  • the invention aims at providing a method for using the retention device.
  • the invention provides a retention device with the features described in claim 1.
  • This retention device has the advantage that placing thereof on a subsurface and connecting the pipe thereto is very simple and only requires a single person.
  • the retention device according to the present invention can be manufactured as a lightweight product since the two sets of beams yield a relatively large open space in between them. Due to its low weight a single person can handle and place the retention device on a subsurface as required. Such syn ergistic effect is a surprising and advantageous effect.
  • the invention therefore relates to a retention device for im mobilizing a pipe in a building element, preferably for use in a floor heating and / or cooling system, wherein the retention de vice is characterized in that the retention device has a grid shape comprising at least two sets of beams, beams of a first set extending parallelly in a first direction and beams of the second set extending parallelly in another direction, wherein at least some beams are provided with recesses for receiving and retaining at least part of a pipe.
  • all beams are provided with recesses for receiving and retaining at least part of a pipe. It is even more preferred that recesses are provided for example at every other pipe diameter of each pipe.
  • a retention device preferably com prises a first contact surface at a first main side of the device and recesses at an opposite, second side of the device, such that the device can be placed stably on the subsurface (for example a floor) whereas the pipes can be placed afterwards in the recesses, when a single or a multitude of devices are placed on the subsur- face.
  • a firm and stable coupling of the pipe to the retention de vice according to the invention is obtained when at least one of said recesses has an entrance opening to the recess that is small er than the remainder part of said recess.
  • the pipe effectively has a diameter that is somewhat larger than the entrance opening. The pipe thus has to be pushed through the entrance opening to wards the recess after which the pipe is retained within the re cess by the material part at the entrance opening.
  • the retention device prefferably has a grid shape that provides a ratio of surface area of open space : surface area of beams of at least 0.5, preferably at least 0.6, more preferably at least 0.7 and still more preferably at least 0.8.
  • a ratio of 0.6 means that 60% of the total surface area con sists of open space and 40% consists of beams, i.e. material of which the retention device is made of. The greater this ratio, the lower the weight of the device.
  • a further advantage is comprised by the fact that a curable material, for example concrete, that is poured over the device and the pipe on the subsurface more easily flows around the device, covering it more smoothly and ensuring a better embedding of the device and the pipe in said curable mate rial.
  • a cost-friendly embodiment is obtained when the device is manufactured of recycled material.
  • the device is manu factured of recycled plastic.
  • a suitable retention device with a plentitude of beams is ob tained when the mutual distance between parallel beams is between 5 cm and 25 cm, preferably at least 5 cm and preferably maximally 20 cm. This applies to both the first and the second set of beams.
  • Such embodiment provides many coupling positions for the pipe to the retention device.
  • a retention device that can be placed in any four orienta tions is obtained when the two sets of beams are placed perpendic ularly with respect to each other. This provides advantage to a user, who can place the retention devices on the subsurface with out the obligation to accurately position same.
  • the beams may be embodied as an inverted T, i.e. as a T-beam which provides advantage in respect of low weight, high rigidity and optimal stability.
  • the invention therefore preferably relates to a retention device, wherein at least one of said beams is em bodied as a board-shaped part at the first main side of the device and a material part erect from said board-shaped part, said erect material part comprising said recesses for receiving and retaining at least part of the pipe.
  • the invention therefore preferably relates to a retention device, com prising at the contact surface at the first main side of the de vice a spacer for carrying the retention device on the subsurface.
  • the inven tion relates to a method for using a retention device according to the invention, the method comprising the steps of: - placing the retention device on a subsurface, and - inserting a pipe in the recesses.
  • the subsurface may be any of a building element, for ex ample a rough unfinished floor for obtaining floor heating and / or floor cooling.
  • An alternative comprises as a building element a prefab ceiling element for obtaining ceiling heating and / or cooling, or a prefab wall element for obtaining wall heating and / or cooling.
  • a curable mate rial for example concrete
  • the method com prises the steps of: - placing at least two retention devices on the subsurface, mutually connecting said two retention devices and - inserting the pipe in the recesses of said two retention devic es.
