As a practical heating device, underfloor heating is deeply loved by people in the cold winter.
Its high efficiency, energy saving, comfortable and healthy, beautifying the living room and other characteristics make it the first choice for early home decoration.
However, as time goes by, more and more people begin to abandon underfloor heating, or even replace the original underfloor heating with heating. What is the reason for this?
In this issue, let's take a look at why floor heating is gradually "disliked"?
Cumbersome installation
The installation process of underfloor heating is much more complex than that of a traditional heating system.
It's not as simple as buying a finished product, but requires meticulous coil laying and pressure testing before the house is renovated.
Workers need to work meticulously to ensure that every pipe is laid properly and that every joint is strong and reliable. This process is done to ensure the safety and reliability of the underfloor heating system.
In the installation process of floor heating, floor leveling is an indispensable process. This step requires precise measurement and construction to ensure the flatness of the floor and thus the heat dissipation of the underfloor heating.
Floor leveling requires the use of specialized materials and techniques to ensure the quality and durability of the floor.
The installation process of underfloor heating is time-consuming and laborious, and requires professional workers and technicians to complete. Compared to traditional heating systems, underfloor heating is also more expensive to install. This is mainly due to the special nature of the pipes and fittings of the underfloor heating system, which need to be customized, and the installation process requires a lot of manpower and time.
Repairs are very cumbersome
Friends who have used floor heating know that floor heating is not a one-time choice.
With the growth of use time, many friends will find that the heat provided by floor heating gradually decreases, or even appears not warm.
In such cases, in most cases, the floor heating has broken down and needs to be repaired.
Floor heating is buried directly in the ground during renovation, which brings great difficulties and challenges to maintenance. Repairing underfloor heating involves priing the floor open, finding the underfloor plumbing and repairing it, a process that not only costs time and money, but can also cause structural damage to the home.
It is for these reasons that modern people are often reluctant to choose floor heating as a heating method when decorating.
In contrast, other heating methods such as air conditioners and radiators are more convenient to repair and replace.
Underfloor heating takes a long time
The underfloor heating pipes are buried deep in the ground and tightly integrated with the ground to form a powerful heating system.
In winter, when the heating system is turned on, the surrounding sand and cement are the first to feel the heat, and they act like a warm bridge that transfers heat to the ground.
This process takes a certain amount of time, because the heat needs to warm up the surrounding cement and sand before it can gradually increase the indoor temperature.
If the heating system fails, or if the area is heated in stages, the indoor temperature can drop rapidly. When the heating supply is stopped, the indoor temperature may drop to an uncomfortable level.
If it needs to heat up again, the system needs to be restarted, and this process also takes time.
Therefore, during the failure of the heating system or during the period of periodic heating, the indoor temperature may be at a low level for a long time, which will undoubtedly affect the living experience of people.
will occupy the height of the floor
For lower floors, daylighting is often poor, and interiors can appear dark and damp.
In this case, the installation of underfloor heating, although it can bring warmth, can also make the room appear more low, thus creating a sense of oppression. Residents on lower floors may feel cramped and uncomfortable.
Therefore, when choosing whether to install underfloor heating, it is necessary to consider comprehensively according to the floor height and lighting conditions.
Underfloor heating is a good option if the floors are higher and have good daylight, while for residents on lower floors, it may be necessary to consider more carefully whether to install underfloor heating to avoid unnecessary oppression.
At the same time, when installing underfloor heating, the overall structure and floor height of the house should also be taken into account to ensure that the installation will not have an adverse impact on the living environment.
Short service life
After 2-4 years of operation, the floor heating system is prone to the accumulation of limescale in the floor heating pipes.
These scales can affect the normal operation of the underfloor heating system, reduce the heating effect, and may even lead to system failure.
In order to keep the underfloor heating system in good working order, regular cleaning is necessary. Failure to clean the underfloor heating pipes for a long time can lead to clogged pipes, affecting the flow of hot water, which in turn affects the indoor temperature.
Therefore, it is recommended that users clean the floor heating pipes in time after using floor heating for 2-4 years to ensure the normal operation of the system and heating effect.
