With the latest technological progress, heated flooring has diversified and adapted to the most used heating methods found today. There are two techniques presently in use: electric and water.<\/span><\/p>\n

Electric floor heating<\/h4>\n

The installation of electric floor heating is based on a prior heating calculation. The installation of the <\/span>electric floor heating then passes through different stages: installation of insulation, installation of heating cable, and monitoring \u2013 it is carried out step by step and is controlled by an electromechanical or electronic thermostat.<\/span><\/p>\n

Water floor heating: more economical<\/h4>\n

The water floor heating is currently the most economical heating system to operate. It can work with different heating methods: with heating only or with heating and air conditioning. The network of tubes, more dense than in past methods, can be powered by various types of heat generators: boiler, heat pump or even solar energy. In any case, a water floor heating project should be subject to a prior study that will be implemented by measuring the floor heating and the layout plan. Finally, the project will take shape with the installation of underfloor heating, through following steps: laying the collector, insulation, laying the pipes, connecting pipes to collectors.<\/span><\/p>\n

Underfloor heating is the most used radiant heating system. This system can also be applied in the walls\u2026 and even the ceilings!<\/span><\/p>\n

Benefits of radiant floor<\/h4>\n

\u2022 System Very comfortable, no noise , odor or dust movements.<\/span>
\n<\/span>\u2022 The heat is very well distributed in the room.<\/span>
\n<\/span>\u2022 No visible system flexibility for the distribution of the furniture.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tips: No carpets or mattresses on the floor!<\/span><\/h4>\n

In order not to cause thermal blocking which prevents the heat to flow, keep a 3cm gap between the floor and furniture items. For example, placing a mattress on the floor is not recommended.
\nFor safety reasons, avoid wooden floors and plastic flooring and go for mineral-based material with good inertia (ability to retain heat) such as ceramic, terracotta or slate. Carpets are not recommended as they transmit floor heat poorly.<\/span><\/p>\n
