How to Install an Underfloor Heating System
What is the Working Principle of an Underfloor Heating System?
One of the most trending applications in recent years, the underfloor heating system provides comfortable heating in indoor and outdoor spaces.
How is it Applied?
The basis of this system, which is based on heating from the floor, is formed by underfloor heating pipes or electric cables applied under the floor. The electric cable underfloor heating system converts electrical energy into heat. The water pipe system, on the other hand, converts energy from sources such as combi boilers, boilers, and solar energy into heat. The system provides up to 30% energy savings compared to other heating systems. While hot air collects at a specific point in radiator systems, it is evenly distributed throughout the space in this system. The system can be applied during the construction phase or renovation phase. The most ideal approach is to apply it to spaces that are still under construction. Otherwise, the system cost will be higher. After the underfloor heating insulation, which is laid under the screed, is fixed with water pipes, screed concrete is poured over it, and the flooring material is applied. The heat control of the system is done through thermostats. Underfloor heating systems are also used in outdoor areas such as roofs, gutters, sports fields, etc. In outdoor areas, the electric underfloor heating system is applied against snow and ice.
