Introduction to the advantages and disadvantages of underfloor heating What are the advantages and disadvantages of underfloor heating

Pros:

1. Comfortable and healthy. The temperature of the floor heating is from the bottom up, giving a person the comfort of warm feet and cool head, in line with the theory of traditional Chinese medicine. The heat is mainly transmitted by radiation, which does not dry the air, and the wavelength of the radiation is 8-12 microns of far infrared, which is beneficial to the human body.

2. Energy saving and environmental protection. In order to achieve the same room temperature effect, than the traditional heating can be adjusted down 2-3 degrees, effectively saving energy. And will not pollute the indoor air.

3. Uniform and stable heat dissipation. Because the floor heating is through the concrete heat transfer, heat distribution is uniform, coupled with the concrete has the role of energy storage, even if the intermittent heating can maintain a stable room temperature.

4. Reduce floor noise. China's floor is generally used prefabricated panels or cast-in-place panels, the sound insulation effect is very poor, people walking upstairs, it affects the downstairs, the use of floor heating increased insulation layer, has a very good sound insulation effect, can reduce noise pollution; ground heating process is silent, quiet indoor environment, no air conditioning noise.

Disadvantages:

1. Floor heating does not take up space occupying layer height: floor heating occupies 5-7 cm layer height (selection of insulation materials, floor heating pipes are different, the construction program, method is different, different impact on the layer height)

2. Not easy to maintain: floor heating is a hidden project, renovation, selection of pressure and temperature resistance and corrosion resistance, good thermal stability of the material. It is not easy to secondary decoration, because the pipeline is laid in the ground, remodeling the ground, it is easy to damage the underground pipeline. And the floor should not be laid on the floor decorations, easy to affect the cooling effect.

Installation of underfloor heating:

In the installation of underfloor heating, it is necessary to do the installation of safe and planned. Installation of underfloor heating is not no layout, on the contrary, the layout of the floor heating installation needs to be meticulous, according to the use of the area and the room's thermal insulation effect to consider the layout of the floor heating, the design of a reasonable floor heating piping direction and the spacing between the pipeline.

So the use of underfloor heating is not the denser the better, if the underfloor heating disk spacing is too words, it will cause the room temperature is too high and appear hot and dry, on the contrary, it will also affect people's physical health.

At the same time, the installation of floor heating is not can not install air conditioning, because floor heating can only take the effect of heating, and in the summer need to use to the time of refrigeration, or need to our air conditioning to power, so in the home, but also to install air conditioning, so as not to heat up when it will be caught off guard.
