Floor heating

-This is an increasingly popular way to heat your home.

This type of heating is best envisaged before building a new house due to the lack of later problems with floor heights or installation problems.

There are two types of this heating :

• Water heating – these are loops of pipes sunk in a layer of concrete in which, for example, water flows. combining this system with a heat pump the savings increase

• Electric heating – special wires or heat mats are placed in the floor through which current flows

   

Each of these solutions has its advantages and disadvantages.

Water heating – although it is a more expensive type of installation, it translates into lower operating costs compared to its electric counterpart. Additionally, the possibility of combining this system with a heat pump makes the savings even greater. However, it is a hard system to control because of the medium used for heating. Water underfloor heating takes a long time to heat the floor but also maintains the temperature for a long period.

Electric heating – it is accepted that this type of heating is better in buildings used periodically, because there is no possibility of damaging the installation when the users are absent. Additionally, it is a better solution when we want to insulate an existing building or room, e.g. during a renovation. The advantage of this type of heating is the possibility to regulate the temperature by means of temperature sensors or thermostats. It can also be used as a support for already existing heating elements.
