Underfloor Heating Installation & Repair Specialists

We offer the widest available range of underfloor heating systems, with a product available for every conceivable floor type within your residential property.

Underfloor heating systems can be quickly and easily fitted over an existing floor, or built into a new one, in one room or throughout the whole house. Find out more about the benefits of underfloor heating installation below.

Wet Underfloor Heating Systems

Wet underfloor heating systems involve a series of pipes connected to the boiler, which circulate warm water under the floor. This distributes the heat evenly across the surface of the floor, meaning that the space can be heated using water at a lower temperature than is usually required with a single radiator.

Polypipe underfloor heating is one of the most common choices when it comes to underfloor heating systems, boasting benefits from cost-efficiency to a full range of floor systems.

Dry, or Electric, Underfloor Heating Systems

Unlike wet underfloor heating, dry underfloor heating uses a network of wires under the floor rather than a series of pipes. These wires or heating mats then warm up evenly, spreading the heat through the floor’s surface.

Electric underfloor heating is often recommended for existing builds, as it is easier to install than the polypipe network required for wet heating systems. Electric floor heating can often heat up quicker than wet solutions, but it is likely to be more expensive to run than the gas-fed wet systems.

Underfloor Heating for Most Floor Coverings

Underfloor heating works with most floor coverings, from ceramic and stone tiles to wood, engineered wood and carpet. Tile and stone floor surfaces have the highest thermal conductivity, however. This means that they do the most effective job at distributing heat from the system to the floor surface quickly and efficiently - as well as retaining the heat well.

While they are arguably the most effective choice, underfloor heating is still an excellent option for other floor coverings; we’re happy to talk you through the pros and cons of each floor covering option during our initial discussion.

Other Reasons Why Customers Tend to Choose Underfloor Heating Systems

The cost-effective, controllable way to heat a home, wet underfloor heating gently and evenly warms water in a network of pipes and uses this to heat the surface of the floor.

This uses less energy than electric systems, and can run as low as 35°C - compared with radiators that typically operate at 80°C. Underfloor heating systems also typically hold on to the heat for longer, unlike radiators which cool down rapidly once switched off.

Removing the need for radiators helps to free up precious wall and floor space for decorating or rearranging a room, as well as being generally more hygienic than radiators. Studies have found that underfloor heating can help reduce respiratory discomfort, as well as significantly decrease the volume of dust mites found in a home.

Not only is it compatible with most floor surfaces, it’s a great way to take control of heating costs while creating a warm and comfortable home.
