What are the advantages and disadvantages of underfloor heating and what are the advantages and disadvantages of underfloor heating

Hello, the following answer hope to help you.

Floor heating advantages

1, floor heating in line with the Chinese medicine warm feet and cool top human supply and demand, give a person a good feeling of warm feet and cool head, does not cause convection of dirty air, indoor very clean.

2, heat dissipation, and less energy consumption.

3, space-saving, do not have to put any equipment at home, and beautiful, comfortable.

4, good thermal stability, heat storage function due to the ground and the concrete layer of heat storage, thermal stability, in the intermittent heating conditions, the indoor temperature change is small.

5, control flexibility. Floor heating system is controlled in separate rooms, a room is a separate system. The temperature of each room can be personalized settings, no use of the room can be turned off, which can be effectively simple and running costs.

6, health. Air conditioning builds up dust and bacteria, so you can see a layer of dust on the furniture where the air conditioner is blowing, which can lead to many health problems. Underfloor heating, on the other hand, has no exposed ducts, no dust, and it helps eliminate mold and bacteria.

Disadvantages of underfloor heating:

1, maintenance is difficult, once the problem occurs, the repair is more troublesome. So generally electric floor heating installation in the whole installation of multiple links need to be tested and accepted.

2, the bathroom is inconvenient to lay, the bathroom is more humid, so you must do waterproofing, and therefore inconvenient to lay, you must borrow a group of electric heaters and so on.

3, because of its temperature uniformity, so the room looks warmer, drier, some people with poor physique, it is easy to catch a cold and fire, so must be selective use.

The advantages of floor heating:

Improve the quality of indoor air when using floor heating, indoor air flow rate is small, reducing the airborne dust and floating germs, maintaining a better air cleanliness. Floor heating will be the ground temperature uniform heating, room temperature from the bottom up gradually decreasing, the indoor temperature changes slowly, can better maintain a balanced room temperature, in 20 ℃ when the power and water outages, the indoor temperature in 24 hours can still be maintained at 18 ℃, so that people do not have the feeling of cold and hot.

Does not account for the use of indoor area due to the use of floor heating, piping is buried in the mat below, the elimination of room heaters and branch risers, increasing the use of area of about 2% -3% (including the heating cover), to facilitate indoor decoration and furniture, electrical appliances and supplies, and can save on renovation costs, and will not affect the decorative effect, and will be conducive to sound insulation and reduce floor impact sound. The sound insulation and reduction of floor impact sound are also favorable.

Easy to use and energy-saving amplitude of the earth heating can be adjusted at will, convenient for owners to set the appropriate indoor temperature. Compared with traditional heating methods, floor heating can reduce energy consumption by about 10-20%. Large energy-saving makes the ground heating operation is more economical, if a household a year gas heating fee of 3000 yuan (according to 100 square meters, 30 yuan per square meter heating fee) calculation, ground heating users can save about 800 yuan per year. The service life of floor heating is more than 50 years, the savings in heating costs are very substantial.　

Disadvantages of floor heating:

Floor heating is poorly maintainable floor heating is a hidden project, not easy to repair, renovation to choose pressure and temperature resistance and corrosion resistance, thermal stability performance of high-tech environmentally friendly tubing. Laying wood flooring will have dry crack trouble, it is best to choose composite flooring, floor tiles or marble.

It is not convenient for the second renovation due to the floor heating heat pipes are laid in the ground, the second renovation to transform the ground, it is easy to damage the underground pipeline. And, the floor should not be laid on the carpet and other decorative items, otherwise it is easy to affect the heating effect. Setting temperature can not be too high, otherwise it will greatly reduce the service life of the delivery pipeline. Restricted use of the bathroom due to the complexity of the floor heating delivery piping, for waterproof considerations, the bathroom can not use floor heating.
