Underfloor heating is a method of heating indoor areas by installing a heating system below a floors surface. This heating system generates heat which rises from the floor and in turn, warms up the room and provides a comfortable and very even distribution of heat. This makes it a very viable and desireable alternative to traditional heating systems such as traditional radiators.
A water underfloor heating system operates by circulating warm water through pipes that are installed beneath the floor of a building. These pipes are most often made of a high-density polyethylene (HDPE) or cross-linked PERT and connect to a central boiler or heat pump that heats the water.
The heated water circulates through the pipes and warms the floor from below, radiating heat into the room and is typically thermostatically controlled.
Water underfloor heating is often used as a primary heating system in new builds or is retrofitted in existing buildings. It can be installed under a variety of flooring types including stone, ceramic tile, wood and even carpet.
Water underfloor heating is well known for providing a comfortable, consistent heat throughout a space. It is considered more energy efficient than traditional radiator based heating systems.
Electric underfloor heating is installed beneath the floor of a building to provide warmth and comfort. It is made up of of a series of electric heating elements that are laid out in a pattern underneath the floor. This can be in the form of heating mats or heating cables, with the system again typically controlled by a thermostat, regulating the temperature of the floor and the surrounding space.
Electric underfloor heating is typically installed during new build or renovation of a building, and can be used as either a primary or secondary heating system. It is commonly used in bathrooms and kitchens, or other areas where tiled or stone floors are common.
Electric underfloor heating is often chosen over traditional heating systems when fitting a water system is not practical. It can provide a more consistent, evenly distributed heat than traditional radiators and can help to reduce energy costs, depending upon the circumstances.
OLCO are builders first and foremost and extensive experience of not only all aspects of floor installation but implementing heating systems beneath. Why not have OLCO complete the entire project – if we are laying a subfloor and screed anyway….we can take on the whole job!
