What are the advantages and disadvantages of floor heating?
First, the advantages of floor heating
1, high efficiency and energy saving: the effect of using floor heating at room temperature 18℃ is equivalent to that of using radiator at room temperature 20℃. Low-temperature hot water below 60℃ has little heat loss during transportation, saving about 30% energy than air conditioner and more than 20% energy than radiator.
2. Comfort and health care: the indoor surface temperature is uniform, and the room temperature gradually decreases from bottom to top, which conforms to the human body's cognitive principle of temperature. In human organs, feet are relatively cold and hot, and geothermal heating makes people feel comfortable, giving people a good feeling of warm feet and cool head, thus forming a comfortable environment that truly meets the requirements of the human body. For the elderly, even and moderate room temperature can relieve rheumatism and achieve the purpose of health care.
3. Good thermal stability: due to the large thermal storage capacity of the bottom layer and the thermal storage layer, the indoor temperature changes slowly in the case of intermittent heating, so the thermal stability is good.
4. Save space: Geothermal pipes are concealed, which avoids the space occupied by traditional indoor radiators and their branch pipes. From the perspective of building structure, geothermal heating has no exposed heating pipes extending in all directions, which saves space, is convenient for decoration and furniture layout, and does not affect the use area and indoor beauty.
5. Convenient room temperature adjustment: each loop in the water separator is equipped with an automatic control valve, which can accurately adjust the flow according to the required room temperature, saving energy and expenses to the maximum extent.
6. Environmental sanitation: avoid the rapid indoor airflow and dust flying caused by air conditioning and heating, reduce the evaporation of water in the air, and reduce the pollution of walls, articles and air, thus improving the sanitary conditions.
7. The service life of the system is long, and the geothermal water quality filter is maintenance-free: the service life of the special pipeline for floor heating can be as long as 50 years. The system adopts coil loop technology, and the underground heating coil has no joint, which is not easy to leak and maintenance-free.
8. Balanced room temperature: Geothermal heating increases the living area, makes the room spacious and bright, and reduces the decoration cost. Low cost, high thermal efficiency and utilization of solar energy. Central heating, household metering, flexible mediation and independent maintenance. Rural bungalows and villas are best equipped with wall-hung boilers, floor heating and solar hot water pumps. It is 2-3 degrees higher than the room temperature of traditional heating. Because the hot air goes from bottom to top, which conforms to the principle of air circulation, the indoor temperature is uniform.
Second, the shortcomings of floor heating
1, which is inconvenient for secondary decoration; Maintenance is troublesome, so it is necessary to choose high-tech environmental protection pipes with pressure resistance, temperature resistance, corrosion resistance and good thermal stability.
2. It has an impact on the story height, and it takes about 8 cm to lay the pipeline.
3. Carpeting will affect the heating effect.
The furniture may be deformed after a long time. Generally, floor heating materials are not laid under furniture.
The above is an introduction to the advantages and disadvantages of floor heating. I believe everyone has made a decision after knowing whether to install floor heating at home.
