Floor heating was once the most popular heating equipment. Even if the standard delivered by developers is radiator , owners will spend a high price to convert it into floor heating. However, as floor heating becomes more and more common, its disadvantages are gradually exposed, and more and more people have begun to abandon floor heating. What is the reason? People who have used it say 7 major reasons, it is really bad!
First, floor heating has dust
When floor heating is heated, it will produce upward airflow. The floating dust in the room becomes extremely dry after being heated. When the dust becomes lighter, it will float in the air. It is easy to cause respiratory diseases when it is breathed into the human body. Therefore, families who use floor heating must clean frequently in winter and clean up dust in every corner of the room in time. It is best to use it with a humidifier, otherwise, it may cause irreversible damage to your own and your family's health over time!
Second, the maintenance cost is high
Heating water is a production water, and its cleanliness is not high. After repeated heating, some impurities in the water will adhere to the pipes. This is one of the reasons why the heating effect is declining year by year. Since the floor heating pipes are buried underground and the pipelines are arranged intricately, professionals can only clean and maintain them. There are two ways to charge on the market, which are charged according to the area or according to the floor heating circuit. The cost of cleaning once may be around hundreds of yuan.
Third, the maintenance cost is high
In order to save the cost of maintaining floor heating, some people will buy some detergents from the Internet. Since the floor heating pipes are made of plastic, they are easily corroded by inferior chemical materials, which may shorten the service life of the pipe. Since the location of the pipe break cannot be accurately positioned from the surface, they can only pry open all floors to accurately locate the fault points. In addition to the cost of floor heating maintenance, the owner also has the cost of prying and installing the floor. The project volume is large, it takes a long time and costs a lot!
, fourth, potential risks,
people go to high places, water flows to low places, floor heating is installed in the mezzanine of the floor. Once water leaks, it cannot be detected in time. It may be too late after discovering it. If the floor heating experiences large-scale water leakage, it will usually penetrate downstairs in a few hours. In severe cases, it may cause all the houses downstairs to be soaked in water, and even the sockets in the wall will seep water, which poses a great safety hazard. According to the responsibility of whoever leaks, the owners upstairs should compensate the neighbors for their losses!
Fifth, houses are heating slowly
Compared with radiators, floor heating is a slower heating method. Since the pipes of floor heating are laid in concrete, cement needs to be heated first and then heated. After the first use of floor heating or floor heating is restarted due to a fault, it may take about 24 hours to gradually release heat.
No. 6, it will destroy furniture
Wooden furniture is most avoided. Solid wood furniture, floors and floor heating are in close contact with floor heating and are "burned" by high temperature for a long time, and the floor or solid wood furniture will crack; inferior solid wood furniture will also release toxic and harmful gases under the action of high temperature. Therefore, families who prefer solid wood decoration style must not install floor heating!
No. 7, occupying the floor height of the house
Floor heating can indeed save indoor space, make the layout more reasonable, and increase the aesthetic effect, but there are advantages and disadvantages. Floor heating will occupy about 8-10 cm of floor height. If a suspended ceiling is designed during decoration, then the original floor height of 2.8 meters may be only about 2.4 meters left after decoration, and the interior will appear low and dark, which will make the residents feel depressed.
