Underfloor heating (UFH) is becoming the most efficient way to heat your home.
Most properties in the UK have radiators or fires as their primary heat source. However, they can be inefficient, cause cold spots, and require wall space. Upkeep and maintenance can be costly over time too. UFH can be a much better option.
There are lots of advantages if you choose underfloor heating. Most importantly, it is efficient and can save operating costs as well as carbon emissions. It does this because the entire floor becomes a heat emitter rather than relying on a single radiator or fire. The size means it can have a lower water temperature.
In addition, the system can be more responsive and you can control the temperature in each room. The system is also invisible because it is fitted into the floor.
Installations
UFH is suitable for all types of buildings. However, it is easier and less disruptive to install it in new build or large extensions. Retrofitting is possible though.
There are lots of options for the system, but they generally fall into two categories; warm water tubing (wet systems) and electric cables (dry systems). In our opinion, wet underfloor heating is the gold standard for heating design and performance for the 21st century.
