Infrared warm floor under linoleum

To lay linoleum is quite simple. This coating is durable and is not afraid of water. But what about those who have small children in the house? The warm floor under linoleum is an excellent solution. The installation of electrical and water floors requires the pouring of cement screed. But you can simplify the task: select under linoleum infrared film, which will ensure the optimal temperature regime.

The film emitting infrared rays has a thickness of 0.4 mm. The black heating element is made of graphite. Graphite bands are located inside a transparent film of polyester.

The use of graphite is associated with its high thermal conductivity and low electromagnetic radiation. Heating of the blade takes place when connected to the network through a thermostat. Warm film floors reduce the cost of heating, because the rays do not heat the air, but the objects.

Power

Linoleum requires a uniform and smooth heating, so the power per 1 square meter should be no more than 150 volts. Then during heating, the functional and decorative properties of PVC coatings remain unchanged. If this condition is not met, then some unpleasant moments are possible:

  • Swelling of the material;
  • Change of color in the place of heating;
  • Allocation of harmful substances;
  • Softening and susceptibility to rupture.

A professional electrician will help to correctly calculate the materials and properly carry out the installation. And work on the preparation of the foundation and linoleum flooring can be done independently.

Warm flooring for linoleum: materials

  • Infrared thermo film;
  • Insulation, contact clamps;
  • Thermoregulators;
  • Temperature sensors;
  • Heat-reflecting material;
  • wiring;
  • Scotch;
  • Fiberboard.

It is important to know! Under the linoleum you need to build a material that reflects heat, with a soft layer. It is strictly forbidden to use materials based on aluminum foil.

Infra-red warm floor under linoleum: advantages

This floor is combined with all types of linoleum. It provides gentle heating, which does not affect the performance and appearance of the coating. This system is different simple installation, which can be done by a common man in the street. And due to the flexibility of the film, you can lay the floor on horizontal, inclined and vertical surfaces.

The warm floor under linoleum is reliable and resistant to damage. The polymer film can not be corroded for an extended period of time. If necessary, a part of the floor is mounted to heat the place of the animal or mirror. Infrared radiation has beneficial effects on humans and treats about 30 diseases.

Mounting Features

First, you need to outline the location of the thermostats and the film. If the floor is uneven, then it needs to be leveled. With the help of adhesive tape, the material is laid, which reflects the heat. The strips of the thermofilm are laid on the heat-reflecting layer with the copper side down. The flooring of the thermal film is made with observance of safety measures and by special technology.

Infrared warm floors for linoleum are only gaining popularity. But those who installed them, exploit them for several years and are satisfied with the pleasant warmth.
