Moderne tecnologie per edifici antichi. Integrazione del sistema impiantistico nel contenitore storico

The requalification of the historical heritage is becoming one of the most interesting themes of the last few years. Several studies on listed buildings show how their negative energy performance influences the overall Italian energy balance. In the energy retrofit of the historical heritage the project has to maintain the building formal complexity: the technological innovation aims to integrate plants distribution system and other necessary components for the building new use. In particular, the design of the plant distribution system has to be careful and sustainable because it represents the most difficult element to integrate in the historical environment. It is possible to design visible or hidden components: in fact the requalification of an historical building offers the possibility of connecting ancient to modern language and allows to achieve similar energy results to new buildings.

Intervenire sul patrimonio storico per migliorarne le prestazioni energetiche non può prescindere da una progettazione sensibile e mirata del sistema impiantistico. E’ necessario valutare caso per caso la compatibilità delle soluzioni progettate, per garantire gli standard abitativi richiesti dalla normativa senza pregiudicare il valore testamentario del contenitore storico.
