"Why are you still on floor heating?" Aren't you afraid of your child getting leukemia! Aunt Wang was heartbroken and asked her daughter-in-law loudly.
What's going on? It turned out that Aunt Wang's family lived in the north, and many people around had installed floor heating at home. The two sons of Aunt Wang's family hope that after getting married and moving to a new home, they will also install floor heating in the new home to improve their quality of life.
However, while Aunt Wang was busy decorating her sons' new houses, she saw a message. It was this news that made Aunt Wang make up her mind that floor heating must not be installed in the new house. In addition, new houses that have been completed must also stop the floor heating.
As soon as this determination came out, the son and daughter-in-law were not happy. Aunt Wang found that the young people did not take her words seriously, and still opened the floor to warm up, and they were angry.
"Why don't you listen to the old man?" All said and done, no floor heating. Didn't you read the report I shared with you? Italian experts have said that the impact of floor heating on the family is very large! Either kill sperm, harm the male host, or cause the children in the family to get leukemia! ”
Aunt Wang lectured the little two, and she couldn't stop talking about it. Even the real case of people around them who have not had children for several years is taken out, just to prove the harm of floor heating.
Is what the Italian experts say true? Does floor heating really have such a big health risk?
Floor heating, warming your family, but slowly killing your children?
This "winter artifact" that many people like can be said to be the standard for many families in the north. However, in the past two years, there have been more and more voices discussing the health hazards of "floor heating". There is a saying that underfloor heating can increase the risk of cardiovascular disease. There is also a saying that heat radiation is harmful to the human body and can even reduce vision.
Floor heating, the reason why the room can be warmed up, rely on heat radiation. The difference between different floor heating is mainly in the heating equipment.
For example, water floor heating, the use of hot water pipes. The pipe is laid and then flowed inside the pipe through hot water, so that this part of the heat is raised from the ground and transported to the room.
Electric floor heating, on the other hand, uses cables. It mainly uses the conversion between electrical energy and thermal energy, so as to carry out thermal radiation and achieve the effect of heat delivery to the entire space.
Therefore, electric heating does have electromagnetic radiation! This is what it necessarily leads to!
Well, here's the problem. Can electric heating really cause a child to develop leukemia?
This depends on the specific electromagnetic radiation of electric heating.
In general, the frequency of radiated waves of electric heating is 50 hertz. Is this number dangerous or not? You can compare it with the electromagnetic radiation of mobile phones and computers. The radiation of mobile phones is around 800-1800, while the radiation of computers is around 300.
It seems that the gap is not big? Tell you a conversion formula. 1 MHz = 1 million Hz.
So, instead of worrying about the electromagnetic radiation of electric heating, it is better to worry about some household appliances that are hundreds of thousands of times higher than it!
CCTV an experiment to expose the truth about thermal radiation
Under what circumstances does thermal radiation occur? In fact, as long as the temperature of the object is higher than minus 273 degrees Celsius, thermal radiation will be generated.
CCTV once did an experiment on thermal radiation for floor heating. When reporters and floor heating experts checked electromagnetic radiation in residents' homes, they found the following data.
The amount of electromagnetic radiation in the floor heating is about 0.08 micro-Tesla, while the electromagnetic radiation of the electric iron is 40, and the induction cooker is 20.
Through these numerical comparisons, the electromagnetic radiation of floor heating is more quantified. Its health hazards are smaller than many common electrical appliances.
At present, the medical community also has no relevant evidence that underfloor heating can make children get leukemia.
However, it is true that spermatogenesis cells are lost at high temperatures.
So, will a man sit on the floor heating for a long time, will he "kill sperm"?
Generally speaking, in the environment of high-temperature sauna, it is possible to "kill sperm" after the male lower body is directly exposed to the high temperature for half an hour. For floor heating, the temperature is not too high. And men must also stay sitting on the ground for a long time.
How to use floor heating safely?
Although floor heating will not kill sperm, so that children get leukemia, but how to use floor heating safely is also a science.
01 Choose eco-friendly flooring
Floor heating is generally installed under the floor. If it is a floor with poor quality and environmental protection, it is easy to affect the life of floor heating in frequent changes in heating and cold.
And the newly decorated house, if the formaldehyde is still "evil" inside, and then open the floor heating, it will play a trick for the tiger and harm our health.
02 Control temperature and ventilation
Many times, people feel that the floor heating has been turned on, it is difficult to warm up the room, and then pay attention to ventilation, will not it be opened to the floor heating.
In fact, in the cold environment, the floor heating has been in a heated state, and the air does not circulate, which will affect the air quality. Every once in a while, it is necessary to maintain ventilation and temperature. If you are really afraid of cold, you can also increase the air humidity.
Dr.X said
In the face of rumors, we cannot mess with ourselves, we cannot blindly believe them, and we cannot blindly spread them. Floor heating, slowly warmed up our little family. But as long as it is used correctly, it will not kill our children and health.
