In this paper are discussed the thermal performance of a solar house which has air-type solar heating system and Water Floor. The Water Floor is composed of wooden floor and water bags in the floor framing and is used for heat storage and floor heating, and also to decrease the temperature difference in the house. The thermal performance of this house and the effect of Water Floor on the indoor climate control is discussed using the long-term monitoring data in winter. The results show that Water Floor has good performance both of heat storage and heat distribution and the indoor environment is kept in comfortable level.
