Radiant floor heating under the tiles - a complex system in the service of your comfort

specifications and features underfloor heating

This floor has a number of advantages over the convector heating systems, namely, heat transfer occurs from the surface, which will ensure proper distribution of heat;no unsightly radiators;ability to control temperature, avoiding the occurrence of cold spots or overheated;ease of manufacturability and significantly reduces the costs of installation.

Laying warm water under the floor tiles are often surprising, because a coating of tiles is always associated with a cold.Despite this, the tile has excellent heat-conducting properties and it can be installed on a warm floor without hesitation and doubt.

However, its installation is characterized by its own peculiarities.It is necessary to acquire a smooth tile because in the application of the heat transfer from the rough floor is reduced by 1.5 times.To avoid peeling tiles warm floor is laid without voids.When buying tiles for these purposes must take into account its physical properties.

first phase of installation of water floor heating under the tiles

Radiant floor under tiles with their hands is difficult to mount, you will need some skills.Work should begin with the installation of the collector cabinet.On average, the cabinet dimensions are 60h40h12 cm, mounted it on the wall, so to begin to knock in the wall cavity size.Usually it is installed directly on the floor.The collector cabinet mounted adjustment elements, and there is dock home heating system with a heating circuit.

After mounting the collector cabinet it infest flow and return pipes.The feed pipe is hot water from the boiler and the return, in contrast, collects water that has passed on the heating system and its heat, and lead it back to the boiler for heating.

For continuous circulation of the circulating pump is responsible.On each of the pipes need to install shut-off valve .The valves allow safely disconnected from the heating system required part of the house, without prejudice to the other heating facilities, for example, to conserve or repair.

Next to the valves need to connect the manifold to the side entrance which is connected via fittings Metal-floor heating circuit.By the edge of the reservoir, opposite the valve, is connected to the automatic coupler vozduhovodchikom and drain valve.

Mount

heating system After the collector assembly of the cabinet to do the most water-heating system.The base is cleaned of debris and leveled.Perfectly smooth surface is not a necessity, but a significant drop in the level of sex would lead to uneven temperatures.Next, spread out on the floor waterproofing film, which prevents the absorption of moisture from the lower levels.

To compensate for thermal expansion of the screed on the perimeter glued special damping tape.To reduce heat loss due to the absorption of its floor is laid on the surface layer of insulation.This can be expanded polystyrene, foam, cork and other technical.

Further there is pipe-laying, which are attached to the floor by special clips in increments of 1 m. The beginning of the tube is attached to the manifold, and there is styling.The recommended length of stacked circuit - 60 m if the value is exceeded, it is necessary to start laying a new path.Mount the hinges must be in increments of 15-20 cm. After the completion of the remaining end of the pipe is connected to the collector.

sex Pouring cement-sand mixture is made in finding the path to the working pressure.The thickness of the tie -. At least 5 cm of its drying time is about 20 days, after which you can proceed to the installation of tiles.If it remains unclear how to lay tile floor heating under the water, the video will help you understand the technical nuances.
