How to choose underfloor heating for villa, duplex, and self-built houses with large floor areas?
Electric Underfloor Heating Usage Instructions:
1. After the installation of the ground heating system, gradually increase the temperature 24 hours later. Ensure the floor is clean and dry before heating to prevent cracking or warping due to rapid temperature rise.
2. When using radiant heating for the first time or after a long period of non-use, set the temperature low initially and then gradually increase it at a rate of about 1℃ per hour. This allows the wooden floor to gradually acclimate to the temperature rise. Rapid heating may cause the wooden floor to expand and distort, leading to cracking and reducing its lifespan.
3. Avoid fixing decorative items or placing furniture without legs on the wooden floors used for geothermal heating. This prevents uneven heat distribution and trapped heat in the floor, which can easily cause warping due to inconsistent heating.
Installation Standards for Electric Floor Heating
The installation process for electric underfloor heating is similar to low-temperature water underfloor heating. After the ground installation of electric underfloor heating is complete, only a thermostat needs to be installed on the indoor wall. For low-temperature water underfloor heating, a boiler and a manifold valve are required after the ground installation is completed.
Electric underfloor heating is also safe to use. It has been tested with a high voltage of 4000 volts, while domestic voltage is only around 220 volts. The heating element has double-layer protection and additional electromagnetic wave shielding grounding protection. In case of any leakage, the main power supply in your home will immediately shut off. The product lifespan exceeds 50 years. Electric underfloor heating has large-scale project cases in buildings across China and worldwide.
The decorative layer above the electric underfloor heating can be chosen from: tiles, marble, engineered wood flooring, solid wood flooring (self-regulating heating cables can be used for solid wood flooring).
The electric floor heating market has entered a mature development phase, with floor heating companies growing increasingly sophisticated and robust. The market is gradually shaping into a well-rounded and scaled-up scenario. The rise of this heating method has added comfort, warmth, environmental friendliness, and fashion to residential living spaces, gaining societal recognition.
Installation Process for Electric Underfloor Heating
Before installing electric radiant floor heating, test the nominal resistance and insulation resistance of the heating cable.
2. For ground insulation, heat cable insulated boards can be used. If the ground has high humidity, apply a layer of waterproofing membrane first, followed by the insulation material.
3. Laying a layer of reflective aluminum foil over the thermal insulation material can act as a heat reflector.
4. A layer of metal mesh is laid over the reflective aluminum foil layer, aimed at preventing the installed thermal cable from being pressed into the insulating material and enhancing the ground's compressive strength.
5. Begin by evenly laying the heating cable segments on the metal mesh according to the pre-designed cable layout, starting from the power terminal, and tie them every 250mm. Ensure the heating cables do not cross or overlap. Then, cover and encase the heating cables with concrete uniformly, with a thickness of approximately 20-30mm, and finally lay tiles and other flooring materials.
