Antifreeze is easy to use.
1. The main component of antifreeze is ethylene glycol, which has a low freezing point and can better protect floor heating pipes from freezing and cracking. The main component of antifreeze powder is inorganic salt. Although it also has a certain antifreeze effect, it is inferior to antifreeze liquid.
2. The antifreeze liquid has better fluidity and can flow better through the floor heating pipes, thus achieving a better antifreeze effect. Antifreeze powder has low fluidity and is easily deposited in floor heating pipes, affecting the antifreeze effect.
Is it OK to add antifreeze (coolant) to underfloor heating?
No.
Under normal circumstances, it is relatively normal for antifreeze to consume approximately 10% to 35% of 10 liters per year. However, most of them are. Unnatural.
Thefull name of antifreeze should be called antifreeze coolant, which means coolant with antifreeze function.
Antifreeze cannot be added to underfloor heating, as this would have an impact. Correct anti-freeze measures should be: 1. When there is no one at home for a short time (within a week), the boiler temperature can be set to the lowest setting. During this time, the boiler will enter the antifreeze state of low temperature operation. 2. When no one is at home for a long time, drain all water from the boiler and heating system. However, it should be noted that before doing this, please fully consider other internal pipes, for example confirming that the water pipe will never freeze. Otherwise, do not turn off the boiler and leave it running at low temperature. Underfloor heating only contains waterand I haven't heard of filling it with antifreeze? Even if your home doesn't need underfloor heating in winter. You can also drain the water between the boiler and the water dispenser. Water pipes under the ground will not freeze and explode. The full name of antifreeze should be called antifreeze coolant, which means coolant with antifreeze function. Antifreeze can prevent coolant from freezing and cracking the radiator and freezing the engine's cylinder block or cylinder head during cold winter parking. But a misunderstanding must be cleared up. Antifreeze is not just for winter, it must be used all year round.
