic snow and ice melting solutions, were installed in a 40-story high-rise in downtown Montréal, home to the National Bank of Canada headquarters. Designed to support sustainability and occupant well-being, the project features radiant systems on the main commercial floor and across three parking ramps, alongside energy-efficient building technologies.

Challenge
Align high-performance building requirements and construction schedules to include efficient, sustainable occupant comfort in the main lobby along with safer, easier snow removal on the parking ramps.

Solution
Uponor radiant systems supported efficient installation through coordinated design and layout planning aligned with the concrete pour schedule. This integrated approach extends to a hydronic snow and ice melting system across three parking ramps, eliminating the need for snow removal while improving vehicle safety in winter conditions.

Sustainability
Radiant systems support the building’s LEED® Gold certification by improving energy efficiency and occupant comfort. Additional strategies, including energy recovery and hydroelectric heating, help reduce environmental impact.
