First of all, we need to understand the basic composition and working principle of the floor heating system. The floor heating system is mainly composed of heat sources, pipes, control systems and other parts, and the purpose of raising room temperature is achieved through ground radiation heat dissipation. Therefore, the installation of the underfloor heating system needs to be closely coordinated with the ground construction.
Second, the decoration steps and floor heating installation.
During the renovation process, the installation of underfloor heating is usually located in the following steps:
Foundation construction: After the foundation construction of the house is completed, such as ground leveling, waterproofing and other work, the installation of floor heating can begin.
Laying insulation: Laying insulation on the ground to reduce heat loss downward and improve the efficiency of the underfloor heating system.
Installation pipes: According to the design drawings, lay the floor heating pipes on the insulation layer and fix them.
Backfill concrete: Backfill concrete above the pipeline, protect the pipe and secure its position.
Ground construction: After the concrete is dry, the construction of the ground can be carried out, such as laying tiles, wooden floors, etc.
Therefore, the installation of underfloor heating should be carried out after the foundation construction is completed but before the ground construction.

To sum up, the installation of the underfloor heating system should be carried out after the foundation construction is completed during the renovation process and before the ground construction. When installing, it is necessary to select qualified products, professional construction, and fully communicate with the decoration company. With proper planning and implementation, the underfloor heating system will provide you with a more comfortable and warm living environment.
