Heating methods

Often, designers neglect this issue, boldly dismantling the heating radiator from the bay window in order to increase its total area. Most often, such a risk is absolutely not justified, since the external wall is completely unheated. The main thing is to avoid the appearance of dampness and mold, which leads to excessive humidity. These factors will adversely affect the state of furniture. This, together with a considerable area of ​​glazing, necessitates the consideration of additional heating methods. Among those - installation of water or electric underfloor heating. By lifting up warm air, the bay window is heated in its entirety.

Among other things, the installation of such a system helps to raise the floor level in the corresponding area, so that it can be distinguished in the form of a podium. And the interior of the kitchen in private homes often allows you to mount floor convectors with a heat exchanger located along the outer wall. Through special gaps in the floor, warm air will penetrate inside, maintaining the proper temperature near the windows and in the room as a whole. In addition, it is worth taking care of the quality of the double-glazed windows and regular ventilation to avoid air stagnation.
