Copper pipe for underfloor heatin

The system "warm floor" is a low-temperature and therefore has a number of advantages over other (high-temperature) heating systems, as for space heating needs coolant (water) with a lower temperature than in the radiators. The benefits include, firstly, the savings due to less water heater. Secondly, the heating surface is comfortable for human�s temperature. Third, the location of the winning system, which does not spoil the view of the room (which is not true of the radiator).
"Warm floor" system may seem disadvantageous due to the high cost of materials, copper pipe for floor heating is quite expensive, but calculations show that the cost of mounting the stage are in fact much less savings achieved during the several heating phases.
Care should be taken when selecting materials for the floor heating. First of all, copper pipe for floor heating must be of high quality, t. To. It is laid "forever", the error at the stage of planning can lead to the fact that all the advantages of the system described above will be reduced to zero.
Copper pipe for underfloor heating has a number of advantages over its "opponents" (plastic and plastic pipes):
- The thermal conductivity coefficient of copper is much higher than other materials, which means increase in the proportion of heat transfer from the coolant to the heated environment;
- Copper pipe for floor heating is not oxidized and does not rust over time (as we know, copper nails were used even when plating wooden ships);
- Easy to achieve the desired shape (after copper pipe for underfloor heating is needed as a straight and curved).
When installing floor heating is used as a copper pipe for water supply and sanitary copper tube. Assembly takes a decision on the choice of one or the other option on site at the customer, because each version is unique both in size of the room, and on the thermal load. The important factor is to calculate the heat load space, because it is better to perform a few simple operations, to calculate all the heat losses and to take into account sources of heat radiation than after pouring screed and the completion of the installation of the system is constantly adjusted.
