Is it safe to install electric underfloor heating in the bathroom?

Although the bathroom often uses water, there will be a dampness problem. But now the electric floor heating technology has been very mature, its own insulation structure is quite safe, insulation and waterproofness have their test report, in the installation combined with leakage protection and intelligent control system, can effectively ensure the safe operation of electric floor heating in the kitchen, bathroom and other humid environments. If it is a regular, quality-assured floor heating company, it must be relatively safe.

Pay attention when installing underfloor heating:

Before and after installing electric floor heating, waterproofing should be done once (twice in total). In the upper part of the filling layer of the bathroom should also be set up two layers of isolation layer, the water and floor heating insulation layer isolated, the quality of waterproof materials should be qualified, the selection of flexible materials, the construction technology should be absolutely excellent, such as non-load-bearing light wall, the whole wall should be waterproof, and the wall with shower facilities should be meters high.

Secondly, a waterproof wall needs to be set up at the entrance of the bathroom, and cooperate with the civil engineering unit to do waterproofing on the inside of the professional waterproof wall to prevent stagnant water from seeping into the insulation layer.

In addition, the spacing of heating cables should not be less than 5CM, and when the cables are laid, they should be close to toilets, baths, washbasins and other sanitary ware, and a certain distance should be left.

In addition, the bathroom should have a separate thermostat. It is not recommended to share a thermostat with other rooms for electric floor heating in the bathroom, because the bathroom is humid, and the electric floor heating must first evaporate its moisture, while other rooms are directly heated, which can easily lead to the temperature of the bathroom not going up.

Finally, in order to ensure that the floor heating of the bathroom meets the temperature requirements of winter bathing, it is recommended to choose carbon fiber electric floor heating, which can make the floor heat up quickly, and can also prevent mildew and sterilization, or increase auxiliary heating facilities, such as bath bombs, warm lamps, radiators (such as the popular carbon fiber far-infrared electric heater), etc.

Although the application history of electric floor heating is not as long as water floor heating, but there is also a history of application of twenty or thirty years in China, whether it is the National Theater or the Bird's Nest are the use of electric floor heating, once the construction of electric floor heating is completed, the later maintenance rate is very low, unless the man-made mechanical nails, drilling and other decoration damage leads to the failure of the electric floor heating system, followed by temperature control, temperature control is a control panel that controls the indoor temperature and the remote control of electrical appliances is the same, but it is generally placed on the wall, can be disassembled at any time - immediate maintenance. About the electric floor heating author believes that it is still very safe, the installation of electric floor heating is buried under the cement, the cement layer has the role of heat storage and uniform heat dissipation, and has the effect of protecting the heating cable from being destroyed. So it's very difficult to break in general.

In addition, when it comes to electricity, everyone will think of electromagnetic radiation, in fact, the magnetic field of electric floor heating can be shielded out, the cable jacket has a shielding layer, the main function is to shield the magnetic field, like some double-lead cables, the electromagnetic radiation of the entire system is not as good as the magnetic field of a mobile phone. Why are so many people using electric underfloor heating?The main advantage of electric underfloor heating is that the thermostat in each room can be accurately controlled, so as to achieve the effect of comfort and energy saving.

Safe. Although the kitchen and bathroom will be wet with water, the insulation structure of the electric floor heating itself is quite safe, and the insulation and waterproofness have their test reports.

It is not necessary, and there is less time to use. In addition, water is often used in the bathroom, and it is not safe to install electric floor heating.

Generally, no, if the heating is turned on in winter, even if the bathroom is not heated without any heating, it will not feel cold, and the whole house is closed. There is a bath bomb that can be used when the heating is not turned on.
