Underfloor heating
Underfloor heating gives even, comfortable warmth without radiators taking up wall space. Warm-water systems suit larger areas and new builds, while electric mats are neat in a single bathroom. Describe the room, the floor type and whether it is new build or a renovation.
Frequently asked questions
Should I choose electric or warm-water underfloor heating?
Electric is cheaper to install in small rooms, while warm-water systems are often more economical to run across larger areas. Companies can price both if you are unsure which suits your space.
Can underfloor heating go under any floor?
Most floor types work, but heat output and maximum temperatures differ — tile and stone conduct heat best, while some timber and carpet need care. The installer will advise on what suits your chosen floor.
Will it raise the floor level much?
Low-profile systems add only a small build-up, sometimes little more than a centimetre, which makes underfloor heating feasible even in a renovation. Mention your floor build-up limits in your request.
