If you trust statistics, then in Europe about ninety percent of the houses are equipped with a “warm sex” system. Most residents of the Russian Federation do not even know about the existence of this system. In this article, you can emphasize a lot of interesting things for yourself about the “warm floors”. So, let’s start with the definition. Warm floors are called a system with a source of thermal energy, which is located between the base of the floor and the flooring itself. Such floors, depending on the energy carrier, are divided into two types: 1.electric; 2.Water. As shown in practice, in rooms with such floors, people feel much more comfortable than in the room with an ordinary floor. It’s how to compare the button phone and the latest Samsung Galaxy Grand. This is very easy to explain.
Firstly, for any person, the most optimal distribution of heat is: at the level of the legs, the temperature should be at least 26 degrees, and at the head level-at least 19 degrees.
Secondly, when we use ordinary floors and heating systems, the completely opposite result comes out. That is why we are so often cold (especially in winter, and many have a habit of walking barefoot on the cold floor).
Now back to the warm floors that have a lot of advantages. One of the main features of the warm sexes is their air permeability, and in other words they simply do not create drafts, which will perfectly affect your health, especially in winter. The next advantage is that the warm floor needs to heat up to only 30 degrees and any person will be comfortable in such a room. We mentioned above that such a system can be of two types.
Let’s look at each view separately. First, let’s talk about the electrical system of warm floors. In this system of heat sources will be an electric cable. The cable is connected to the network through the thermostat. This device is absolutely safe from a fire point of view, since all the wiring is in multi -layer insulation. The advantages are: low cost, light installation, ease of operation. Now consider a water warm floor. As already understood from the name, water will serve as a source of heat in this system. The pipes of such a heat floor are laid in a screed, so for this system you can use absolutely any floor covering. To warm up the entire room, it is enough to heat the water to 30 degrees. But there are also minuses in the water system – this is the complexity of installation. So the choice of a system of warm sexes remains with you.
