The advantages of underfloor heating

Underfloor heating heats from the floor upwards which allows an even distribution of heat maximising comfort levels. Conventional systems using radiators only offer localised heat and normally need to run at a much higher temperature. Heat from radiators rises directly to ceiling level leaving the temperature at floor level much lower.  Many find that a concentration of heat at head height can cause discomfort.

Control of the heat is simple with the smallest temperature difference between the floor and the air above means the system is easy to regulate. With individual room control being a common feature of underfloor heating systems, you can individually adjust temperature settings in each room of the house. Better still, by installing underfloor heating you can save hard earned money as this can result in a 15-40% energy saving over traditional heating methods.

Important health benefits can be seen with the use of underfloor heating particularly asthma sufferers, the system helps to reduce the number of dust mites in your home because moisture content levels are too low.
