How to make a warm floor with their hands

Unfortunately, in a city apartment is not always enough heat coming from the Central heating radiators. Especially in the offseason. So it is not superfluous to provide in the home alternative sources of heat. The best of them – the so-called warm the floor.

A warm floor is a great way to further warm the room. First, it is the most natural and effective way of heat distribution – from the bottom up. It helps evenly heat the entire room. Secondly, walking on a warm floor is very comfortable.
The warm floors there are several varieties, it is very important to choose the best option for themselves. All of these options are good, but they are designed for different operating conditions.

Floors with water heating is the most economical to operate in terms of what can be used for heating the same in hot water and radiators, no additional costs. Use water warm floor under any flooring, and heavy furniture, as the pipes for supplying water in this embodiment, is securely isolated. The cons here are: the installation of such a system is very complicated: you have to change all the existing wiring, put a special tube, usually of metal, to significantly raise the level of the floor (it takes place). Don't write about it everywhere, but for good water floor to it need more drive and pump. All of this equipment to purchase and where to place it. If the hot water is shut off, and the Underfloor heating will not work.

Electrical warm floors are devoid of these shortcomings. The level of the floor when laying of such floors or rises slightly or does not change. They are somewhat more expensive to operate because it consumes electricity. But they can be successfully adjusted, and to achieve significant savings. Electric warm floors are of two kinds: cable floors and floors with infrared films. The only thing to consider is the weight of furniture, and, if possible, under the heaviest furniture and the floors are not laid.

Cable warm floors, respectively, laid the electric cable. There are two options. Can be mounted directly to a concrete screed or buy special mats, which have all provided. These floors very effectively increase the temperature of the room, and their installation is very easy.





Cable floors are very warm, and mounting them is the easiest.

Infrared warm floors do not require raising the floor level, in the installation they are the most simple. They "work" a special film which gives infrared radiation. Film contains carbon, and the electricity passes through the edges of these fibers by special guides. Then these fibers begin to radiate heat. These floors are the most economical. They give slightly less heat than cable, but it is not perceived physically, as the property of infrared radiation is that it heats not only gender, but also any objects in the room, including man.
