Floor Heating for Cold Storage

Floor Heating for Cold Storage

Floor heating for  cold storage facilities are used to prevent the floors from freezing and icing, thereby preventing structural damage and accidents. This system works by laying heating cables or mats under the floor. The heating cables or mats are heated by electricity and give heat to the floor.

Advantages of Floor Heating for  Cold Storage Facilities

The main advantages of floor heating systems in cold storage facilities are as follows:

  • Prevents the floors from freezing and icing, thereby preventing structural damage and accidents.
  • Prolongs the life of the floor.
  • Improves the thermal insulation of the facility.
  • Increases the energy efficiency of the facility.

Types of Floor Heating  for Cold Room Storage Facilities

Floor heating systems in cold storage facilities are divided into two main groups depending on the heating element used:

  • Wired systems: In this system, heated cables are laid under the floor. The cables are secured on a mesh that is laid on the floor.
  • Mat systems: In this system, heating mats are laid under the floor. The mats are laid directly on the floor.

    Installation of Floor Heating for  Cold Storage Facilities

    The installation of floor heating systems in cold storage facilities is a very careful process. Before installation, the capacity and requirements of the system must be calculated correctly. Also, the floor area where the system will be installed must be smooth and level.

    In wired systems, before the cables are laid under the floor, a mesh is laid on the surface of the floor. The cables are secured on this mesh. The connections of the cables are made with a control unit.

    In mat systems, the mats are laid directly on the floor. The connections of the mats are made with a control unit.

    Maintenance of Floor Heating for  Cold Storage Facilities

    Regular maintenance of floor heating systems in cold storage facilities is important to maintain the efficiency and life of the system. The following tasks should be performed as part of maintenance:

    • Check for any damage to the cables or mats in the system.
    • Check for any looseness or breakage in the connections in the system.
    • The control unit in the system should be cleaned regularly.

    Conclusion

    Floor heating systems in cold storage facilities are an important system used to protect the floors of cold storage facilities from freezing and icing. This system prevents the floor from structural damage and accidents. It also prolongs the life of the floor, improves the thermal insulation of the facility, and increases the energy efficiency of the facility
