Hello,
when considering the underfloor heating in the new building, my father-in-law recommended the underfloor heating from Athe-therm (he means the OptImus there).
In this system, metal plates are laid over the heating pipes to ensure a better distribution of heat.
He already did this himself a few years ago, especially because with the old underfloor heating from anno ducto there were cold and warm tiles. As a child, my wife used to slide around playing only on the warm tiles.
I think it is not as bad today as described here.
Now I asked my brother-in-law if they also have cold and warm spots, that is, if you can tell where a pipe runs and where not. He said in winter you can feel that by placing your hand on it.
My question is now: Is it normal with modern underfloor heating to have cold and warm spots? (this has nothing to do with the warmth of the ambient air, but only with the contact heat)
If this is nothing unusual, I will definitely include the Athe-therm principle in my considerations.
