What is floor heating?
The full name of floor heating is ground low-temperature radiation heating, which is to introduce circulating hot water into the heating pipeline loop under the paved floor or floor tile or directly lay heating cables. The system mainly conducts heat from bottom to top by radiation, and then radiates heat evenly from the ground to the room, thus creating an ideal indoor environment with temperature distribution and making the human senses reach the most comfortable heating state.
Compared with air conditioning, electric heating and other heating equipment, floor heating completely meets the requirements of comfort, health, energy saving and rational use of space, and conforms to the fitness theory of "warming feet and enjoying the cool" in traditional Chinese medicine. It is currently recognized as the most comfortable heating method and a symbol of modern life quality.
However, some people think that floor heating is slow and occupies a high floor, so is floor heating good?
Ten core advantages of floor heating
Health care: floor heating uses the new far-infrared radiation principle to generate micron-sized infrared rays during operation. Medical clinical trials have proved that the indoor temperature is uniform through floor radiant heating, and the temperature radiates upward from the ground and decreases from bottom to top. The theory of "cold starts from the feet and blood circulation is not smooth" has a significant effect on eliminating or relieving cardiovascular diseases, lumbago and leg pain, arthritis, scapulohumeral periarthritis, cervical spondylosis, gastrointestinal diseases and gynecological diseases; Has obvious curative effect on rheumatism. Cold legs and rheumatism are common in the elderly, and cold and humidity are the most taboo. Floor heating can not only alleviate these problems, but also play a certain role in the health of the elderly.
Comfort and hygiene: floor heating can make your feet directly contact the heat source, and the room temperature gradually decreases from bottom to top, giving people the comfort of warming your feet and cooling your head, which conforms to the fitness theory of "warming your feet and cooling your head" in traditional Chinese medicine; Even in cold winter, you can still enjoy the feeling of spring indoors. In addition, because the hot air of the floor heating naturally rises and there is no air agitation, it is not easy to cause foul air convection, and the indoor air is clean and sanitary, and will not produce harmful bacteria, which is suitable for sensitive person of respiratory system and reduces the occurrence of asthma.
Energy saving and operation cost saving: floor heating saves 20%-30% energy compared with traditional heating methods, and the energy saving benefit is considerable. Low-temperature floor radiant heating can be controlled by households and rooms, and users can adjust according to the situation to further effectively save energy and reduce consumption.
Reduce floor noise: At present, domestic mezzanine floors generally use precast slabs or cast-in-place slabs, and the sound insulation effect is very poor. If people go upstairs, it will affect the downstairs. The insulation layer is added to the floor heating, and the sound insulation effect is very good, and the floor heating process is silent.
Good thermal stability: the ground with warm floor and concrete floor have strong heat storage capacity. In the case of intermittent heating, the indoor temperature changes slowly and feels natural, and there will be no discomfort caused by excessive temperature rise.
Safety and reliability: insulation, flame retardant, waterproof, no electric leakage, no electric leakage, air leakage, scald, tube explosion and other phenomena endangering personal safety in traditional heating.
Not occupying space: floor heating is a concealed project, and there is no radiator and branch pipe to occupy space, which indirectly increases the use area of the room and is convenient for decoration and furniture layout.
Long service life: the floor heating pipe is buried in the module or concrete layer under the floor, without corrosion and scaling. If there is no man-made damage, the service life is generally more than 50 years, and it does not need to be replaced and maintained, and it is installed and molded at one time.
Easy to use: users can adjust and control different indoor temperatures according to their own needs, and use them in homes and rooms to provide heat on demand at regular intervals, which is as simple as using electricity, saving energy and money.
Environmental protection: no harmful gas emission, no noise and dust pollution, no air blockage and drying problems. The use and utilization of clean electric energy has formed a sanitary and clean living environment. In addition, there is no sound when floor heating works, which improves sleep quality, falls asleep quickly and ensures deep sleep, which is conducive to maintaining vigorous work energy.
Floor heating can give children more warm and meticulous care. In the cold winter, children don't have to worry about catching cold by crawling on the ground. After installing floor heating, children can play on the ground at will.
Keep skin moist and help women stay young; Air conditioning is heated by sending hot air, which will make women's skin dry and rough in cold winter with low humidity, while floor heating will not, because it does not create "wind".
According to relevant scientific statistics, the floor heating system can stimulate people to increase exercise and contribute to physical and mental health.
In order to let you choose the heating system suitable for your family and create a more comfortable living environment before determining the decoration scheme, it comes from Japan's efficient and energy-saving heating, and according to years of experience and the characteristics of floor heating products, it helps you to dispel layers of concerns.
Concern 1: "Will the floor heating leak? If it is broken, is it very troublesome to maintain it? "
Although floor heating is a durable product, it will also break down if it is improperly constructed or used. Floor heating is a concealed project. If it is broken, it will be quite troublesome to maintain. If it is in the circulation system, the house will be flooded after it breaks down, and the consequences are quite serious.
Elimination of energy consumption rate:
There is a popular saying in the heating industry: "Three points depend on products, and seven points depend on installation". Good installation will have an important impact on the performance and life of products, so we must choose brands with guaranteed quality and good service. Don't blindly pursue low cost in the early stage, buy some unprotected products or temporarily choose famous HVAC companies.
Energy brand has more than 30 years of mature heating experience, and the core components of home heating system such as floor heating, thermostat, distribution manifold and thermal valve are all energy brands, which fully guarantee the product quality and service life.
At the same time, we have a specially trained design/construction team to provide overall heating system services, including pipes, floor heating panels, heating stoves and related system components and installation services. The construction site is operated according to the special floor heating construction process, and the machine is debugged and operated after the construction is completed, which fully ensures the correct installation and safe use of the home heating system.
Worry 2: I am worried that floor heating will affect the height of the floor.
When installing the heating system, it is inevitable to worry that it will affect the story height, thus affecting the overall beauty and living experience of the house. The joke "when we are together, our heads will hit the chandelier" reflects the concerns of many consumers.
Elimination of energy consumption rate:
There are two kinds of floor heating: wet floor heating and dry floor heating Cement is needed for wetland heating, and the floor will be raised 10- 13 cm after the pipeline is buried. Dry-laid floor heating only needs to install keel and joinery board directly on the ground, and then lay modular dry-laid radiator board, without concrete backfilling and leveling, and directly lay solid wood composite floor, and the ground is only about 7 cm higher.
Worry 3: I am worried that I can afford it, but I can't afford it.
Many people say that bringing floor heating costs 2,000 or 3,000 yuan a month. Is it really so expensive? I feel that this cost is good (zhen) and harmful (xin) (gui)!
Elimination of energy consumption rate:
Dry floor heating can be realized in about half an hour after startup, and the whole room can be heated quickly. Intermittent heating can be used, that is, heating can be carried out when it is on. Generally speaking, the operating cost of dry floor heating system in Japan is very low, which is only 1/2 of that of wet floor heating system. Because the temperature of wet paving system is slow, it is best to keep it open in winter heating season, so the gas consumption will be much higher than that of dry paving system.
Concern 4: I am afraid that harmful substances such as formaldehyde in the floor will volatilize when heated.
Now people pay more attention to the environmental protection and health of home decoration. Because solid wood flooring is natural wood, it is easy to deform, so families who install floor heating usually choose solid wood composite flooring. With the increase of floor temperature under floor heating (generally around 24~27℃), it will accelerate the volatilization of formaldehyde in floor glue and endanger human health.
Elimination of energy consumption rate:
Under normal circumstances, with the increase of the water temperature in the underfloor pipeline, the volatilization of formaldehyde in the board will indeed accelerate, but in fact, the water temperature in the floor heating pipeline is less than 30 degrees. Take summer as an example. In hot summer, if the air conditioner is not turned on indoors, the temperature will reach 35-40 degrees, which will also cause the volatilization of formaldehyde. Therefore, the key to the problem lies not in the floor heating products themselves, but in the choice of decorative materials such as floors.
In order to solve the problem that consumers are worried about formaldehyde volatilization when the composite floor is heated, many floor brands have provided special floors for floor heating, which is based on the use environment of floor heating. Compared with the common solid wood floor, the carbonization process is added in the manufacturing process of the solid wood geothermal floor, which ensures that the floor maintains the molecular structure in the original wood after passing through the high temperature environment and enhances the stability and deformation resistance of the solid wood floor.
Concern 5: Worried about poor comfort.
Floor heating is known as the most comfortable household heating method at present. However, many consumers find that it is not as good as advertised by manufacturers, especially slow heating, poor heat preservation and poor compression resistance, and they feel uncomfortable. Comfort is a key factor to measure the quality of a product. When you hear many people around you complaining about the poor comfort of floor heating products, you will naturally have such concerns.
Elimination of energy consumption rate:
Japan's mature and advanced heating technology can be introduced to China, and all its Japanese-style special heating stoves and components are imported. Domestic production line assembly and modular design and manufacture of floor heating parts can raise the floor temperature to about 28℃ in 30 minutes. The heating tube is integrated with the insulation layer, so the insulation effect is better; Because the floor heating coil is laid evenly, the temperature rises half an hour after starting, and the indoor temperature changes slowly after reaching the set temperature, and the comfort naturally increases.
After reading the above layers of analysis, your concerns should be completely dispelled! The most important thing is to choose the supplier of floor heating products with brand strength guarantee and technical strength support to ensure the long-term stable use of home heating system.
If you focus on the development and production of gas water heaters and gas heating stoves, you will be able to provide a warm and happy area for your family in the cold winter!
