The correct use of water floor heating Precautions for the use of water floor heating

How to use the newly installed water floor heating

1. Steps to turn on the water floor heating

First pass 25-30 °C water, open the valve between the floor water supply pipe and the return water pipe, so that the return water enters the floor water supply pipe, after a week of operation, the water supply temperature will increase by 5-10°C every week until the water supply temperature reaches 60-65° C, it can run normally.

To adjust the room temperature, the water temperature of the floor heating system and the amount of water entering the system should be adjusted according to the outdoor temperature. High outside air temperatures reduce the amount of water in the system and lower the temperature of the water supply, and vice versa.

2. Precautions for the first use of water floor heating

When you use floor heating for the first time, it is best to set the temperature to 18 degrees, and then connect to electricity to run , to ensure the normal operation of the thermostat until it is actively disconnected. The function of this step is to expel the cold radiation from the interior walls and ground of the room, so that the floor heating system can operate normally. Only by using the floor heating in the correct way can the service life of the floor heating be extended.

3. The correct method of water and geothermal water release

During the first operation of the hydrothermal floor heating system, due to the water resistance pressure in the pipeline, it is easy to generate gas. plug, and then cause the phenomenon that the supply and return water does not circulate and the temperature is not equal. At this time, each circuit should be exhausted one by one.

Periodically check whether the filters, valves, thermometers, pressure gauges, etc. can be used normally during operation, since the creep characteristics of the pipe due to the influence of temperature and pressure. During the heating period, a special person should re-tighten the sub-catchment, front-end valves and connectors several times, and regularly clean the impurities in the filter. If it is damaged, it should be repaired and used again.

During the initial and future use of water floor heating, the ground must be dry (it can be judged by experimental phenomena), and the moisture content of the cement floor should preferably be lower than 1.5%; There is geothermal heating, and the ambient humidity is preferably around 60 degrees before and after installation.

The correct way to boil water and floor heating by yourself

1. Connect all the pipes of floor heating according to the instructions;

2. Exhaust the air in the pipeline and control the internal pressure between 0.8 and 2.5;

3. Open the corresponding valve and temperature control switch;

4. Open the boiler switch and adjust the Good temperature;

5. Control the water pressure when heating up, and check whether there will be water leakage.

Frequently asked questions about the use of water floor heating

1. Energy saving methods for water floor heating

Temperature regulation: Temperature control is a very important step in energy saving for water heating, so what temperature range is the most energy efficient? When the temperature is controlled at 16~20°C, it is the most energy-saving, and the human body feels the most comfortable within this temperature range. Therefore, users do not need to adjust the temperature too high when adjusting the temperature.

Better water quality and more energy-saving: The water quality of the water floor heating has a great impact on the water floor heating. Generally, for families with installed water floor heating, we will recommend installing one more home water purification system. The main purpose is to remove the impurities that can form scale in the tap water, so that the water is not easy to scale when it flows in the floor heating pipe. At the same time, it also ensures the longevity of water heating.

2. What is the temperature standard for water and floor heating

(1) The average temperature of the floor surface

For the ground where people often stay, the temperature should be 24℃-26℃, and the upper limit of temperature should be 28℃.

The ground where people stay for a short time should be 28℃-30℃, and the upper limit of temperature should be 32℃.

The water-floor heating floor without people staying should be 35℃-40℃, and the upper temperature limit is 42℃.

(2) Supply and return water temperature

The upper limit of water supply temperature is 60℃, 65℃, 70℃, 75℃, etc. Considering safety and service life, the water temperature of water floor heating in civil buildings should not exceed 60°C.

The temperature difference between supply and return water should be less than or equal to 10℃.

3. Do you need to release water when the water floor heating is not used?

No, because the water remaining in the pipeline will not affect the use of other functions, let alone It will affect daily life, and at the same time maintain the balance of water pressure, so as to protect the pipeline, so there is no need to release water when not in use. In addition, the water in the pipe is separated from the water for other functions, so it will not cause adverse effects if the water is not drained.

4. Do you need to pay for water and floor heating?

Generally speaking, you need to pay for it, and you don’t need it if you don’t need it. But what I want to remind is that even if your house is closed, as long as the floor heating upstairs and downstairs is turned on, the indoor temperature of the house that is not turned on can still be above ten degrees, and the family who has turned on the floor heating will still have a relative effect. Down is not so good.

5. Maintenance of water floor heating pipes

After the water floor heating system stops running, it is usually filled with water for maintenance. This is done by draining the water from the network and flushing the network (including heating coils). This is because the water in the boiler pipes contains a lot of tiny particles such as slime, impurities, rust, etc., and the water quality is turbid. The inner diameter of the water and floor heating pipe network is very small. After the boiler stops gas and the water pump stops running, the original sewage impurities will stay in the pipe network for 7 months. Therefore, after the heating period is over, it is recommended that users should professionally clean their own water floor heating system, rinse the pipe network, and then refill the pipe network with treated water and burn the boiler. After venting, close all valves in the system, shut down the furnace and turn off the fire, let the water cool down gradually, and keep the water in the pipe network of the system until the next heating period begins.
