UNDER FLOOR HEATING INSTALLATION
Looking for new ways to heat your home?
Underfloor heating (UFH) could be the solution for you. As well as an absolute treat for you feet during the cold winter mornings, it’s a great space-saver as well as an energy-efficient way to warm up your household.
There are plenty of benefits of underfloor heating:
Energy efficient & low running costs
Design freedom
Tailored temperature control
Reduced dust circulation and increased safety
Comfort & warm floors
There are no radiators to spoil the clean lines of a room, and space can be saved by freeing up a wall that would otherwise need to be dedicated to a radiator.
Underfloor heating is also an extremely efficient way to warm a room, and gives a more pleasant heat than radiators, stoves or traditional solid-fuel fires. Heat is emited in a very gentle way. There are no cold spots and, as most of the heat is concentrated in the lower part of the room, very little heat is wasted.Underfloor heating of this type also reduces water-heating costs as it uses water at a lower temperature than standard radiators (about 40°C to 65°C to give a floor temperature of between 23°C and 32°C).
Retrofit UFH
A retrofit underfloor heating system specifically designed for retrofit, whole-house projects, extensions, conservatories and properties with lower levels of insulation.One of the highest heat outputs available and outstanding response times make this a perfect replacement for a radiator system. Its low height build-up – averaging just 22mm – allows it to be laid on top of existing floors, ideal for running from old rooms to new extensions.
Benefits include:
Outstanding thermal conductivity – heat outputs up to 120W/m2
Super-fast response time – can be timed and run as you would a traditional radiator system
Just 22mm average height increase over existing floor level
Laid over an existing floor with minimal disruption
Simple and quick to install
High structural and compressive strength
One-third of the running cost of electric UFH
Range of thermostat options – including wireless thermostats
Perfectly level surface for tiling
Floor coverings can be fitted after 72 hours
