Home Improvement: Heat-Insulated Floor

Electric floor with heating system is a large working panel that emits soft, comfortable warmth for people. Heat source is a low-temperature heat cable, built-in array of the floor. It is controlled by the small-sized automatic thermostat – the only visible part of the installation. Everything else is invisible, quiet, comfortable, and environmentally friendly.

When installing the system on a flat concrete surface of rough floor a layer of insulation or special foil (so that heat does not go down) is laid, the heating cable section is put evenly on the top. Then, the system is filled with sand-cement mortar with floor cover on the top.

The advantages of this type of space heating is the lack of radiators; efficiency of floor heating as high as 98%. Another important advantage – ease of installation and no extra costs requires.
