How does underfloor heating work?

Simply put, underfloor heating transforms your floor into an efficient heating system, emitting warmth evenly throughout the room. With either cables or heating tubes discreetly installed beneath the floor, heat rises from the ground up. Electric systems utilize cables, while warm water systems employ flexible tubing. Notably, underfloor heating operates at lower water temperatures than radiators, benefiting from its extensive surface area coverage. This not only enhances efficiency but ensures uniform heating without any cold spots.

What are the advantages of an underfloor heating system?

Your floor will be warm and heated

Underfloor heating offers a gentle warmth that emanates from beneath your floor, ensuring your once cold floor becomes comfortably warm to the touch. Its even distribution of heat enhances the coziness of your home.

Flexibility

Underfloor heating systems boast remarkable flexibility, suitable for various property types including new builds, renovations, or extensions. Whether for a single room, multiple rooms, or upstairs areas, they adapt seamlessly.

Discreet & Space saving

With tubes discreetly concealed beneath the floor, underfloor heating systems remain virtually invisible, freeing up valuable space by eliminating the need for bulky radiators. This discreetness is particularly advantageous for small homes and open-plan living spaces.
