põrandaküttetorustikke

Põrandaküttetorustikud are pipe systems used for underfloor heating. These systems typically consist of flexible pipes, often made of PEX (cross-linked polyethylene), laid in a grid pattern beneath the floor surface. The pipes circulate heated water, which then radiates warmth upwards, creating a comfortable and even temperature throughout the room.

The installation of a põrandaküttetorustik involves several key components. The pipes are usually secured to insulation boards or a mesh using clips or ties. A manifold is essential for distributing the hot water from the boiler to individual heating circuits and for controlling the flow and temperature to each zone. The manifold also includes a return connection, allowing the cooler water to flow back to the boiler.

Underfloor heating systems are known for their efficiency and comfort. By heating the room from the floor up, they eliminate drafts associated with traditional radiator systems and provide a more consistent heat distribution. This can lead to lower energy consumption compared to other heating methods. The invisible nature of the heating pipes also offers aesthetic advantages, as there are no visible radiators to contend with.

The maintenance of põrandaküttetorustikud is generally minimal once installed. Regular checks of the system pressure and occasional flushing may be recommended to ensure optimal performance. The durability of PEX pipes means that these systems are designed for long-term operation with a low risk of leaks or failures.
