Floor heating is not a modern product. Romans used this heating system since 2000 years ago. Roman houses were built on a system of floor channels are heated while using heat produced by burning wood smoke within special ovens. All such heated air was run through these channels. However, due to modern technology, warming has become a elegant and efficient method to heat any home, not just those of... patricians. In the mid-60s was based ground heating power. At that time, wiring resistance were set in thick concrete and were heated at day using cheap electricity. This idea did not work well, because heat can not be controlled efficiently, the floor is too hot racindu morning and the day. Fortunately, current floor heating systems use a continuous flow of hot water. Over hot water pipes pour a screed 65 to 70 mm, but can be installed under wood floors.
The advantages of floor heating
Floor heating systems have many advantages over conventional systems with traditional radiator. If you ever choose this alternative since the housing engineering, installation costs will not rise above the essential requirements of a system of radiators, cost savings during exploitation is significant, over 20%. After that, the comfort is far superior to that offered by a classification system for heating, heat is directed toward the ceiling and not to the bottom.
There are several things to consider before opting for this solution heating beyond nominal prices involved and accessories.
Location
Where you've got installed underfloor heating is the first condition that can ensure success. It is preferred that substitute for express early design stage. Further modifications are difficult and also the existing installation to a location involves additional costs as a result of changes required - the floor will increase by about 50 mm and occur additional load resistance system. Mounting in flats increased load resistance structure. Moreover, the system can be connected directly to the centralized heat distribution of the following reasons: poor quality of the mineral water, which can lead to clogging of broiling system, pressure and temperature delivered (6 bar at 600 C) is greater than the necessary (1-2 bar at 40-450 J). The system has high thermal inertia. Set it up in permanently inhabited space.
Thermal Insulation
This system is recommended to be installed in new homes properly insulated. If the house is not really insulated, your underfloor heating system will not handle heat. Will be installed in parallel with a classical system, to be used in situations when outside temperatures require.
Design and installing
Then, one of the critical points of a floor heating is the quality of the project. It is advisable to confer with a professional company and produce a comprehensive project, so the future construction and that installation.
Design and installation of underfloor heating are certainly not activities of "do it yourself". We recommend you hire a professional to do their job. Otherwise you risk that this facility is not working properly, to not handle the heat or cause discomfort (floor is heated a lot more than necessary).
