How to make a warm floor in the bath

Having your own bathroom, it is very useful to steam the whole family or in the company of friends. Pretty sprinkling, nice to relax in a small room with a table, followed for conversations during fragrant tea. Having made a warm floor indoors, baths you can save on a general heating, and it will give comfort during your stay.

The design of the warm floors differ in several types by the method of the heating device:

  • water floor;
  • electric floor.

The device of water heat is presented by a closed pipeline circuit, which circulates the heated liquid - water or antifreeze. For the rational placement of the design, it is necessary to determine the places for the furniture to eliminate these sections. The design is placed on a concrete tie. To minimize heat loss, pipes are placed on top of the heat insulating material - polyethylene and foil films.

Polyethylene, steel or metalplastic pipes are placed on the heat insulating base. The simplest way of laying is a "snake", and more effective on the heating of the floor - "snail". The turns of water pipes are located at a distance of 30-40 cm and fastened by clamps. It is possible to facilitate the process of laying pipes by using polystyrene plates with grooves for pipes. These plates also serve as a heat insulating material.

Feed and reverse tubes are connected to the collector. Before the final stage, tested the tightness of the pipes themselves, how the heating system works. A concrete screed with a thickness of at least 2 cm is poured from above. After a complete drying, the floor surface is resurrected by ceramic tiles. The installation of warm floor is very simple, does not require special skills and will save the family budget.

For electrical flooring, cable or infrared floors are used in rolls. They also fit on the thermal insulation layer. The electric floor is covered with a film to avoid moisture from entering. Flooring is mounted on the finish: ceramic tile, linoleum, parquet or laminate. This method is more financially costly and has difficulty installation. Therefore, it is better to apply for the help of specialists.

Warm floors not only create a favorable microclimate, but also perfectly dry the room, as a result, the wooden floor and finish will serve longer.
