Underfloor Heating

Underfloor heating is a very efficient way of heating the rooms of a house. It is relatively cheap to install, there are no radiators or heaters on show, there is no maintenance and the heat is distributed evenly around the rooms. Underfloor heating is very easy to install in a new build property and it can be retrofit into an existing property.

With a typical domestic network of radiators, most of the energy is wasted heating the room at ceiling height. By the time that expensively warmed air descends back into the living space, it has already lost a lot of heat and it causes draughts. Underfloor heating warms the air just above the floor and that warm air then rises through the living space cooling as it rises. Very little energy is therefore wasted and rooms are heated to make them more comfortable - warm feet and a cooler head rather than cold feet and a hot head.
