Which is better, floor heating or radiator?
Radiant heating is the main heat dissipation mode of floor heating, and the heat radiates evenly from bottom to top, which is in line with ergonomics. The temperature on the same floor of the room is even, and the temperature difference is small, which makes people feel hot enough and cool enough, which is both energy-saving and comfortable. Radiator heating is a heating method based on convection.
Which is better, floor heating or radiator? The radiator heats the surrounding air first, so that the air forms convection indoors to achieve the purpose of heating. This heating method is that the temperature around the radiator is higher, and the temperature decreases with the increase of the distance from the radiator, and the temperature difference on the same floor is larger, especially in large space rooms. Because this kind of heating is convection, the hot air is convection from top to bottom, and the room temperature is cold and hot, giving people a feeling that the head is hot and the feet are cold. The comfort is relatively poor, but it is better than air conditioning heating.
Advantages of floor heating compared with radiator
1, which is a whole floor heating circulation system, with uniform heating and better comfort.
2, radiator terminal heat dissipation, driving room temperature, indoor temperature is uneven, and the comfort becomes worse.
3. The ground in the circulatory system is hot, warm and cool, which is more suitable for TCM health preservation.
Disadvantages of floor heating compared with radiator
1, regardless of the floor or tile height, the floor heating part accounts for about 5.5 cm of the floor height. The circulatory system occupies more floors. Ground structure of circulating system: insulation layer, heating layer and heat storage layer. The thermal insulation layer is also often called insulation board, the heating layer is also the heating tube, and the thermal storage layer is also the cement layer.
2. The radiator water supply pipeline is generally buried underground. But the pipeline is directly buried in concrete, which does not directly occupy the floor height.
3. The radiator heats up faster. When heating is started in the circulating system, the cement layer above the hot water pipe needs to be heated first, then the floor, and then the air is heated by the floor. It takes a long time from opening to reaching the expected temperature. The radiator terminal dissipates heat without heating the cement layer and floor, and the indoor temperature rises rapidly for the first time.
Advantages of floor heating
1, moderate is better: floor heating is caused by the heat emitted by the feet, which is called the dense concentration area of the second heart meridian points in Chinese medicine. As the saying goes: cold is born from the feet, which can effectively play a good role in human rheumatism.
2. Save space: there are no radiators, fan coils and pipes in the room, which increases the usable area of the building, improves the effective floor height and makes the room beautiful and tidy.
3. The operating cost is relatively low: This statement has a lot to do with your use time. Just like a car driving on the expressway, the floor heating is constant, and the radiator is 60M, 80M, 10M for a while. The same trip is definitely the most energy-saving.
4. Comfort and hygiene: radiant floor heating system is one of the most comfortable air conditioning methods. The indoor surface temperature is uniform, the indoor air temperature field distribution is reasonable, and the human body feels comfortable. At the same time, the room is clean and tidy, which is beneficial to human health.
5. Good stability: Because the floor heating and the aluminum foil layer of floor heating have large energy storage and good thermal stability, the room temperature can remain stable even under intermittent operation conditions.
6. Long service life: The floor heating pipes that meet European standards are materials that can be used continuously for more than 50 years.
Disadvantages of floor heating
1, there are requirements for floor materials: the floor materials for floor radiant heating mainly radiate heat indoors through floor concrete and floor materials, so the floor materials will always be heated to a certain temperature in the heating season, so the floor materials are suitable for stone or composite floors with good heat dissipation and insensitive material properties to temperature changes. At present, solid wood floor is not suitable for floor radiant heating system.
2. Occupancy of a certain height: The floor radiant heating system is not suitable for secondary decoration. The insulation materials, coils and concrete covering the coils are all laid below the ground, so it is necessary to occupy a certain height indoors. Depending on the system, the height is about 4-8 cm, the electric floor heating needs 4-6 cm, and the circulation system needs 6-8 cm. The influence of this height should be considered when choosing the floor radiant heating system. The system pipes are hidden under the ground and cannot be disassembled and replaced.
Advantages of radiator
1, fast heating: a good radiator starts to heat in about 10 minutes, and reaches the preset temperature (20 degrees plus or minus 2 degrees) in half an hour.
2. There is no requirement for the floor material: both pb pipe and aluminum-plastic composite pipe can be used as thermal insulation conduits without affecting the floor at home.
3, time saving: ready to use, no need to wait, save time.
Disadvantages of radiator
1, space occupation: the radiator has a certain volume, which will occupy the space at home (the radiator needs to be placed).
2. Comfort: The temperature of the radiator rises rapidly, and the comfort is slightly warmer than the ground.
Which is better, floor heating or radiator? The floor heating is very comfortable and conforms to the human body's heating habits, but the floor heating heats up slowly and the radiator is well done. The heating efficiency of radiator is high, but the comfort is not as good as that of floor heating. Which is better, floor heating or radiator? From the installation point of view, the installation of floor heating is much more complicated than radiator, and the installation of floor heating has to go through layers of processes. Radiators also have disadvantages. Installing a group of huge radiators takes up a lot of space, reduces the indoor use area and brings a lot of trouble to furniture layout and decoration.
Let's look at the prices of the two.
What is the price?
The price of Weineng 24KW circulating system (applicable to one room and one living room) is 24,494 yuan.
Duplex building 125~200_ floor heating 58885-88000 yuan
51~ 75m2 Bosch comfortably warms 27,800 yuan -8 1440 yuan.
Oudebao Radiator 52 yuan
Meiling Saina Spring Radiator 500 yuan
St Lawrence copper-aluminum composite radiator 174 yuan
Which is better, floor heating or radiator? What's the difference? From the comparison of floor heating and radiator, these two heating methods have their own advantages and disadvantages. Users can choose a more favorable heating mode according to their own habits and use environment. Of course, if your apartment is large enough, you can also choose mixed installation, that is, floor heating and radiator are installed at the same time, and you can feel the unparalleled home heating effect. Over the years, there are many examples of floor heating and radiator projects based on professional home heating system installation. In addition to the package of related room types, we can also tailor the scheme for users, and choose different heating schemes according to user needs and apartment configuration.
