Installing underfloor heating is a sophisticated and highly specialized technical process. Here are the detailed steps of the project completed in Villeneuve-Loubet:
1. Study and Design
First of all, a thorough study is carried out to assess the space’s heating needs and design a suitable underfloor heating system. The dimensions of the room, the construction materials and the thermal requirements are all taken into account to draw up a precise plan.
2. Floor Preparation
The first step involves preparing the floor. After checking that the surface meets requirements, an insulating layer is laid to prevent heat loss into the ground. This includes installing a reflective film. Then we lay the welded wire mesh, which will serve as the base for the future floor.
3. Installing the Pipe Network
It was agreed to install a hydronic (water-based) underfloor heating system. To do this, we lay the pipe network so that it covers the area to be heated evenly. The pipes are secured in a way that ensures an even distribution of heat.
4. Pouring the Screed
Once the pipes are in place, a cement-based liquid screed is poured over the heating system. The screed is applied precisely to ensure even, complete coverage, providing a suitable surface for the final floor covering.
5. Testing and Inspection
Once the screed has fully dried, tests are carried out to check that the pipes are watertight and that the system as a whole is sound. Thermal checks are performed to make sure the underfloor heating works efficiently.
7. Heating System Setup
The underfloor heating is connected to a central heating system, which is why precise setup is needed to ensure it operates properly and integrates with the home’s overall heating system.
