Hello everyone,
We are currently starting the renovation of an old house, to be precise, we are emptying it at the moment (roof structure, interior walls, floors, etc.). The house currently has an old oil heating system with radiators in every room... The heating system is to be replaced by an air heat pump with underfloor heating, and here there is a fundamental question... The rooms were simple, the floor was completely made of a wooden structure, just by removing it we gained about 10 cm, so enough space for underfloor heating. But the entrance area, i.e. the foyer (~9m² on the ground floor, 9m² on the first floor) consists entirely of concrete + tiles... Removing it would be a huge effort. Therefore, we are currently considering whether it might even be possible to leave this area unheated, or simply use low-temperature radiators?
Each floor would thus be heated over about ~70m² (the individual rooms), and have ~9m² unheated... Is that okay???
