Warm water floor under the laminate: what is the advantage?

This combination can be safely called one of the most successful, and the demand confirms this once again. Among the advantages of the tandem are the following:

• The temperature regime of service is low and does not exceed fifty degrees;
• The water floor under the laminate saves up to forty percent of the costs compared to traditional heating systems;
• laminate on a warm water floor refers to an environmentally friendly and sanitary-hygienic coating;
• in the process of use, you can not be afraid of the appearance of a magnetic field, which adversely affects the body;
• putting the laminate on the warm floor of the water, you will ensure a permanently dry surface, which guarantees protection from the appearance of fungus or dampness in the house.

In addition, you will definitely appreciate the uniform heating of the surface. And it also significantly extends the life of the coating. As for the shortcomings, they rest on the technology of laying. For apartments this is not the best option according to some experts. The fact is that the equipment for such heating is rather bulky: it's pumps, and boilers for pumping water. So for all this "stuffing" will have to allocate a lot of space. That is why laminate for a warm water floor is often chosen by owners of country houses and villas.

Water warm floors under the laminate: how does it work?

After you lay a laminate for water-heated floors, the heat will begin to rise up and thus warm the room a couple of degrees. Pipes for heating are laid directly in the screed , which guarantees their safety. On top put a special substrate to protect the laminate and prevent overheating of the surface. And that the laminate for the warm water floor worked only for you, and not the neighboring ceiling or the ground, a special insulating layer is laid under the bottom, so that all the heat will go to the room.

The warm floor water under the laminate works at low temperature and never heats above 50 ° C, so the savings are obvious. In addition, due to the fact that during operation such a system does not form convective currents, the settling of dust and its formation will noticeably decrease.
