THE COOL EFFECT OF MARBLE IN SUMMER There are many options when it comes to the right materials for floors, but when the days get hot, the best option is something to keep the house, terrace, balcony or room cool. Marble flooring is one of the options that can help you keep your rooms cooler, especially in summer. Marble is a type of rock derived from limestone and formed by circulating a large amount of heat and pressure underground. The way marble is formed makes it denser, harder and more durable than other commonly used materials such as tiles, porcelain, wood and ceramics. THE HEAT TRANSFER OF THE MATERIAL Even when the rest of your house feels warm, your marble floor will keep its cool feeling. Often, you will find that it feels colder than other surfaces in your home. This is because the marble stone conducts heat in a different way. The high density and hardness allow heat to transfer from a warm object, such as your soles. The heat also dissipates quickly through the marble, so that the floor does not feel warm. With carpeted or wood floors, the fibers and small air pockets in these materials heat up, but the hot air does not dissipate quickly, causing an acute feeling of heat. so that the floor does not feel warm.

Although the surface of the marble floor may feel cold, its temperature is actually similar to the air in your home. Your body heats up, so any surface you touch is likely to feel colder, due to the difference between body temperature and air temperature. A COOLER AND HYGIENIC ENVIRONMENT Marble floors are also great for more furry pets, as they can stay on the floor to keep them cool during the summer. Marble flooring is hygienic and will not collect bacteria such as wooden floors or those covered with textiles. Therefore, choosing the marble floor you can be sure that you will achieve not only a cooler environment, but also a cleaner and allergen-free indoor environment. |
