Which electric heated floor is best suited for tiles: TOP 10 manufacturers

Today, porcelain stoneware in the construction market is considered a popular material for finishing floors, especially among cottage owners. After all, the interior of a room with this flooring looks modern and aesthetically pleasing.

Porcelain tile is a durable man-made finishing product that comes in tiles of different sizes and textures. It is made from kaolin or illite clay - the main component, under high pressure.

The formed forms are fired at a temperature of about 1300 degrees.

Granite differs from ceramic tiles in the technological process; processing occurs at significantly higher temperatures.

Which manufacturer should you choose?

Which electric floor will you choose?

Take the survey

Ceramic tiles are one of the most common flooring options in homes, apartments, and offices. It is practical, beautiful, durable, easy to care for and durable. That is why it is so often chosen, especially for installation in rooms such as the kitchen or bathroom.

But tiles have one important drawback - due to their high thermal conductivity, the material always seems cold, and walking on it is not always comfortable. A heated floor system helps solve this problem. Experts advise choosing an electric one, since it can be installed in any living space, and during installation, some types of such systems can simply be laid under the tiles without making a new screed.

Brand website: https://ergert.com.ru

ERGERT MAT EXTRA (ETME)

Unlike similar products from other manufacturers, EXTRA series heating mats have a number of technical features:

pros

• ultra-thin two-core heating cable with a diameter of 2.5 mm, securely fixed on a synthetic base with high adhesiveness;
• Today's best protection against overheating of heating cores using two-layer fluoroplastic insulation PTFE 270°C / PTFE 270°C;
• reinforcement and continuous shielding of the heating cable from electromagnetic radiation using tinned copper braiding, which has a significant effect on protecting the heating cores from rupture or mechanical damage.

Electric heated floor ERGERT

Electric heating mats. Characteristic

Heating mats are based on a thin cable sealed in a reinforced mesh.

Design advantages:

• The thickness of the mat is only 3 mm, which means it does not “steal” the height of the room;
• light weight does not put pressure on the ceiling or subfloor;
• can be installed even by a non-professional;
• in the event of a breakdown, not the entire coating is replaced, but one element of the mat with a defect.

Electric heating mats

Minuses:

• this design is approximately 30% more expensive than a cable electric floor. And much more expensive than water heating.

Heating with mats is more convenient for apartments and houses where a concrete base has already been poured. Then you just need to lay the finished mats, connect the sheet to the thermostat, and lay the tiles on top with tile adhesive.

What type of underfloor heating is best to use under tiles?

Floor tiles are a material characterized not only by durability, practicality and beauty, but also by high thermal conductivity. That is, it heats up easily and cools down quickly, which is why floors covered with it are not always comfortable for walking on them, for example, barefoot. This disadvantage is especially acute in the off-season, when there is no heating in the house yet, but it is already quite cool outside. That is why previously tiles were laid on the floors throughout the apartment less often.

Now the situation has changed. It is now easy to get rid of the main disadvantage of tiled bases - high thermal conductivity - by installing a floor heating system under the finishing material. You just need to install it and then turn it on at the right time - and the tile will acquire a temperature that is comfortable for a person. The most common places for installing such heating systems are the bathroom, toilet, toilet, hallway and kitchen. This is where “cold” tiles are most often placed.

Installation of infrared floor

On a note! In some cases, the underfloor heating system acts as a heating system for the entire room or as an additional part of the heating system of the house. In the first case, the floors need to be installed on approximately 70% of the entire area of ​​the room and with small gaps between the heating circuits.

The configuration of the floor heating system depends on how it works and what type of heating element it is. You can purchase and install floors that run on water, as well as electric ones, which are divided into several types. Let's get to know them.

Water heating systems

Previously, this was the most common option for underfloor heating in private homes. This heating system is a heating circuit laid according to a special system in the floor screed, that is, a polypropylene pipe, which is securely fixed to the base and then filled with cement screed. To heat the floor covering, water is used as a coolant. It is supplied from the central heating system, if it is possible to connect to it, or from the heating boiler in the house.

Water heated floor

Attention! In apartment buildings, water floors cannot be installed, with the exception of apartments that have special outlets from the heating system designed to connect a heated floor. In other cases it is prohibited!

A water floor is economical and is suitable for installing heating systems in a private home. Installation, by the way, is quite troublesome, but not so expensive. But it’s worth thinking about installing a water floor at the construction and renovation stage. The fact is that such a system can only be installed in a screed. And this is dirty and time-consuming work. Only the screed should dry for almost 30 days! But some modern options for water heating can be installed without a screed, using special heat-distributing plates instead.

Electric heating systems

For electric heating systems, as you might guess, the source of heat is electricity, which is directed from the power supply system to heating cables, mats or infrared floors. And here you can note for yourself the main obvious advantage of this option: such floors can and even should be installed in absolutely any premises, including in apartment buildings! No approvals from the management company, no fears for leaks and no plumbing work related to heating pipes - just opt ​​for electrics, and you already have a heated floor in your home without any restrictions. Another advantage of such a heating system is the ability to accurately regulate the temperature, down to 1 degree, which is not possible with the quickly cooling and long-heating coolant water in the water heating modification.

Table. Types of electric floors.

Heating mats under tiles

Advantages and disadvantages

Electric heating systems have a number of advantages that have ensured their popularity and demand. First of all, the following should be noted:

1. Easy installation. Most often, the work can be carried out by the homeowner without involving specialists.
2. Affordable price. Installing electric heated floors is much cheaper than water ones.
3. Minimum installation time. Usually it is combined with pouring the screed or it is carried out before laying the tiles.
4. The height of the floor increases much less than when laying pipes for a water system.
5. Safety and durability of the structure.
6. Possibility of temperature control if necessary.

Infrared floor

We will consider infrared heating options in a separate section. This is another type of underfloor heating where the energy source is electricity. And it can be called the most popular and modern.

This system is a fairly thin film that spreads under the floor covering. There is carbon paste (hardened) on it or bimetallic elements (copper and aluminum) are installed, which generate heat - this is the heating element. Heating of the room occurs due to infrared radiation. Each film module has dimensions of 50*50 cm, but it is supplied in rolls. All pieces of film just need to be connected to each other to get a single system and connect it to a current source.

Infrared floor

Infrared floors are easy to install and very effective. They can be used with absolutely any type of flooring, including ceramic tiles. Electricity costs are minimal - this is the most economical option for floor heating. Other advantages include the absence of the need to equip a cement screed, the ability to cut the film on site to a certain size (along specially marked cutting lines), the chance to adjust the heating with high precision, simple installation, uniform heating, and quiet operation. The main disadvantage of the system is its relatively high cost.

Important! When installing an infrared floor under tiles, it is important to use a reinforcing mesh between it and the tile itself.

The IR system is installed on a ready-made base, on which a thin heat reflector is already laid. Next, you just need to lay down the heating film, connect all its elements, connect to the sensors and power system, and then, covering it with a reinforcing mesh, simply lay the floor covering. A prerequisite when laying the film is to avoid overlaps and fix it to the base using regular tape to avoid the appearance of these overlaps in the future if the system moves. The intersection of individual panels with each other is detrimental to the system and will easily lead to its damage.

On a note! IR floors do not emit electromagnetic radiation around themselves and are much safer for human health than other options.

There are masters who are opposed to laying IR floors under ceramics. They explain the refusal of this option in this case by the fact that the film itself has low adhesion, and adhesion to the tile will be poor. But in fact, if the installation is done correctly, then the sliding effect is quite possible to avoid. It is also important to use certain adhesives during installation - not all standard tile adhesives are chemically inert and some can damage the film.

Pros and cons of porcelain stoneware

Porcelain tiles, in addition to convenience and practicality, also meet the latest fashion trends.

The advantages of this material:

• long shelf life - compared to ceramic tiles or laminate;
• high strength - can withstand a load of several hundred kg per 1 cm2;
• an environmentally friendly product - this is confirmed by its composition: clay, feldspar, kaolin, quartz sand;
• does not require special care - wipe with a damp cloth;
• can be used for cladding both indoors and outdoors;
• resistant to humidity and temperature changes;
• There are many textures and color shades - this allows you to choose the product to suit any interior.

In addition, the material is not difficult to install, warms up well and easily distributes the resulting heat throughout the room.

The main disadvantage is that it has a low temperature. But this problem can be solved if you install a “warm floor” system under the slabs. Porcelain tiles are slippery, especially when exposed to water, so they are not recommended for kitchens and bathrooms. In addition, the material is not cheap, but this price is justified and is compensated during operation.

Which heated floors are better for tiles?

Electric heating is the best option for a system installed under the tile. It is invisible, does not add excessive thickness to the floor, and is quite easy to install, depending on the type. There simply cannot be any leaks if electric floors are installed in the house. Heating is uniform and economical, and even capricious tiles will always be comfortable.

Important! The more powerful the system and the larger its area, the greater the energy consumption. But in general, all electric floors are quite economical.

Power of underfloor heating
When selecting an electric heating system, it is important to pay attention to several parameters. One of them is the required power and the conditions created in the room where installation of base heating is required. Typically, the power depends on how the room as a whole is heated, its area and purpose. For example, for an ordinary living room with heating, floors with a power of up to 120 W per meter are sufficient. And where there is high humidity, the power should be higher - around 150 W per square meter. If floor heating is the main one, then the power indicators can be increased even more - up to 220 W per square meter.

When selecting a heated floor and choosing its power, you need to take into account the places that will be filled with furniture. Laying a floor under them is not only not recommended, but also impossible. Air circulation in these places will be disrupted and the system may overheat and fail. On average, for a comfortable stay it is enough to warm up to 70% of the free surface of the base.

Advice! In the kitchen area or living room, the floor power, in general, may be lower than in the bathroom or on the loggia. It is also recommended to buy slightly more powerful options when installing underfoot heating on lower floors.

You can calculate the required power yourself using special calculators and formulas, or you can also seek help from consultants in the store where you purchase the heated floor. Some manufacturing companies immediately indicate in their catalogs certain indicators for certain conditions, and it is quite easy to navigate them and make the right choice in your case.

If we talk about the type of electric heating system, then under the tiles you can choose any option that you like and seems more convenient and effective, even IR flooring. In the latter case, you just need to take into account some installation features. Also, one more rule applies to IR flooring when laying it under tiles: you need to buy carbon floors. There are also bimetallic options, but they are not suitable for installation under ceramics.

As for the manufacturer, you need to choose one whose products satisfy you in all respects, and also fall within the budget allocated for the purchase of heated floors. There are good inexpensive options, some of them are presented in the rating above, and there are also expensive premium systems. The latter are distinguished by high performance in all respects, as well as durability. But even among budget options there are systems that, with proper installation and careful use, will last for many years without complaints.

How to choose porcelain tiles

When purchasing porcelain tiles for heated floors, you need to take the choice of model seriously. It is necessary to take into account the features of the heating design and the characteristics of the coating. Experts advise paying attention to the following points:

• tiles with a glazed surface do not give off heat;
• If the method of laying tiles involves empty seams, then when heated the product expands, so you need to choose carefully, especially for the electric type.

It is worth saying that some tile models have features when laying. This concerns adhesive compounds that affect the installation of a number of heating systems.

It is better to entrust the choice of porcelain tiles to a specialist, then there will be no unexpected surprises in the operation of the device.

The optimal solution for all floor coverings in the apartment would be to install an infrared floor heating system or thermal mats. It is better to leave cable options for a private house. If we talk about manufacturers, then almost every company produces some specific type of heating system, however, options are not excluded when one company in its assortment can find a variety of base heating options. In any case, it is up to the owner of the house or the occupant of the room to decide which system to install. The recommendations in this article are worth listening to, but you should not use them as the ultimate truth. The information is provided for general information purposes only.

Cable type electric heating

The system is based on a heating cable that converts electrical energy. It comes in the form of mats or on a coil, used only with a thermostat.

Cable underfloor heating is suitable for new buildings where screed will be made

Advice. If you have chosen this floor heating option, then you need to know what to buy, single-core and double-core cable. Single-core ones are cheaper, but they need to be returned to the thermostat. Twin-core ones are more expensive, thicker and taller, but their installation is much easier.

Design advantages:

• a system with electrical cables is more durable than a water floor;
• Requires minimum electrical energy.

Minuses:

• installation of heated floors is quite expensive;
• takes up 6-8 cm, taking into account the concrete screed of 4 cm, which means the height of the room is significantly reduced.

Cable heated floors are more suitable for new buildings, where there will be a cement screed in any case. When installing it, you need to take into account that the large weight of the system will put a load on the floor.

Expert advice

You should listen to the recommendations of professionals when choosing this or that heated floor. Reviews and advice from installers indicate the high popularity of electric cables in heating installations. It is easy to install and efficient to use.

In order for the selected system to efficiently heat the room, installation is carried out exclusively according to the manufacturer’s instructions. It is also important to calculate the required wire power. If the cable is installed in a bathroom, on the ground floor, in a room with large heat losses, it is necessary to purchase systems with a power of 180 W/m². If the cable is installed in an apartment located on the second floor or higher (there is a heated room below), this figure can be 150 W/m².

It should be noted that the more solution is laid on top of the cable, the longer it will take to warm up. In some cases, it will take a day for the base to reach the required temperature. A thin wire will heat up in just 30-40 minutes. However, this version of the system will cool down much faster.

Having considered which warm floors are better for tiles, reviews from experts and buyers, you can choose the best option for the system.

What's better?

So, after comparing some of the underfloor heating systems that are suitable for laying under porcelain tiles, you should choose one of them. At the moment, most people opt for new devices, namely heating mats. By installing such a floor, you can ensure the most pleasant conditions in the room. In addition, if you choose heating mats, there will be much less preparatory work. In addition, the floor is laid in a layer of tile adhesive itself.

And of course, you shouldn’t write off infrared heated floors too early, which is a winning option. This is an excellent option, which has only one drawback - a large “sandwich” of building materials, which you cannot do without, namely plasterboard or other sheet material, waterproofing, insulation and only then porcelain stoneware.

Application area

Thanks to the rather beautiful and rich appearance of porcelain stoneware tiles, you can radically change the look of the room. The material is used as flooring for floors in rooms at home or outdoors. They often decorate balconies, terraces, and gazebos.

Outside in the summer, it is most pleasant to walk along a porcelain stoneware path or terrace. The thing is that the properties of the material are such that it always remains cool.

Considering the properties of the material and its strength indicators, the floor should be covered only with porcelain stoneware, and the walls should be covered with ceramic tiles.

The cost of durable facing material is much higher than the cost of fragile tiles. Despite the limited color palette, porcelain tiles will last longer than floor tiles. When renovating an apartment or house, you need to set your priorities correctly.
