When the cold air swept in relentlessly, the frost covered the land, and people sought warm embrace. At this time, underfloor heating, which is known as a comfortable way to heat in winter, has gradually become the first choice for people, especially in the southern region, where this technology is rapidly gaining popularity. However, the popularity of floor heating is not all smooth sailing, and novices are confused and wrong in its installation and use. In this winter, let's explore the overlooked suggestions for the use of underfloor heating and uncover the correct posture for using underfloor heating. The first suspense: what is the correct step to turn on the floor heating for the first time? Many novice users have just installed the floor heating at home, and they are eager to feel the warm spring-like effect. But did they know that raising the temperature too aggressively could have unintended consequences? When the underfloor heating is first turned on, it needs to slowly heat the floor and bake the moisture in the room, which is a gradual process. If the temperature is set too high, it will not only bring devastating pressure to the floor heating equipment and pipes, but also cause the wooden floor to warp, the floor tiles to crumble, and even the furniture to deform and crack. So, what should be the correct opening steps? Or is there something else we don't know? The second suspense: how to control the warmth of the room?
Some users may think that the higher the indoor temperature, the better, but in reality, this is not the case. If the temperature of underfloor heating is too high, it will not only dry out the population, but also lead to a sharp increase in energy consumption and potential risks to human health. In fact, the most comfortable temperature range for floor heating is usually between 18°C and 22°C, and the relative humidity should be maintained at 45% to 60%. This is where the human body is most comfortable. If the temperature is adjusted too high, it will not only increase energy consumption, but also may cause the body's blood vessels to dilate, increase the heart rate, and even induce respiratory diseases; Returning to the use of underfloor heating, we still need to know more. Are there other risks that we are not aware of, or are there more advanced techniques for temperature control of underfloor heating?
Finally, we will be faced with the ultimate question: how to choose and maintain underfloor heating to ensure that it can play its maximum effect in the cold winter, and at the same time maintain it properly to extend its service life? Underfloor heating is not only a heating tool, it is related to the comfort of living and the health of family members. Therefore, we need to understand underfloor heating more deeply in order to make it a true source of warmth. In this winter, before the cold snap hits, let's learn Xi wisdom of floor heating and enjoy a worry-free warm winter. We'll take you step by step to unlock the secrets of using underfloor heating, so that when the real cold comes, you can easily cope with it and embrace the warmth that comes from the depths. In the long, cold winter days, the warmth of home becomes a haven for our souls. Floor heating, a quiet but warm modern technology, is playing an important role in more and more homes. However, underfloor heating is not a one-and-done solution, and behind its warmth, there are many details that need our attention. First of all, temperature control is a technical task. I'm sure many people have heard that the temperature of underfloor heating should be set between 18°C and 22°C. But in fact, this temperature range is not set in stone.
The suitable temperature for young people may be between 18°C and 20°C due to their strong metabolism, while 20°C to 22°C is more suitable for the elderly and children because they are less resistant to cold. However, just as important as temperature is humidity, which is ideally between 45% and 60% for a truly comfortable environment. But have you ever wondered if the layout of the furniture will affect the functional effect of floor heating? This is a problem that is often overlooked. When the floor heating company designs, it usually informs the user that the floor heating coil should not be laid under the cabinet, so many users are worried that they will suffer a loss, after all, the location of the cabinet is also included when calculating the area. In fact, there is no need to worry too much, because according to the standard floor heating construction, the 15 to 20 cm position near the wall will not be installed in the first place, and the closed cabinet and under the tatami mat can also not be laid, which is for safety and protection of functional considerations. However, this does not mean that these areas are not warmly embraced, and the lack of heat can also be compensated for by increasing the density of underfloor heating coils in adjacent areas. It has to be mentioned that the effect of legless furniture on floor heating. They can block heat dissipation and can even damage furniture due to high temperatures.
Therefore, if you have installed underfloor heating in your home, it is advisable to minimize the use of legless furniture. When decorating the layout, the distribution of the underfloor heating coils should be taken into account, as well as the optimal circulation of heat. When it comes to the maintenance of underfloor heating, there is another common misconception that needs to be clarified. It has been argued that if the water quality is good, the underfloor heating does not need to be cleaned. In fact, regardless of the water quality, impurities such as limescale, bioslime, etc., can accumulate in the pipes over time. These contaminants not only affect heating efficiency, but can also cause clogged pipes. 1 mm of limescale is enough to reduce the heating water temperature by 5°C to 6°C, which shows the importance of regular cleaning of floor heating. Cleaning underfloor heating is not only about flushing the pipes, but also about cleaning core components such as boilers and combustion chambers, as well as the maintenance and commissioning of control valves and panels. These tasks usually require professional cleaning personnel to do and take a certain amount of time. Therefore, experts recommend that the underfloor heating should be fully cleaned and maintained every 2 to 3 years. In particular, cleaning before starting to use underfloor heating ensures efficiency and comfort throughout the heating season. We all long to come back to a warm home in the winter. Underfloor heating provides us with an ideal way to warm up, but it also requires our care.
Correct temperature and humidity settings, reasonable furniture layout, and regular cleaning and maintenance are all seemingly trivial things that are the key to ensuring the efficiency of floor heating and prolonging the service life. When we pay enough attention and care to these details, underfloor heating brings us not only warmth, but also the comfort and peace of mind of home. As the pace of winter is getting closer and closer, with the yearning for warmth, people begin to miss the floor heating in their homes. Friends in the north may have long been Xi to this heating method, but in the south, floor heating is a relatively new concept. Underfloor heating, the magical device that makes cold winter days warm like spring, is gradually becoming a comfortable lifestyle that families in the south crave for in the south. However, many users in the south still have a shallow understanding of the underfloor heating system and are still in the stage of exploration. Today, let's explore the world of floor heating together and unlock the secrets of safer, more efficient and energy-saving use. First of all, we have to face the issue of water quality. Water, seemingly ordinary, is the "blood" of the underfloor heating system. In the south, the water quality is often more complex, with high hardness, and it is easy to form scale on the inner wall of the pipeline. These small enemies, accumulated over time, can eventually lead to a significant decrease in the efficiency of underfloor heating, or even damage to the underfloor heating system.
So, if you have poor water quality in your location, remember that this is not a small detail to ignore. Cleaning your underfloor heating system at least once a year is like giving your home a "bath" and keeping it running smoothly and efficiently. This is not only to prolong the life of underfloor heating, but also to make the soles of your feet feel a steady stream of warmth. So, the question is, how to ensure that the underfloor heating system can work efficiently and energy-efficient, and many people may not know that the temperature setting of the underfloor heating system has a crucial impact on energy consumption. Imagine that on a cold winter night, you try to banish the cold by raising the temperature, and instead of achieving the expected comfort level, you send your electricity bill skyrocketing. In this case, it is a technical task to reasonably adjust the temperature of the floor heating. Usually, the indoor temperature is kept at 18-22 degrees Celsius, which is a comfortable and energy-efficient temperature range. Don't just go for high temperatures, because for every 1 degree increase, energy consumption increases by a corresponding percentage. As a result, valuable energy is wasted, and household expenses are also increased. In addition, the use of floor heating should also be kept in mind: energy saving is not simply saving electricity, but on the premise of ensuring comfort, reasonable planning of energy use.
The insulation of windows, the insulation of rooms, and even a reasonable interior layout can make the thermal efficiency of floor heating to a higher level, so that the feeling of warmth like spring is more durable. While enjoying the comfort brought by underfloor heating, safety issues should not be overlooked. Floor heating pipes are arranged under the ground, and once a water leak occurs, the consequences are unimaginable. Therefore, correct installation and regular inspection are particularly important. Choose a professional installation team to ensure that every step meets the installation standards, so that hidden dangers can be eliminated in the bud. Now, we've learned about some of the key points in a floor heating system. Friends in the south, are you ready to meet the challenges of this winter? The world of floor heating is far richer than imagined, it is not only a way of heating, but also an attitude of life. Let's sum up: underfloor heating, as a comfortable way of heating, has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in the north. Now, with the increase in the demand for heating in the south, floor heating has also begun to enter more and more southern families. However, in order to make the floor heating service better, we need to pay attention not only to the regulation of temperature, but also to the treatment of water quality, the control of energy consumption and the guarantee of safety. This winter, take a moment to learn about your home's underfloor heating system.
Cleaning and maintenance, reasonable settings, paying attention to energy saving, and checking safety, these seemingly trivial things are actually related to the quality of your winter warmth.
