Healthy Heating: The Best Option for Your Home
What is thermal comfort?
In the search for a more comfortable and healthy life, the choice of heating system is crucial. For those who prioritize their well-being and that of their family, electric underfloor heating using radiant foil stands out as the best option. It not only provides a pleasant and warm environment, but also offers significant health benefits.
Thermal comfort, also known as hygrothermal comfort, is essential for our daily well-being. This concept refers to the situation in which we feel neither cold nor heat, reaching an ideal temperature perceived by the human body. This comfort is achieved through a combination of the ambient temperature and the temperature of the surrounding surfaces, making the environment truly cozy and healthy.
With underfloor heating, optimal thermal comfort is achieved by distributing heat evenly across the floor, creating an environment where warm surfaces and ambient temperatures are perfectly balanced for your comfort and health.
Humidity
Keeping the humidity between 40% and 65% is ideal for the body. Radiant heating does not dry out the environment, making it recommended for hospitals, nursing homes, and daycare centers.
Airspeed
Air currents directly affect our temperature. Radiant heating does not produce significant air movement, which helps maintain greater comfort and reduce the spread of dust and mites.
Average radiant temperature
The radiant foil heating system is recommended by the WHO and does not cause varicose veins, Since the floor temperature does not exceed 29°C, this system is beneficial for people with circulation problems, keeping their feet warm and improving overall well-being.
Convection heating: with radiators
Convection heating systems, like radiators, primarily heat the air in the room. This method requires heating all of the air in the space to reach the desired temperature, which causes constant movement of air and dust particles.
This can be problematic for people with allergies and asthma, as the dust adheres to the mucous membranes, causing discomfort. Additionally, convection heat is not uniform, as it emanates from specific points (the radiators), leaving some areas colder than others.
Radiation heating: electric underfloor heating
Radiation heating, specifically through underfloor heating, offers a much more comfortable indoor climate than traditional systems. This method heats interior walls, objects inside the room and people, without the need to heat the air.
The Cecather® system is a prominent example, being highly efficient and consuming less energy. In addition, radiant heating prevents air circulation and environmental dryness, helping to prevent the formation of mold and providing an ideal environment for people with allergies or asthma.
✔️ Energy efficiency
Underfloor heating is remarkably efficient, as it directly heats surfaces and objects rather than all the air in the room. This results in lower energy consumption, making the Cecather® system an economical and sustainable option.
✔️ Healthy environment
Radiant heating does not create air circulation, which means it does not raise dust or mites. This is especially beneficial for people with allergies or asthma, as mucosal irritation is reduced. In addition, the air does not dry out, creating a healthier and more comfortable environment.
✔️ Safety and well-being
The radiant foil heating system is recommended by the WHO and does not cause varicose veins, as the floor temperature does not exceed 29°C. In fact, this system is beneficial for people with circulation problems, keeping feet warm and improving overall well-being.
