A variety of choice of warm floors and their distinctive characteristics
All wooden coatings are considered warm. However, they are not always able to provide the desired level of comfort. When it comes to covering floors on a loggia or on a terrace in a private house, or in the house itself, even such a warm material as wood is not enough to create heat and comfort. In such cases, it is appropriate to use the “warm floor” system, and the finish coating can be any.
And yet, most often, during the construction of warm floors, laminate is used, it is light, durable and easily mounted. There are several types of heating systems: water, cable, film and actually a warm laminate with a built -in heating system.
Let us dwell on the latter version. This is a floor covering in which heating elements are already mounted. In addition, such a floor is additionally supplied with a substrate for better soundproofing.
The acquisition of such material is basically justified, since instead of three different components you buy one. Installation is made much faster, and the “warm floor” inside the coating increases the heat transfer by 30%. But it will be possible to save on such coating on electricity, because the price of this laminate is quite high.
Today the installation of a warm floor is not uncommon. Many seek to make their home more comfortable. Depending on financial capabilities, you can use any heating systems. But if we consider this issue with the perspective, it is better to spend a little more during the repair than to pay for your cordenability for years.
