Which way is more energy efficient and environmentally friendly in winter?

As winter approaches, consumers are beginning to consider winter heating plans. At present, there are many heating devices on the market, such as air conditioning, firearms and other traditional methods, or new heating methods such as plumbing and floor heating. The heating method is more energy-efficient and more economical. Here, we listen to the opinions of experts.

New heating and comfortable environmental protection

HVAC is a new concept that has emerged in the heating market in recent years. The so-called HVAC is a general term for integrated systems such as indoor heating, cooling, ventilation, and regulation of indoor air. Dong Chongcheng, deputy director of the China Heating Radiator Committee, said that with the continuous development of the heating market, the heating method has also shown a diversified development trend. In addition to the traditional air conditioning, firearms and centralized heating methods in the north, floor heating and gas heating A variety of new heating methods, such as (water heating) and ground source heat pumps, have emerged.

Compared with the traditional heating method, HVAC has a larger initial investment, but it is more energy-efficient, comfortable and environmentally friendly. Taking floor heating as an example, in addition to the high thermal efficiency of the heating method, the heat loss is small, which can effectively save energy. The floor heating makes the indoor surface temperature uniform, giving a good feeling of cold feet. At the same time, plumbing is not easy to cause turbid air convection, and indoor air is cleaner. The industry believes that due to the high air humidity in Chongqing, the proportion of people suffering from rheumatism and respiratory diseases is higher. Therefore, Chongqing winter is more suitable for installing plumbing and other facilities than the north to meet heating demand.

Easy to install energy saving

Although the new heating has many advantages, even in the same region, the development of the Chongqing HVAC market lags far behind that of Chengdu and other cities. In the final analysis, it is because of the concept of consumption. For example, many people think that the price is expensive, they are worried about water leakage, and the installation is inconvenient. Wait.

"In fact, the home HVAC system is not a luxury, at least one-third of Chongqing people have this spending power." Zhao Guozhong, the technical director of Milo HVAC, gave us an account: a house of about 100 square meters. If you install 3 hanging air conditioners, 1 cabinet air conditioner should be nearly 20,000 yuan. For any kind of plumbing and floor heating system, the total cost is only about 20,000 to 30,000 yuan, but at the same time, if the family installs a gas heating system, it is no longer necessary to install a water heater, and the hot water temperature provided by it is basically Constant, there will be no sudden cooling and sudden heating. At the same time, the monthly heating cost is also 30% less than the air conditioner.

Zhao Guozhong said that in fact, residents who have already renovated can also install HVAC. HVAC products are not high-tech products, and the installation is not complicated. For example, a house of about 100 square meters can not be damaged in the original decoration, and it can be installed in about 5 days.

Choose a lot of HVAC

HVAC systems are mainly divided into three categories - radiator systems, floor heating systems and central air conditioning systems. At the moment, many owners will consider which heating system to choose when renovating a new home.

According to experts, all kinds of systems have their own unique advantages and disadvantages. Consumers should choose the system that suits them best according to their own living conditions, family members and speed requirements.

Homes with old people and children at home, it is more suitable to use floor heating in winter heating. “The floor heating temperature is even and comfortable. If it is used constantly, it will also save energy. The interior is beautifully arranged. If it is not at home and intermittently heated, the radiator with water heating method is better. Radiator heating and opening is flexible, and it is quick to cool down quickly, but it takes up space in the house." For two different ways of heating, experts believe that consumers can choose lifestyle habits.

Zhao Guozhong also introduced that different areas and different types of houses are suitable for different HVAC products, such as bungalows, villas and other high-rise rooms, which are more suitable for floor heating, apartment-type houses are more suitable for radiator heating, of course, you can also choose a hybrid system (such as : The living room is warm and the bedroom is heated.)

HVAC experts remind consumers that if you want to install the overall home heating system, you need to contact the heating product service provider before starting work, in order to plan the installation and location of the heating equipment in advance. To purchase HVAC products, consumers can go to Jiangbei Hongxing Meikailongbei Street, which has gathered many HVAC brands. When consumers choose a brand, they must carefully consider it. Don't make a sloppy order when the price is cheap. The history, qualifications, scale, and reputation must be investigated. There should be no invoices or contracts. If necessary, please show the relevant tests. report.

How to choose HVAC

Floor heating system - slower temperature rise, suitable for families who need "continuous non-intermittent heating". If you have a family with a long-term residence and a high-rise, large-area house, it is recommended to install a floor heating system or a hybrid system; this system is not only energy-saving and comfortable, but also completely solves the supply of domestic hot water.

Radiator system - faster heating rate, suitable for families who need "intermittent heating". If you are uninhabited at home during the day and only need heating at certain times, such as at night and on weekends, it is recommended to use a radiator system. The temperature of the radiator system from the start-up to the set temperature usually takes only about half an hour, and the temperature control is flexible, and each room can achieve truly independent temperature control. The "radiator" placed in the home is also a great item for baking clothes, especially baby diapers.

Floor heating systems are generally only suitable for simultaneous installation during renovations. If the renovated room is installed with floor heating, it may damage the original decoration. The radiator system can also be installed on the renovated room, but the design technology and construction difficulty are higher.

Central air conditioning system - central air conditioning is less comfortable than the above two systems, and the cost of use is relatively high. Therefore, central air-conditioning systems are generally used in large shopping malls, hotels or high-end apartments, which are rarely used by ordinary households. Central air conditioning is also only required to be synchronized with the basic decoration, not suitable for the renovated house.
