Underfloor Heating is Good For The Houses?
Almost all consumers who want to use an underfloor heating system ask, “Is a house with underfloor heating good?” looks for an answer to the question. Because the issue of whether underfloor heating is better or honeycomb radiator causes different debates. You can examine why underfloor heating should be preferred with the advantages listed below.
Underfloor Heating is Advantageous
In the system that provides a homogeneous heat distribution, there is no temperature difference between rooms. Heat does not accumulate anywhere, and since it is stored by the building structural elements, thermal comfort is not affected by sudden temperature changes. Underfloor heating ensures that the heat spreads over the entire floor area and meets the most suitable and economically advantageous heating need for human structure with homogeneous distribution.
Underfloor Heating
Prevents Germ Growth
Since the floor surface temperature is twenty-eight degrees, the disturbing drop in air humidity is not an issue in this system. Underfloor heating also prevents the growth of germs as it ensures less movement within the space. In systems where radiators are used, up to 30 – 50% energy savings are achieved as the hot air waste, which cannot be prevented and is useless to form, especially in areas close to the ceiling and heater, is completely eliminated with this system. If installed in greenhouses, it will save 47 percent of energy compared to classical greenhouse heating and thus more crops will be obtained each year.
Prevents Mite Insects from Surviving
It provides ease of decoration since there are no radiator-like heaters in the space. Since the entire floor is not insulated, thermal insulation and sound transmission are achieved between floors. Since Underfloor Heating Systems do not create dust, they prevent mite insects from living.
Under Heating
Temperature Suitable for Human Life
The systems in the space where the actual amount of heat is applied provide a uniform and suitable living space for the human body. In a healthy person, the armpit temperature is 36.5 degrees. The air around the human body is 20 or 22 degrees. The temperature on the foot surfaces is 23 to 25 degrees. These numbers are the most ideal degrees for healthy human anatomy.
How to Maintain Underfloor Heating?
Underfloor heating systems, with a maximum temperature value of 55 degrees, are used through combi boiler systems. As one of the heating types used with water pipes and electrical systems, underfloor heating systems may develop calcification in the system over time. However, this situation occurs after many years compared to radiators. Since the temperature of a radiator is 70 degrees, lime and sediment deposits appear on the radiators almost every year. For this reason, the following are the things that await you regarding the maintenance of underfloor heating.
- Underfloor heating should be cleaned at intervals of 2 and 3 years.
- Flow and return hoses are used with special machines for underfloor heating systems. The system is cleaned with the help of air and water.
- Dirty water will be discharged with special machines.
- With the help of chemical water, slime, dirty water and muddy water are exchanged.
- Systems with low fungal and bacterial production will be cleaned quickly with easy cleaning processes.
- It will provide fuel savings of 20% to 50%.
Do underfloor heating systems retain dirt?
Underfloor heating systems due to water movement; They can produce mud, slime and sediment. Compared to radiator systems, this situation occurs every 3 years.
Is underfloor heating installed afterwards?
Water pipe or electrical cable systems placed under the ground can be installed in places with natural gas and electrical systems. The system used for this is to remove the parquet on the floor and place the system under the parquet at intervals of 3 to 6 cm. Floor heating systems that provide homogeneous distribution in the interior;
- These are systems that are installed by reducing the contact between the carbon film and the parquet gold.
- It is possible to switch from using radiators to underfloor heating systems by making natural gas connections through water pipe systems.
- A safe heating and insulation area can be created with electrical cable systems.
- It can be applied in hot pools, indoor pools, homes, winter gardens, Turkish baths and closed balconies.
In underfloor heating systems that can be integrated with the use of combi boilers, it is especially possible to switch from radiators. After measurements of the used internal space are made, heating systems can be arranged according to the possibilities of the surface and electrical or water pipe systems can be integrated. Systems that will increase the heat level will ensure that the entire area is heated with low combi boiler energy, thanks to homogeneous heat distribution.
Bottom Heating
Suitable for Which Floor Types?
Diameter measurements are made in pipe and electrical systems depending on the type of ground used. SALT Engineering makes professional designs according to wet floors, tiles and parquet types. It also organizes the usage area of the materials according to the ground possibilities. In underfloor heating systems, the heat level and pipe proximity must be adjusted according to the floor structure.
In underfloor heating systems built on marble, natural stones and parquet, dry floors and wet floors will also be safe to use. It will work smoothly under rugs, carpets and flooring, ensuring homogeneous heat distribution. Not only do they create a space of freedom in interior decoration, they are also ideal systems for energy saving.
- Underfloor heating systems should be preferred without using carpets and rugs.
- In addition to reducing efficiency, the use of rugs and carpets can prevent the spread of heat.
- Thinner carpets or rugs should be used to avoid reducing the heat effect on the floor.
- The temperature value will not decrease on wet and dry floors and homogeneous heat conduction of 55 degrees will continue.
Which Underfloor Heating Systems Should We Choose?
Radiator systems heat a certain area and especially prevent the homogeneous distribution of heat. This causes the combi boiler to work intensively and the natural gas and electricity bills to be high. Underfloor heating systems will provide savings of 20%, 47% and 50% depending on usage conditions.
You need to choose electrical systems according to infrastructure capacity. Similarly, you need to choose natural gas systems according to the natural gas infrastructure. Carbon film systems will provide widespread heat in the usage area because they are safe and have a high heat reflection level. It offers safe use as systems that can be installed under carpet. If the floor is parquet, marble or natural stone, using water pipe systems will be economical and provide high efficiency in terms of heat level.
Ideal Heating Option for Health
Underfloor heating systems should be used considering human health. For this reason, heating systems that are used in accordance with the foot sole temperature, which should be between 23 and 25 degrees, come to the fore. At the same time, the economical system provides 20% savings in terms of initial investment cost compared to other systems. It provides 50 percent savings in operating expenses.
