How to choose a thermal head for a warm water floor?

The activity of the whole water floor system is based on the mixing unit, which is responsible for adjusting the coolant system. This is due to the fact that from the heating equipment the moisture is supplied with a fairly significant level of heating (up to 90 degrees), and this factor should be small at the floor surface (not more than 40 degrees). The thermal head, which is located on the damper, is responsible for maintaining the normal temperature of the coolant.

In the mixer, the liquid is mixed, which flows with a considerable temperature. As a result, it makes it possible to send in water circuits with the required temperature.

This hydraulic valve has three passes.Of these, two serve for the entry of water flows, the third holds the boiler into the design of the water circuit. In order to prevent metal corrosion, the block-case is made of stainless metal. During operation, the heat the floor responds well to the environment by changing the position of the axle boxes and controlling the degree of heating of the liquid at the outlet. The thermal head is equipped with a meter that transmits signals to the actuator (close or open the valve).

Features three-way valve:

• it is easy to install;
• it can be mechanically and automatically adjusted;
• it is durable;
• it has an average price;
• it contains chemical and hydro protection.

The two-way version is the supply valve. They put a special thermostatic head on it, which keeps control over the temperature of the coolant. As a result, the thermal head of the water floor overlaps and opens the hydraulic valve, adjusting the degree of heat carrier delivery from the boiler.

Features of this valve:

• safety and stability of the floor temperature;
• constant mixing with cool liquid;
• lack of third-party feed.

Selection of a model of a temperature controller for a water floor depends on several circumstances: the volume of the building, the connection of the boiler, the floor covering, the climate of the environment, the availability of additional or main heating systems.

Criteria for purchase:

• Price. The most profitable varieties are mechanical type products. They are better in performance, they are almost impossible to disable due to carelessness. Such thermostats fit those who have children.
• Multifunctional. Electronic products perfectly control the heat in the rooms.
• Programmability This criterion allows you to provide in every room of the house the most comfortable conditions.

If the air space in the room heats up to the required level, the working sphere in the bellows expands under the influence of heat, which causes the hydraulic cylinder to straighten. The rod, combined with the bellows, rushes forward, exerting pressure on the hydraulic valve, pressing it tightly against the through-hole.In this case, the flow of coolant in the battery (heating) stops.

After the carrier remaining in the heating battery has cooled, the mixture (or gas) in the thermoelement is squeezed, causing a decrease in its walls, which leads to the opening of the valve. The heated coolant enters the system, then the course of action begins again.

There is a minor numeric display and a row of keys. The display shows the current characteristics of the system, or exhibited. Keys (often with the up and down arrows) are designed to change the temperature. Programmable temperature controls make it possible to maintain a stable floor temperature, You can automatically change it in the special days of the week, or the time of day.

There are modifications that, along with a stationary control unit on the wall, have a portable control panel. Certain models make it possible to dispose of work through a personal computer or tablet, which is quite convenient. These devices can control the heating of the floor.
