First, it should be thin. The ground heat is transmitted to the ground through the floor, and there must be some loss in the middle. Therefore, the floor is suitable for geothermal environment and it should be reduced the heat loss to the minimum. The floor can directly affect the heat conduction speed. In general, solid wood flooring is 10~14mm. Solid wood composited flooring is 15~20mm while cork flooring is only 4mm.
Second, the temperature changes are not deformed. In the winter, when the weather start to urban heating, the indoor temperature will have a relatively large temperature difference, so the adaptation and control of the floor to the temperature is also very important, the ground heating should consider this aspect, otherwise it will cause the floor Cracking deformation. Generally, the structure of the floor is fibrous, such as solid wood laminate flooring and laminate flooring. The temperature change will cause partial overheating or too low, and it will be transmitted along the fiber. If the force is not uniform, the floor deformation will easily occur, and the green grid After the cork floor is heated, the heat is dissipated, and the temperature change from minus 60 ° C to above 80 ° C has no effect on him.
Third, the amount of formaldehyde released is low. Generally, the floor is tested at room temperature, and the amount of formaldehyde released is within the standard range. However, in geothermal environment, the higher the temperature is, the higher the release of formaldehyde is. The formaldehyde emission of cork flooring is tested by the national authority. Under the law, the amount of formaldehyde released is almost zero. Under the geothermal environment, the amount of formaldehyde released will not exceed the standard.
Fourth, the heat preservation is slowly. Generally, the floor insulation performance is poor. Once the external source is removed, the floor will cool down quickly. When the cork floor is heated by the external heat source, it is not because the specific heat capacity of the cork is large, and the heat is stopped. On the contrary, it is stable and rising. When the external source is suddenly removed, due to the internal effect of the cork, the heat dissipation rate is slower, and the heat preservation performance is superior to other materials.
It can be seen that the cork floor is called the floor that is most suitable for floor heating.
