Top Five Reasons for Installing Underfloor Heating
Underfloor heating can bring warmth and comfort to your homes on cold winter days and offer a number of benefits when compared to conventional heating systems, in terms of more comfortable, safer and healthier conditions.
Uniform Heating
Unlike conventional heating systems, underfloor heating which uses a combination of radiation, convection and convection heating, results in a more uniform heat distribution. With conventional systems usually the warm air rises to the top of the room and as a result only the ceiling becomes warm, leaving the rest unheated. But this is not the case with underfloor heating . As a result this method enables a more comfortable atmosphere. Due to the fact that the heat released is radiant heat, it is emitted gradually, absorbed by human bodies and objects, allowing very little to escape, so that the heat is retained for longer periods of time.
A More Sustainable Energy Form
Underfloor heating, because of the method in which the heat is transmitted requires less energy to keep a given space warm, when compared to conventional central heating systems. Most modern buildings are using this method of heating and cooling in their new constructions. Also this is a safer form of heating, since the heating devices are placed underground or embedded in concrete, with no surfaces being exposed. As a result there is less chance of dangers such as burns occurring. Further, space above ground is not utilised by heating units.
Better Air Quality
Underfloor heating is believed to result in a healthier air quality when compared to more conventional forms of home and building heating systems. In cold climates, the preferred flooring is usually material like carpeting and wooden floors, which are warmer by themselves. However, in cold and damp weather, such material can trap allergy and disease spreading organisms. With underfloor heating, one can use healthier flooring such as tiles, concrete or terrazzo floors. Further, with appropriate temperature being maintained close to the floor surface, there is also less chance of mould, fungus, dust mites and bacteria being able to successfully breed.
If you are planning to install electric underfloor heating in a room of your house, you must make sure that you have the adequate knowledge before you begin and that you only purchase the material from a reputed store that sells the best quality supplies and comes with a warranty. If you plan to redo your entire home and put in new electric underfloor heating, it might be best to bring in the experts to do so. Though this is a very safe method of heating spaces, one of the most important things to remember during installation is that there are no cracks or seepage points that will result in rain or other moisture entering the space and causing a short circuit.
