What is underfloor heating?

Underfloor heating is a way of heating a home through strong and flexible tubing that is embedded in the floor. It is efficient and affordable, offering numerous advantages over radiators.

There are various types of underfloor heating systems available. The best underfloor heating solution for you will depend on a range of factors including your project type, your current heating system and energy source.

Suitable for most properties
Energy-efficient
Maximises space in the home
Luxurious feeling of warm floors
Flexible control through zoning areas of the home

How does underfloor heating work?

Underfloor heating essentially works by turning the floor area into a giant, efficient and invisible heat emitter. Heating tubes or cables are installed beneath the floor, which heat up, to warm the room from the ground up. Strong, flexible tubing is used for warm water underfloor heating systems, whilst cables are used in electric underfloor heating systems.

Because underfloor heating covers such a large surface area, it is able to use much lower water temperatures than radiators. This helps to improve efficiency – especially with a heat pump – and also better heats a room as there are no cold spots.

Why underfloor heating design matters

We design your system to suit your home so that your underfloor heating performs as expected.

Our design process takes into account room-by-room heat loss, optimized running efficiency, and other critical factors to ensure your system heats your home in a better way.

A designed underfloor system will be responsive and achieve the perfect temperature – not too hot or too cold.
Maximum efficiency can be achieved by optimizing the system to produce the right amount of heat with minimal energy use.
Your installer will receive a detailed tube layout and electrical drawings, simplifying installation.
Each room can be set to a different temperature, giving you complete comfort.
Because we calculate the amount of tubing and materials required, any excess is kept to a minimum – reducing waste.

Underfloor heating with heat pumps

Air source heat pumps are at their most efficient when producing low temperatures over a sustained period of time.

An underfloor heating system uses water that is around 40-45°C, circulating this across the entire floor area to heat your home. In comparison, a traditional radiator system needs to use water that is far hotter, around 70-80°C, in order to heat the room/s using a much smaller surface area.

This is why integrating an air source heat pump with underfloor heating is the preferred combination, ensuring you get the maximum benefit from your heat pump system.

Why you should pair underfloor heating with an air source heat pump

Property Survey

During consultation, our sales manager will provide advice and answer any questions that may be asked.

Once we establish the type of renewable heating solution the customer is interested in, a no obligation quotation is provided followed by free site visits.

Once we have then assessed and understood the exact requirements, we will provide a fully-documented proposal.

Product Installation

Once installation is underway, our project managers and installation teams work with the customer to ensure a smooth transition from their existing heating system to the new technology.

Our teams have considerable knowledge of both the technology and the system design as well as experience within the renewable heating industry and the commercial and domestic heating sector.

Product Maintenance

Once commissioned, our service team are on hand for any call-outs, all of which are free within the 12 months following commissioning.

We always recommend annual servicing to ensure that the system continues to run efficiently and to provide peace of mind that any problems are discovered and resolved quickly.
