More and more people prefer to install floor heating when they are building or decorating a new house. The heat in the heating process is mainly radiant heat transfer, the indoor temperature distribution is reasonable, and the ineffective heat loss is small; Low temperature conveying of heat medium, less heat loss in the conveying process; Under the same comfort conditions, the interior design temperature can be 2~3℃ lower than the traditional convection heating interior design temperature, and the heat consumption can be saved by about 15%;
And compared with traditional convection heating, radiators and pipe decorations each occupy a certain indoor space, affecting the interior decoration and furniture layout, while floor heating will bury the heating coil in the floor, which does not affect the indoor beauty, does not occupy indoor space, and is convenient for decoration and furniture layout.
So how to choose a thermostat for electric floor heating?
First of all, color selection, according to the house decoration style we generally recommend choosing black or white this classic and timeless color, will not be inconsistent with most decoration styles.
We tend to recommend HT-23, this LED display floor heating thermostat for below reasons:
- it does not have parts strongly protruding from the wall;
- the electronic part is also very reliable and simple;
the thermostat could be installed in frames along with switches and sockets.
A floor temperature sensor is a device capable of measuring the surface or internal temperature of a floor. It can be used with floor heating and floor heating thermostats to bring the following benefits:
• Improve the comfort and energy saving of floor heating. The floor temperature sensor can adjust the output power of the floor heating system according to the user's needs and environmental conditions to keep the floor temperature within a suitable range, avoid overheating or overcooling, and improve indoor temperature uniformity and comfort. At the same time, the floor temperature sensor can also avoid ineffective operation or overload operation of the floor heating system, save energy consumption and reduce operating costs.
• Protects flooring materials and prolongs service life. The floor temperature sensor can monitor the temperature changes of the floor to prevent the floor from cracks, deformation, glue opening and other problems due to excessive temperature differences. Especially for floors made of sensitive materials such as wood, composite, and elastic, the floor temperature sensor can effectively protect its structure and appearance and prolong its service life
• Increased safety and reliability of underfloor heating. The floor temperature sensor can detect the temperature status of the floor in real time, and detect abnormal conditions in time, such as short circuit, leakage, overheating, etc., and automatically cut off the power supply or alarm through linkage with the floor heating thermostat to prevent accidents such as fire or electric shock
In summary, the floor temperature sensor has many benefits for floor heating and floor heating thermostats, and is a recommended intelligent control device.
E-top has different kinds of digital WiFi floor heating thermostats, On the basis of the original high temperature protection of the floor, remote control is also added, which can be set and programmed, and can be remotely switched and adjusted.

Heating cable Electric floor heating as a comfortable heating system, in addition to heating cables, its related accessories also play a very important role, such as room thermostats. Because the thermostat can directly control the entire heating cable heating system, while using a high quality thermostat, but also improve comfort, then how to choose the thermostat?
1. For normal rooms, such as living room, bed room, select an electronic room thermostat with a rated current below 16A, which can control the working state of the system through the room temperature sensor to feel the room temperature, and then maintain an approximately constant room temperature.
2. For wet area, it is recommended to use the room thermostats with floor temperature sensor, its working principle is to control the system state according to the temperature of the surface of the room.
3. Thermostats with timing clock or a regional programming device to ensure automatic control (intelligent control). For heat storage systems, a control system with sunlight and wind indications can be used, and the amount of stored heat can be adjusted by thermostats and outdoor temperature sensors.
With the rapid development of the national economy and the continuous improvement of people's living standards, people have higher requirements for the living environment, and hope that the living space can be fresh air, comfortable temperature, energy saving and environmental protection. The heating cable electric heating system is having these advantages, is a very ideal heating method, and has gradually entered thousands of households.
