Our History

The Legalett Air-Heated Slab Foundation Concept Started Out Over 40 Years Ago in Sweden.... Now Nearly Half of all Construction Being Done in Sweden is with the Legalett System.

Insulated Concrete Floor Slab Experts for 40+ Years

Legalett was created over 40 years ago as a simple grid of pipes installed in a slab to distribute heat from a heater located above the slab.

The first Legalett slab was designed and built in Kungälv, Sweden
Over time, the system design was refined to use pipe loops rather than a piping grid
Heaters were then re-designed to enable their insertion within the slab
The company was started in 1983
