Are you planning to extend your house with an extension or a conservatory? To ensure good thermal comfort in this new room while trying to save money, we will review the most interesting solutions to heat this space.
This system consists of convectors embedded in the floor. They are an excellent solution for large glazed surfaces.
Indeed, they create a barrier between the cold air near the bay window and offer gentle warmth in the room.
Moreover, their installation nestled in the floor leaves the field free, with only a grille visible, available in many colors and models, and can also fit all configurations of shapes or angles.
Never leave anything above the grille of a floor convector. Also, avoid placing flammable materials above the grilles (such as curtains, drapes, cabinets, blinds…).
The primary purpose of this type of equipment is to heat your interior, but with its reversible function, it becomes capable of functioning like an air conditioner.
It will not have the same cooling power as a pure air conditioner, but it will still cool a room well during the summer period.
It is therefore a two-in-one device that draws its energy from the ground, water, or air depending on the chosen operating principle.
For heating, it works like a classic heat pump, and for cooling, it can be either passive or active. In the first case, the indoor air is simply evacuated. In the second, however, the refrigeration circuit is activated in reversible mode and allows, like a refrigerator, to effectively cool the air before transmitting it inside the home.
