Many consumers encounter the problem of not knowing which floor to lay for floor heating when decorating
There are many types of flooring on the market now. Generally speaking, solid wood multi-layer flooring, laminate flooring, and solid wood flooring can be used as underfloor heating flooring. However, due to their different materials and characteristics, the effect is also different
Taking the multi-layer solid wood floor, which is currently widely used for ground heating, as an example, the unique structure of multi-layer crisscrossing, multi-layer mutual restraint and easy stress release, is not easy to deform and crack, and has high stability
The middle core and back panels of Van Dyck multi-layer solid wood flooring are made of soft and elastic wood, which fully ensures comfortable foot feel and has good sound absorption and temperature and humidity regulation effects. In addition, the flooring is still made of German Kefir paint and Finnish adhesive, making it more environmentally friendly and suitable for floor heating. But when choosing, it is necessary to have a thorough understanding of it
1) The stability of wood is better
The usage environment of underfloor heating flooring is complex, especially in the dry northern regions, where the flooring needs to withstand the dual tests of temperature and humidity. It is recommended to use multi-layer solid wood flooring made of elm, white oak, red oak, etc. They have stronger resistance to dry heat and are not easily deformed
2) Thick flooring can affect thermal conductivity
Ground heating is the transfer of heat from the ground to the surface through the floor, which inevitably results in heat loss. For places with continuous heating, in places such as Beijing that are not very cold, you can choose slightly thicker flooring, with a thickness of 12mm to 15mm being fine. If you are in particularly cold areas such as Northeast China, you can consider an 8mm thick floor for better thermal conductivity
3) Geothermal flooring must undergo moisture-proof treatment during installation
Next, let's talk about whether there will be any problems installing underfloor heating in the rainy south. In fact, there is a certain regional cognitive misunderstanding in this concept. For underfloor heating flooring, as long as it is necessary and properly maintained, it can be installed in both the north and south. Even Van Dyck solid wood flooring can be chosen
Although underfloor heating flooring has high requirements for moisture content and stability of the ground, as a major brand, Van Dyck has strict requirements for its own products and large technological investment, overcoming the bottleneck of using solid wood flooring in underfloor heating. While maintaining the natural properties of solid wood flooring, it achieves high stability of the flooring in underfloor heating environments. And it is made by drying the entire piece of wood, meeting the requirements of environmentally friendly home furnishings
