The use of underfloor heating has grown considerably in recent years, especially in high-end construction and interior design projects. One of the main benefits of this type of floor is its ability to provide uniform heating across the entire surface. This translates into superior thermal comfort, eliminating hot and cold spots common in traditional heating systems.
Underfloor heating eliminates the need for visible radiators, allowing for a cleaner and more minimalist interior design, ideal in projects where aesthetics is an important and decisive point. Dune porcelain tiles are perfect for covering this type of floor, due to their durability and resistance to high temperatures, ensuring a long useful life and minimal maintenance thanks to to its high quality materials.
The choice of flooring for underfloor heating as an extra quality and design
Choosing porcelain flooring for underfloor heating will depend on the type of project, residential, commercial or industrial, since each one has specific requirements in terms of resistance, durability and heating capacity.
The difference between common floors and underfloor heating is the thermal conductivity and resistance of the materials to heat. Dune's high-quality porcelain tiles are excellent heat conductors, maximizing the efficiency of the radiant system.
Energy efficiency
One of the biggest attractions of underfloor heating is its energy efficiency. This system uses thermal radiation to heat spaces, which requires less energy compared to convection heating systems. Installing underfloor heating with high-quality porcelain tiles can significantly reduce energy bills as it retains heat for longer and requires less energy to maintain a comfortable temperature.
In addition, by not depending on air circulation to distribute heat, underfloor heating contributes to better indoor air quality, reducing the circulation of dust and allergens. This is especially beneficial in residential settings and public spaces where health and well-being are a priority.
Applications of porcelain tiles for underfloor heating
Radiant floors are extremely versatile and can be used in a variety of architectural and interior design projects. In residential projects, underfloor heating offers unmatched comfort in all seasons, being ideal for living rooms, bedrooms and bathrooms.
In the hotel sector, the installation of underfloor heating can significantly improve the guest experience, providing a warm and welcoming environment. In addition, underfloor heating is perfect for common areas such as lobbies and restaurants, where thermal comfort is essential and will help improve the sensations of guests.
For commercial buildings and offices, underfloor heating improves employee comfort, and can also reduce long-term recurring costs thanks to its energy efficiency. In public spaces such as museums and galleries, underfloor heating allows a constant temperature to be maintained without affecting the aesthetics of the space.
