Creating a normal microclimate in the house, you need to strive to, so that an even distribution of heat occurs when heating the room. As is known, warm air rises to the top, while flooring is the coldest area. The temperature difference in one room is often quite significant. This brings considerable discomfort and can become a source of colds for people in it.. Even heat distribution, constant coming from below, provides the required heat exchange. And so that the heating system works with maximum efficiency, good thermal insulation is required for a warm water floor system.
Types of thermal insulation for underfloor heating
There are the following types of thermal insulation for a warm water floor:
- Cork backing - environmentally friendly dense insulation material, rollable. The scope is limited by the maximum room height (when laying insulation, the height of the floor screed reaches 3-4 cm), as well as the high price of insulation.
- Polypropylene - you- and thermal insulation coating with a closed structure in the form of cells. Not hygroscopic. Excellent processing. Able to withstand temperatures over 120 degrees.
- Extruded polystyrene foam - the optimal type of thermal insulation for a water floor heating system. Has sufficient strength, weightlessness, resistance to minus and high temperatures and completely preserving its qualities with a long service life. Expanded polystyrene is not affected by aggressive factors and moisture. Resistant to fungi, and also easily assembled when laying.
