Underfloor heating is a form of central heating that uses heat
conductivity and radiant heat for indoor climate control. It can
be used with concrete and wooden floors and with all types of
flooring. It warms the lower part of both the room and the body
giving off a feeling of natural warmth. Most systems are either
warm water systems or electric systems. Systems can be a poured
floor system, in which the system is encapsulated in a masonry
mix, or it can be a sub floor system in which it is attached
directly to the subfloor. While there are differences and
similarities between the two systems, both are energy efficient,
space saving, and fitter than conventional heating systems.
Water underfloor heating consists of warm water being circulated
through pipes or tubes that are set into the floor. Since this
system allows water to circulate by thermosiphon, it is
prostrate to blockage by air bubbles that accumulate in the high
spots and block the flow of water. A ticker will need to be used
for purging to allow
