Which is better, laminate flooring or underfloor heating?

This should be chosen according to their actual situation, but no matter what type of flooring, you must choose a big brand, I personally recommend that the brand of David flooring has been paved for two years, and it is the same as new.

First, the planning before choosing the floor can not be less.

1. Household flooring is more cost-effective than floor tiles.

Flooring is the latest popular decoration material and is cheaper than traditional floor tiles. If you want to save money by decorating the floor, you also need to consider the decoration style at home and choose the right floor according to the decoration style.

Flooring and floor tiles are found throughout the renovation and maintenance process, and flooring is more cost-effective. If there is floor heating at home, if there is a problem, the floor is removed and repaired, and then assembled. The floor tiles have to be broken and re-paved, so that they need to be purchased again.

2. Reasonably plan the floor paving area and purchase on demand.

In order to reduce the waste of flooring in the decoration process, it is best to plan the area of the floor that needs to be used, plus the number of losses, and select it to prevent the waste of excessive floor purchase. Common laying methods for flooring: three, six, nine and one-half.

The paving method of 369 is a stepped gap structure, which usually saves materials, and the material loss is about 3%; The loss of one-half paving is the largest, about 5% higher, but the ground of this kind of laying is neat and symmetrical, and the visual effect is better.

3. Plan floor paving accessories to save money.

The accessories for floor paving include floor nails, headless nails, floor glue, moisture-proof mats, and door strips; If it is a keel floor, you need an extra keel, etc. It is the accessories of the floor that occupy a very important position in the paving of the floor, and most of the after-sales problems of the floor are directly related to the floor accessories. Therefore, choosing a good flooring accessories can save future maintenance costs.

Nowadays, most of them are used for floor heating, and the floor materials on the market can be used. Commonly used floor heating includes marble, ceramic tiles, solid wood flooring, laminate flooring, etc., and the thermal conductivity of these flooring materials from large to small is: ceramic tile parquet laminate flooring laminate flooring solid wood flooring.

Multi-layer flooring, also known as multi-layer parquet, is completely available for underfloor heating and has more advantages than other types of flooring

1. The choice of geothermal floor should be decided according to the particularity of the geothermal heating method; It is suitable for repeated changes of cold and heat and is conducive to heat conduction. First, the geothermal floor should first have a small amount of deformation; Second, it should be conducive to heat conduction; 3. Moisture-resistant and waterproof.

2. In the same case, the deformation of solid wood flooring is larger than that of laminate flooring. Laminate flooring has a large amount of deformation for multi-layer parquet. The reason for the small deformation of multi-layer parquet used for geothermal heating is that its substrate is staggered horizontally and vertically between each layer, and each other is contained; There are also dense anti-deformation grooves on the back.

The stress generated by the heating surface is decomposed, so it has a small amount of deformation. The deformation of wood flooring from large to small is: solid wood flooring, laminate flooring, and solid wood parquet.

3. Multi-layer solid wood flooring, the anti-deformation groove on the back of it is conducive to air circulation and noise reduction. Thermal conductivity is superior to laminate flooring. The thermal conductivity of wood flooring materials is arranged in order from large to small: parquet "laminate flooring" solid wood flooring.

4. In winter, the indoor is dry, and the general situation will be humidified, and the moisture resistance and waterproof performance of the floor is also important. The parquet is specially treated, and the sample is soaked in water for 3-5 days without obvious deformation; Even if a large amount of water runs on the ground after installation, and the arch is soaked, as long as the doors and windows are opened and the air circulation is maintained, it will soon be restored to its original state, which solves the customer's worries that the customer cannot recover after laying other floors when encountering water. In terms of moisture resistance and water resistance, multi-layer parquet is significantly superior to other categories of flooring.

Underfloor heating is transmitted to the surface through the heat source of the ground, and the air is warmed through the radiation process. Floor heating floor, also known as floor heating floor, is a special type in the floor family, it generally refers to all floors suitable for low-temperature hot water floor heating, with good heat dissipation, heat resistance and air permeability. So is it better to choose reinforced or solid wood for floor heating?

What are the precautions for purchasing floor heating? Let's take a look.

It is better to choose reinforced or solid wood for floor heating.

Laminate flooring is recommended, not solid wood flooring. Here's why:

1. The moisture content of solid wood flooring is relatively high, as well as the texture characteristics of solid wood flooring, which are easy to cause cracking and deformation after heating.

2. Because the solid wood floor is generally to be keeled, it is not conducive to laying.

3. After the laying of floor heating with keel is completed, there is no need to backfill.

Why is it a solid wood composite and not a reinforced one. This is mainly because the formaldehyde content of solid wood composite is lower than that of reinforced composite, and the volatilization of formaldehyde after heating is relatively less. Of course, this is not absolute, it depends on the quality of the floor and the level of formaldehyde content.

If it is an E0 level reinforced compound, it should be better than an E1 level solid wood composite.

Precautions for purchasing underfloor heating floors.

Floors that can be used for geothermal heating must meet the following conditions:

1. The floor is stable in size and can withstand temperature changes without damage;

2. No deformation, cracking, small thermal expansion and contraction coefficient;

3. Environmental protection, no formaldehyde and harmful gas release;

4. Don't be afraid of soaking the floor with water (prevent the floor heating pipe from being damaged, the water from flowing out, and the floor from being damaged).

Only the floor that can meet the above conditions can be used as a geothermal floor, in general, solid wood flooring, laminate flooring for geothermal heating is not very suitable, it is best to use geothermal flooring.

The reason for the small deformation of multi-layer solid wood flooring (referred to as geothermal flooring) used for geothermal heating is that its substrate is staggered horizontally and vertically between each layer, and each other is contained; There are also dense anti-deformation grooves on the back, which dissolve the stresses generated by the heating surface, so that it has minimal deformation.

The thermal conductivity of the floor is related to the thickness of the floor, the thickness of the geothermal floor is about the same as the thickness of the laminate flooring, however, the anti-deformation groove on the back of it is conducive to air circulation, reduces noise, and the thermal conductivity is better than that of laminate flooring.

Laminate flooring is actually not recommended if you live at home, because laminate flooring will contain more formaldehyde than general wood flooring, if you install floor heating, heating will cause laminate flooring to release more formaldehyde, and you will not have much sense of security when you live at home.

Laminate flooring can be underfloor heating, but in the case of long-term heating, the formaldehyde content in laminate flooring will have an effect on the body at high temperatures. Therefore, it is recommended that consumers try to choose floors with low formaldehyde content when choosing floor heating floors, because the higher the temperature, the more formaldehyde is released, and the less toxic and harmful gases of laminate flooring, which is harmless to the human body under long-term and high temperature conditions, and it is recommended to use parquet.

Definitely. The base material of laminate flooring is made of wood fiber glue. Formaldehyde content is very high.

Decorative plywood, joinery, MDF and particleboard, wood flooring, furniture made of wood-based panels, wall coverings, formaldehyde-containing wallpapers, chemical fiber carpets, styrofoam, paints and coatings, etc. Since the formaldehyde release period of decoration and furniture is up to 3 to 15 years, it is greatly affected by temperature and humidity, and generally volatilizes from the deep layers of the material when exposed to air. High temperatures and tides seriously pollute the environment and are most harmful to the elderly, children and pregnant women.

In general, laminate flooring can last for about ten to fifteen years, and if it is well maintained, it can even last for twenty years. Laminate flooring can generally last for about fifteen years if it is laid under the bed. If laminate flooring is laid in the hallway or living room, the service life will be shorter because the floor is often trampled, and it can only be used for about ten years.

It is better to choose laminate flooring for floor heating, because laminate flooring has good wear resistance and deformation resistance, and when installed on floor heating, it can efficiently transfer heat energy and not deform. The details are as follows:

Laminate flooring has the appearance of solid wood flooring beautiful, comfortable feet, good heat preservation, at the same time, it also overcomes the solid wood floor monomer shrinkage, easy to laugh and crack and other shortcomings, is a more ideal home decoration material. Laminate flooring is made by crushing logs, adding glue, preservatives, adding bush wheel additives and other auxiliary materials, and then pressing them in a high-temperature and high-pressure environment. Laminate flooring is easy to absorb moisture, and improper installation can easily cause cracks and arching.

A lot of glue is added to the laminate flooring during processing, and the main components of the glue are formaldehyde and benzene. In the case of floor heating, the temperature increase will lead to the rapid volatilization of harmful substances such as formaldehyde, causing indoor health problems. The volatilization temperature of formaldehyde is 19, and the volatilization of formaldehyde increases by 15%-30% for every 1 higher indoor temperature.
