Infrared warm floor, or as it is often called – film warm floor, this is a wonderful choice in many situations. Unlike alternatives, this technology does not imply the creation of a concrete screed. That is, the installation of such a system is quite simple and economical, but at the same time the customer receives all the advantages of a warm floor.
Film warm floor in essence electric. Nothing special is required to install it, it is connected to a standard network of 220 volts.
From the traditional electric floor, the film is distinguished by the method of heating. Such a heater gives infrared radiation, which is the source of heat.
By the way, infrared radiation has its own characteristics. If the traditional warm floor heats mainly the air itself in the room, then the infrared warm floor heats the physical objects surrounding it, and the air is already heated from them.
The film floor is very economical compared to analogues. The design itself will cost inexpensively, because it is not necessary to make the screed at all, and the heating contour in the form of a film is moderately. In addition, the graphic rods that produce heat, despite their high heat transfer, are not consuming a lot of electricity. Economic benefit when using a warm film floor is obvious.
Film warm floor is sold in rolls. When buying, measure and cut off a piece of the required size, which is very convenient. There is no need to lay out a “snake” yourself, as you have to do when arranging a traditional electric warm floor.
As for components, they are best purchased in the kit. Almost any company or store selling a film floor is ready to offer at the same time and all components. But sometimes it will be cheaper to purchase everything separately.
The warm film floor includes the film itself with graphite rods, electrical wiring, special clamp (terminal), insulating materials and thermal regulator. By the way, as for the latter, very often it is given to choose from.
When arranging a warm film floor, it is always better to contact specialists who will carry out such work at the highest level and will not make all the mistakes that inevitably arise among inexperienced masters. Moreover, most companies that sell film warm floor offer such services. The styling services themselves are not so much money, since it is more important for the company to implement the product itself, and not the laying service that goes as if in the kit to it.
