In practical application, when the floor heating device 120 is in a low-temperature environment for a long time and is not used, the controller 110 controls to close the floor heating device 120, and then controls the water storage pipeline 130 to convey water in the floor heating device 120 into the water storage tank 170 for storage, so that the floor heating device 120 is protected from freezing. When the floor heating device 120 needs to be used, that is, the floor heating system 100 needs to be started for heating, the controller 110 controls the water return pipeline 140 to convey water stored in the water storage tank 170 to the floor heating device 120, and then controls to open the floor heating device 120, so that the normal work of the floor heating device 120 is ensured. It will be appreciated that in order to prevent the water stored in the storage tank 170 from freezing, the storage tank 170 is provided with an insulation layer.
It should be noted that the water storage pipeline 130 and the water return pipeline 140 may be the same pipeline, for example, the same pipeline provided with a bidirectional pump can pump the water in the floor heating device 120 into the water storage tank 170 in the forward direction under the control of the controller 110, and can also pump the water stored in the water storage tank 170 back to the floor heating device 120 in the reverse direction.

In this embodiment, the water storage anti-freezing conditions include two aspects of active anti-freezing and automatic anti-freezing, and the active anti-freezing conditions are as follows: the controller 110 receives a water storage freeze prevention command input by a user. That is, when the user does not use the floor heating device 120 for heating for a long time and the environment temperature is low, the user inputs a preset water storage anti-freezing instruction to the controller 110 to perform water storage anti-freezing.

It can be understood that the second preset pressure is greater than the first preset pressure, and when the controller 110 compares the water pressure data fed back by the water pressure detection device 149 to reach the second preset pressure, it is determined that the water amount of the floor heating device 120 meets the requirement of normal heating, at this time, the controller 110 controls the pumping device 133 to stop, and controls the third control valve 145 and the fourth control valve 147 to close.
In the sub-step S1033, when the water level in the water storage tank 170 is lower than the second preset water level, the water replenishing pipe 160 is controlled to introduce external water into the water storage tank 170 so as to maintain the water level in the water storage tank 170 at the second preset water level.
It can be understood that the second preset water level is lower than the first preset water level, during the process of conveying the water in the water storage tank 170 back to the floor heating device 120, the water level in the water storage tank 170 is gradually reduced, for ensuring that the water return process of the floor heating device 120 is smoothly performed, when the water level data fed back by the water level detection device 171 is lower than the second preset water level, the sixth control valve 161 arranged on the control water replenishing pipeline 160 is opened, the water is replenished to the water storage tank 170 through the external water source, so that the water level of the water storage tank 170 is maintained at the second preset water level.
It is understood that there is no sequential order of execution between substep S1032 and substep S1033.
With continuing reference to fig. 2, the anti-freeze method may further include:
and step S104, controlling the floor heating device 120 to be started.
After the water return process of the floor heating device 120 is completed, the controller 110 controls the floor heating device 120 to start up, so that normal heating can be realized to meet the user requirements.
Further, the anti-freezing method can also comprise the following steps:
step S105, when the water pressure in the floor heating device 120 is lower than a third preset pressure, controlling the water return pipeline 140 to input the water stored in the water storage tank 170 into the floor heating device 120 until the water pressure in the floor heating device 120 reaches the third preset pressure.
In this embodiment, the third preset pressure is equal to the second preset pressure. After the return water to the floor heating device 120 is performed through the sub-step S1032, the water pressure in the floor heating device 120 meets the normal working requirement. However, after the floor heating device 120 is used for a period of time, the air originally existing in the floor heating device 120 is discharged when passing through a gas wall-mounted boiler or a water pump, and the water pressure in the floor heating device 120 is reduced. In addition, the floor heating device 120 may also have other conditions that cause water pressure to drop, such as water leakage. The water pressure in the floor heating device 120 is lower than the second preset pressure, that is, the third preset pressure after the water pressure in the floor heating device 120 is reduced, at this time, the controller 110 controls the pumping device 133 to start, and controls the third control valve 145 and the fourth control valve 147 to open, so that instant water supplement to the floor heating device 120 is realized, and the normal work of the floor heating device 120 is ensured.
The anti-freezing method provided by the embodiment of the invention has the characteristics of energy consumption saving and high automation degree, realizes energy saving and anti-freezing of the floor heating device 120 intelligently, can prolong the service life of the floor heating device 120, and can greatly improve the user experience.
Although the present invention is disclosed above, the present invention is not limited thereto. Various changes and modifications may be effected therein by one skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
