To create a comfortable warm floor, you can choose the available linoleum, instead of expensive materials and heating systems. The popularity of this coating is due to excellent performance and ease of installation. It can be mounted on various bases - concrete, wood or plywood.
Varieties of warm linoleum
Such material is divided into two types - insulated and linoleum on a warm basis.
Insulated linoleum is the cheapest and easiest. It consists of a jute or felt base and a working surface made of PVC film. The product is elastic, soft, mounted glue or glueless. It has excellent thermal insulation characteristics.
The disadvantages of this type include the inability to lay in places with high humidity and high traffic. Basis of felt with poor waterproofing can be affected by mold and fungus. In places with high permeability, the working surface is quickly thinned out.
Modern linoleum on a warm basis combines 5-6 layers. Its base is foamed rubber, which makes it resistant to heavy loads. The second layer - fiberglass guarantees the strength of the product. The decorative coating with a pattern is protected by a durable outer material.
Deciding which linoleum is warmer and which is better to choose, it is necessary to take into account the features of the room, its humidity and patency. The advantage of the insulated material is its attractive price. Adhering to the recommendations of the manufacturer, you can achieve a long period of its operation. For rooms with high humidity, it is definitely necessary to choose linoleum on foamed basis.
Thanks to the insulation, linoleum remains a universal coating, which can be used in any room. With its help you can equip a comfortable warm floor and decorate the interior.
