Many Property Owners Prefer The So-Called Wet Heating System
In cold climates most homeowners find it necessary to prepare themselves for the cold, unpleasant winter months by having underfloor heating that works with gas boilers installed. This is opposed to other systems such as those that run on electricity. This system, the so-called wet system, relies on underfloor heating that is provided by gas-powered boiler systems and is preferred by most people in, for example, the UK. The wet, or hydronic, system is run via thin pipes which are laid under the floor. It is best to call in the services of an experienced company to install the system for you. There are companies that specialise in this type of heating system - some offer many years’ experience in their industry. You most probably want to call in a firm that knows what they’re doing in terms of gas boiler underfloor heating systems. Depending on which company you’re dealing with, some offer five or ten years, even twenty years experience and will, therefore, have installed hundreds and more of these systems. This means they will have all the information, correct materials and advice you may need from them. The thin pipes carry the warm/hot water throughout the house or apartment by releasing the heat from the water through the floors, thereby warming up the areas where these pipes are laid under the floor surface or carpet. The source of the heat will come from the main boiler that, in many cases, is a gas boiler which supplies the underfloor heating system with the necessary heat. Therefore this wet, or water based, system is also called the gas underfloor heating system. Many people prefer this system because gas is cheaper in countries such as the UK, for example; therefore this system is preferred over electricity, especially if you tend to use it fairly often.
In most cases, it must be mentioned, homeowners feel they gain space in their home because they do not have to use loose standing heaters and radiators to warm the rooms. Owners that use the wet system point out certain benefits: it is the cheaper alternative in the long run; the underfloor heating that runs off a gas boiler works well under most floor surfaces; a qualified installer can install it with ease either during the floor laying phase of a new build project or when a property is being renovated; you can choose how many rooms you need to be warmed and you can decide to set the system to operate at certain times. These are some of the benefits of this system, and why many people feel it is their preferred choice. Good thermostats will allow you further options such as remotely switching it on and off. It depends on preference. When people are asked to mention why they like underfloor heating provided via gas boilers, many mention the fact that it is so effective that they no longer have to keep rugs and carpets on tiles to keep the warmth in – the system does so, also in large, open rooms. Because of the way the system works, the heat is slowly, evenly distributed through the piping system which gets its power from the gas boiler, and in quite an unobtrusive way the rooms are gradually warmed to the desired temperature. When you contact the installers of this system, make sure they understand the limitations, if any, placed upon carpets and laminated flooring, for instance, in terms of temperature restrictions. A responsible company that understands underfloor heating run off a gas boiler system will know these things, especially if they offer great knowledge and experience. The best companies will also be able to offer you advice about maintenance and looking after your system.
