Which is more cost-effective than gas floor heating or electric floor heating?

The weather is getting colder and colder, and many homes in the north are equipped with floor heating. Some people think that floor heating is warmer than heating, which does not occupy space and does not destroy the layout of the room. Therefore, installing floor heating at home is a good choice for cold areas. What kind of floor heating should be installed? Let's talk about it below.

What conditions do you need to install floor heating at home?

1, determine the heating source first. If there are several heating sources used in your home, if you want to install floor heating, I suggest that you install a temperature control device at the floor heating joint, so that the life of the installed floor heating system will be longer and longer, and it can also save energy and cool down, because long-term high temperature will reduce the service life of floor heating.

If the height of your house is not high, it is recommended not to use floor heating. Because the floor heating is installed on the ground, it will occupy a part of the thickness because it needs to lay pipes and keep warm.

3. After the floor heating is installed, it is not recommended to install the wood floor when the floor is decorated because many pipes are installed on the ground, because if the wood floor is paved, holes need to be drilled in the ground, and the floor heating has been installed. On the ground, if you drill holes, it will destroy the floor heating.

What kind of floor heating should be installed?

There are water heating and electric heating, and many people don't know which is better. In fact, each has its own advantages and disadvantages.

Circulating system: Generally speaking, the initial installation cost of circulating system is very high, and the later maintenance is also very troublesome. The coil needs to be cleaned every 2-3 years. But it has stable fever, is suitable for the elderly and children, has long service life and can provide domestic hot water.

The circulating system is suitable for areas with heating area exceeding 50 square meters, such as villas and townhouses.

Electric floor heating: can not provide domestic hot water, there is radiation; The circuit requirements at home are relatively large and not suitable for large-scale installation. However, the circulation system does not need maintenance or cleaning, and the subsequent maintenance cost is also very low.

Electric floor heating is suitable for small and medium-sized units with heating area below 50 square meters.
