Under floor heating is not a new idea, in fact, the Romans were using it 2,000 years ago. Electric underfloor heating in the UK, on the other hand, is relatively new and has only been in use since the 1960s. However, it has progressed a long way since then. Especially in the last few years.
Advancements to under floor heating since the 1960s:
- Energy efficiency has improved dramatically with the use of high tech insulation.
- Installation is simpler now as it does not need to be fixed deep into thick concrete floors.
- The whole floor is heated up more evenly and smoothly without getting too hot giving total heat distribution.
- The heat is more simply and easily controlled with digital underfloor heating thermostats.
- Reliability is great now with floor heating being the long lasting option that requires no maintenance.
