Is it good to install underfloor heating in the south
Many friends will ask if it is necessary to install heating in the south? Heating can also be installed in the south. The winter in the south is cloudy and cold, and the water vapor in the air is relatively large, so it feels colder. The cold is more difficult to endure than the dry and cold in the north, and many people will suffer from frostbite in winter. Moreover, the climate in the south has changed abnormally in recent years. Snow and freezing rain have occurred in some areas of the south. Installing floor heating can better remove indoor moisture and increase the indoor temperature at the same time. Floor heating is a more comfortable heating method. Floor heating is slow and lasts for a long time, which is more suitable for flooding in the rainy season in southern winter. The following are the reasons why the south is suitable for installing floor heating:
1. The somatosensory temperature in the south is low
The first is people’s pursuit of a comfortable living environment and heating methods. The temperature of southerners in winter is often much lower than that of the north, and this wet and cold is more uncomfortable than the dry cold in the north. And the winter in the south will be accompanied by rainy weather for several days in a row, and the air is very humid. Cold and dampness can easily lead to rheumatoid arthritis, which is simply a disaster for the elderly and children with relatively poor physical fitness. If you do a good job of keeping warm, you can inhibit rheumatoid arthritis to a certain extent.
2. Impact of harsh environment
In recent years, due to the increasingly harsh environment, climate extremes often occur. It is very hot in winter, and there is snowfall in many places in the south in winter, so in order to adapt to the changes in the environment, it is necessary to install heating in the south.
3. Improvement of economic conditions
In the past, economic conditions were average, and people did not pay much attention to hot and cold weather, but with the development of economic conditions, With the continuous improvement of living standards, more and more people choose floor heating with better heating effect for a more comfortable life. Floor heating is becoming a weapon for people to improve their quality of life.
4. Heating is more comfortable than air conditioners
In the past, the heating method in the south was to install dual-purpose air conditioners, which were inexpensive and easy to use. But we all know that the strength of air conditioning is cooling, and heating is only a sub-item of it. The air conditioner heats the air and raises the indoor air temperature by means of forced convection. The air in the room is hot on the top and cold on the bottom, which is easy to cause “air conditioning disease”, the comfort is low, and it is greatly affected by the external environment. Underfloor heating increases the temperature of the entire room by heating the ground and radiating from the ground. The indoor temperature is uniform, in line with the ideal heating curve of the human body, and the comfort is high.
5. Choose whether to install it according to the region
Whether it is necessary to install floor heating in the south of course depends on the local temperature and your own needs. The range of the south is very large. Guangdong is the south, Hainan is the south, Jiangxi is the south, and Hubei is also the south. The temperature in these regions is different in winter. If it feels necessary, it is more comfortable to install a heater. The north is forced heating, the south is not required, heating on demand. Therefore, the southern region can install heating according to their own home needs.
Which one is better to install radiator or floor heating in the south
When installing heating equipment in the south, there are usually radiators, electric floor heating, and water circulation floor heating. Electric floor heating is easy to use and can be heated by electricity at any time. The thermostat can automatically adjust the temperature and has an automatic power-off function, but it is difficult to install and maintain. The floor of the water floor heating is heated evenly, and it is not dry and comfortable. However, the floor structure of the water floor heating is an insulation layer, a heating layer, and a heat storage layer, which will occupy the height of the floor during installation. The radiator has good heat dissipation effect, convenient use, stable quality, and convenient maintenance in the later period, but the heating method of the radiator makes the indoor temperature uneven and the comfort is poorer.
In fact, both floor heating and radiators can be used. It is better to install floor heating or radiators in the south. The specific choice is generally based on the actual situation. The following is a detailed introduction to the difference between floor heating and radiators from various aspects:
1. Appearance comparison
Radiator: The radiator is hung on the wall Yes, it will be about 15cm wide.
Floor heating: buried under the floor, about 5-6cm thick.
2. Comparison of heat dissipation methods
Radiator: The radiator mainly heats the indoor air through convection heat dissipation, it heats up Quick, you can close it as you want.
Floor heating: The floor heating uses the entire ground as a heat dissipation surface, and is mainly radiative heat dissipation. It heats up very slowly. Generally, it is not recommended to turn it off, otherwise it will heat up too slowly.
3. Installation comparison
Radiator: The installation time of the radiator is flexible, and it can be installed in both new and old houses.
Floor heating: The installation of floor heating is more complicated. Generally, it is installed together during the decoration. If the decoration is completed, it is not recommended to install floor heating.
4. Cost comparison
In general, the cost of floor heating will be more expensive, and the difference mainly depends on the floor heating pipes and radiators you use. brand.
5. Comparison of cleaning and care
Radiator: Because of long-term exposure, in daily life, the radiator needs to be cleaned and protected.
Floor heating: The floor heating is not exposed under the ground, so you don’t need to take care of it when cleaning.
6. Post-maintenance comparison
Radiator: Because it is exposed, maintenance is relatively simple.
Floor heating: If the water pipes or other parts are broken, the bricks must be lifted and the ground must be lifted, so the quality of the floor heating must be strictly controlled.
7. Comparison of comfort and efficiency
Floor heating conforms to the human body’s heating habits and is very comfortable, but floor heating heats up slowly.
The radiator heats up quickly, and the heating efficiency is very high, but the comfort is inferior to floor heating.
8. Comparison of users
The radiator can be used at any time, suitable for office workers who go home in the morning and evening.
If the floor heating is turned on, it will not be turned off for a winter. It will reach the set temperature about 2 to 3 days for the first time, which is suitable for long-term people at home.
Which heating installation is more economical in the south? The cost of installing radiators in the south
The installation price of radiator heating is high, but the cost of use is low
The initial installation cost: about 20,000-25,000 yuan ( 100 square meters)
Gas consumption cost: 1100 to 1350 yuan per month, many families choose to install radiators for heating. Radiators are classified according to energy sources, and there are also types such as natural gas, electricity, and heat pumps. Generally speaking, the radiator is more expensive than the floor heating of the same heat source, but the energy consumption is lower. After turning on the radiator, it only takes an hour to achieve the heating effect. The biggest advantage of the radiator is that it can be installed on the surface, not affected by the radiator, and can also bake clothes, which is very suitable for young people who live a fast-paced life.
The cost of installing floor heating in the south
The initial installation cost of floor heating is determined according to the area, but the use cost is high
The initial installation cost: about 18,000-20,000 yuan (100 square meters)
p>
Gas consumption cost: Take the use of natural gas floor heating as an example, the water temperature required for water floor heating to dissipate heat is 50°C to 60°C, so that 100 houses are heated to 20°C, and the daily gas consumption is about 20 cubic meters. The gas price in Beijing is 2.3 yuan per cubic meter, so it will cost about 40-50 yuan to use floor heating every day. If calculated on a monthly basis, the price of using floor heating is about 1,200 to 1,500 yuan.
