What are the backfilling methods and requirements for the heating cable heating filling layer?

Heating cables have become one of the ideal heating methods in winter due to their economy, safety and high quality.

After laying heating cables in the room, backfilling is an extremely important thing. However, many people have doubts about the way to backfill heating cables, worrying that unreasonable backfilling will reduce the heating efficiency of electric floor heating. Here let us understand the backfilling methods and requirements for the heating cable heating filling layer.

Methods for backfilling heating cables with concrete

When pouring the concrete filling layer, the materials used must meet the design requirements.

When the concrete enters the laying area, a pad must be set for transportation. Tools such as carts must not directly squeeze the heating cable.

It is not allowed to step on it within 48 hours after the filling is completed. Chiseling and overloading are strictly prohibited.

 

Cement is usually laid by the construction unit, and concrete laying is only for reference.

The backfill layer plays a role in protecting and storing heat and dissipating the heat for electric floor heating.

The quality of the backfill layer has a great impact on the heat dissipation effect of the ground.

It should be noted that the backfilling of electric floor heating not only requires more attention to the backfilling material, but also requires full attention to the construction measures during backfilling.

Only by paying more attention to the precautions of backfilling can the effectiveness of electric floor heating be maximized.

 

Requirements for the filling layer of heating cable heating installation:

When the house is delivered, the heating cable heating must be laid and completed. The thickness of the concrete backfill layer should be controlled at 20-30mm. It should not be set too high or too low.

After installation, the concrete needs to be completely dry before it can operate normally;

The 20mm insulation layer under the heating cable has played a moisture-proof role, so if the laminate flooring is used as a floor decoration, there is no need to lay a moisture-proof layer.

When the wooden floor is used as a floor decoration, the concrete backfill layer should be completely dry before laying, and it is necessary to power on to dry all the moisture in the cement layer

 

The current development status of electric floor heating is that electric floor heating has been recognized by the world HVAC industry as a heating method with good heating effect, high safety and reliability, and long service life. With this heating method, the principle is to convert electrical energy into thermal energy, and the energy conversion rate is high, nearly 100%.
