Uunderfloor heating
Underfloor heating is a reliable and effective heating method combining a warm and comfortable environment and economical operation. In this system, warm water at 35-45oC circulates inside a pipe system embedded in the floor of the space, turning the floor itself into a heating unit. Heat is transmitted by radiation from the floor to the heated space, from the lower levels to the higher ones, throughout the entire space without any strong currents forming. The desired layering of the temperature is thus achieved, which means that the temperature reaches 18-20oC at the height of the head.
Using pipes that run through the entire surface of the space for heating ensures the basic requirements of modern life, which means comfortable and healthy living in warm coziness. Aesthetics without restrictions in the modern home and environmentally friendly, which one can enjoy easilysaving energy and expenses, thanks to underfloor heating!
Thermia uses Interplast system . Interplast is the only company in Greece that provides an integrated package of materials for the installation of underfloor heating, with a 30-year guarantee for the plastic pipes of the underfloor heating and 10 years for the brass fittings.
Thermia , with its long installation experience such systems, uses Interplast Como – floor 17 x 2.0mm pipe for use in underfloor heating, in compliance with all European specifications, certified by the largest European and American institutes.
The Como – floor pipe is manufactured from special type polyethylene, suitable for high temperatures that meet and exceed the temperature requirements of the underfloor heating, and has oxygen barrier that protects the installation’s metal parts. It is especially flexible, something which facilitates installation during the layering of the circuits.
The pipes are installed on a castellated panel made of expanded polystyrene with vapour barrier, with special arrangement on its surface (plugs). The panel offers heat insulation, sound insulation and humidity insulation from the plaster coating and ensures that the pipe is perfectly supported and it is covered by the plaster coating. Item dimensions are 1350 x 750 mm2 and the total height (plug + base) is 4.5cm.
A perimeter wall insulation is installed around the perimeter between the panel and the wall, made of polyethylene foam 8mm thick and 150mm high. It has nylon film on the lower part of its front and a special fixing adhesive strip on the back.
A special joint section is placed at predetermined points, selected during our study, and on the lower cases of the building’s internal doors so that they can accommodate the heated floor’s contractions and expansions.
