How to make underfloor heating

Steps

1. 1
   In the Zones and thermostat row, choose a zone: Hydronic floor heating, Cable or Infrared heating film.
2. 2
   Draw it on the plan. The Floor heating zone window opens on the right, with Drawing method in it:

   • Rectangle: drag with the mouse, anything beyond the wall is trimmed off. A click without dragging gives the zone the whole room, even an L-shaped one;
   • Point by point: click the corners of the outline, they stick to the walls. Close it by clicking the first point, with Enter or with a double-click.

   Corners move by grid cell, with Ctrl exactly under the cursor. A zone is placed only inside a room and does not overlap another one. The tool stays on for the next zone.
3. 3
   In 3D, a zone is placed with a click on a room, covering the whole room.
4. 4
   Hydronic floor: place a manifold (the Manifold and supply row) and click Build in the Manifold pipes step. In the zone window, choose the laying pitch (15 cm by default).
5. 5
   Electric floor: in the zone window, enter the specific power, W/m², and place a thermostat in the room (the Thermostat tile; it is also in Electrics).
6. 6
   To adjust the outline, select the zone: circles appear at the corners, small squares on the sides. You can move, rotate and copy the zone, but it will not go beyond the wall.
7. 7
   Wall heating is placed from the Zones, wall heating and thermostat row: it is a strip on the wall, its width and height define the heating part. Enter the specific power, W/m², in the window.
