What to do if the wooden floor is not warm? Summary of popular solutions across the network in 10 days
Recently, the issue of whether wooden floors are hot or not has become a hot topic in home discussions. This article combines hot topics and expert advice from the entire Internet in the past 10 days to organize structured solutions for you to help you quickly troubleshoot problems.
1. Common causes and corresponding solutions

| Question type | Possible reasons | solution |
|---|---|---|
| uneven temperature | Floor thermal conductivity is low | Replace special floor heating floor (recommended thermal conductivity >12) |
| Overall not hot | Water supply temperature is insufficient | Check boiler settings (should be ≥ 45℃) |
| Partially cold | Pipe blockage/gas blockage | Professional cleaning or exhaust treatment |
| Heats up slowly | Insulation layer failed | Check the ground insulation material (recommended XPS board ≥ 2cm) |
2. Comparison of popular measured data
| solution | Number of test households | efficient | Average time taken |
|---|---|---|---|
| System exhaust | 127 households | 68% | 1.5 hours |
| Clean pipes | 89 households | 82% | 3 hours |
| Adjust the floor | 43 households | 91% | Need to be replaced as a whole |
3. Step-by-step troubleshooting guide
1.Basic check:First confirm whether the main valve of the heating system is open and whether the thermostat setting is correct (recommended initial temperature is 23°C).
2.Pipeline test:Touch the pipes in each loop of the water distributor. If the temperature difference is >5℃, it means there is a circulation problem.
3.Floor inspection:Using an infrared thermometer, the normal temperature difference should be 3-5°C between the ground and room temperature.
4.Professional diagnosis:If there is no abnormality in the above inspection, it is recommended to contact the floor heating company to conduct a system pressure test (standard value 1.5-2bar).
4. Latest industry trends
According to the October report of the China Floor Heating Association: Among the complaints about wooden floor heating in 2023,63%It is related to improper floor selection. Experts recommend the following matching solutions:
| floor type | Suitable thickness | thermal conductivity |
|---|---|---|
| Solid wood composite flooring | 8-12mm | 14-17 |
| laminate flooring | 7-10mm | 12-15 |
| SPC stone plastic floor | 4-6mm | 18-22 |
5. Answers to users’ high-frequency questions
Q: The floor heating has been turned on for 3 days and it’s still not hot?
A: The normal heating cycle is 12-24 hours. If it exceeds this time, the system water injection pressure must be checked (should be ≥1bar).
Q: Can I clean the floor heating myself?
A: Professional cleaning is recommended. DIY operations may cause pipeline damage (the October report on the entire network shows that the DIY damage rate is as high as 37%).
6. Special reminder from experts
1. When using floor heating for the first time, you shouldstep heating(Raise 5°C daily) to prevent floor cracking
2. During winter operation, it is recommended to maintainIndoor humidity above 40%Prevent wood from drying out
3. It should be carried out every year before the heating season.System maintenance, can reduce the probability of failure by 80%
Through the above structured solutions, most problems of underfloor heating of wooden floors can be effectively improved. If the problem persists, it is recommended to keep temperature records (temperature measurement data three times a day) for professional analysis.
