Is it necessary to install floor heating in home decoration?

Now more and more families are installing floor heating. Let me answer your question about whether there is radiation in the floor heating first. Floor heating is to lay pipes under the floor and adjust the temperature through the circulating flow of hot water. The water itself has no radiation, and the water collector is made of copper. Since the pipeline is allowed to be produced by the state, there should be no radiation and it can be used safely. Let me tell you the advantages and disadvantages of floor heating:

The advantages of warmth

① Comfort, sanitation and health care: radiant floor heating is the most comfortable heating method, with uniform indoor surface temperature and gradually decreasing room temperature from bottom to top, giving people a good feeling of warming their feet and cooling their heads; It is not easy to cause polluted air convection and the indoor air is clean; Improve blood circulation and promote metabolism.

② Save space and beautify the living room: cancel the radiator and its branch pipes indoors, increase the usable area, facilitate the decoration and home layout, and reduce the sanitary dead angle.

(3) Efficient and energy-saving: the radiation heating mode has higher thermal efficiency than the convection heating mode, and the heat is concentrated at the height that the human body benefits; The heat loss during transmission is small; Low-temperature floor radiant heating can be controlled by layers, households and rooms, and users can adjust it according to the situation, which is effective in saving energy.

(4) Good thermal stability: the ground with warm floor and concrete floor have large thermal storage capacity and good thermal stability. In the case of intermittent heating, the indoor temperature changes slowly.

⑤ Low operating cost: Compared with other heating equipment, it can save energy by about 20%, and can make full use of low-temperature hot water resources or use electricity price policy to reduce operating cost.

⑥ Long service life: In low-temperature floor heating, plastic pipes or heating cables are buried underground, with good stability, no corrosion and no man-made damage, and the service life is synchronous with the building. Compared with convection heating, it saves maintenance and replacement costs.

⑦ Strong adaptability: The equipment is not affected by outdoor temperature, which greatly prolongs the service life of the heating system.

Disadvantages of floor heating: 1, occupying a floor height of about 3-8 cm (different insulation materials and floor heating pipes, different construction schemes and methods have different effects on the floor height). 2. The floor heating is poorly maintainable. The floor heating is a concealed project and difficult to maintain. When decorating, we should choose high-tech environmental protection pipes with good pressure resistance, temperature resistance and corrosion resistance. Paving wooden floors will cause cracks, so it is best to use composite floors, floor tiles or marble. Because the heating pipeline of floor heating is laid underground, it is not convenient for secondary decoration, and it is easy to damage the underground pipeline when the ground is renovated. Moreover, it is not suitable to spread decorations such as carpets on the floor, otherwise it will easily affect the heating effect. The set temperature should not be too high, otherwise the service life of the pipeline will be greatly reduced. The use of bathroom is limited. Because the heating pipeline of floor heating is complicated, the floor heating coil should be waterproof before and after laying. Because of the small scope of laying toilets (such as reserved toilets, bathtubs, sewers, etc.). ), the room temperature often fails to meet the heating standard, and it needs to be supplemented by a basket (radiator). 4. When the floor heating system runs for 2-4 years, the floor heating pipeline will produce scale, which requires professional equipment to clean, otherwise it will directly affect the heating effect.
