HEATING FLOOR FINISHING MATERIAL

PURPOSE:To enable a heating floor surface to be formed by a method wherein a heating floor finishing material is provided with a thermal transmitting pipe fitted in a groove of the floor finishing material and fixed with a resilient adhesive, a reflection material arranged to cover the rear surface of the floor finishing material as well as the transmitting pipe and a thermal insulating material piled up on the reflection material. CONSTITUTION:A floor finishing material 1 has its surface 4 as its finishing surface. A rear surface 5 has two parallel grooves 6 along its Iongitudinal direction. Each of the grooves has a thermal transmitting pipe 7 inserted therein. The thermal transmitting pipe 7 is made such that a copper pipe is formed into a flat shape and it is fixed while its flat direction being directed in parallel with a surface 4 of the floor finishing material 1 and it is fixed to each of the grooves 6 with the resilient adhesive agent. A reflection material 8 is arranged to cover the rear surface 5 of the floor finishing material 1 as well as the thermal transmitting pipe 7. A thermal insulating material 9 is piled up below the reflection material. After each of the floor finishing materials 1 is fixed to a floor joist 10 with a nail or the like, an end part of each of the thermal transmitting pipes 7 is connected by a coupler 11. Hot water is flowed in the thermal transmitting pipes 7, thereby heat of the hot water is transmitted to the surface 4 of the floor finishing material 1 through the thermal transmitting pipes 7 and a heating operation is carried out through a thermal radiation from the surface 4.
