5 Underfloor Heating Benefits That We Love

The UK is always bringing its chill, but if you're already dreaming of warmer days ahead, consider the cozy embrace of a professionally designed underfloor heating system to bring the heat into your home.


5 Benefits of Underfloor Heating

Whether you opt for a warm water setup or an electric system, here are five reasons why we're big fans of underfloor heating:


1. Design Freedom:

Planning a renovation, extension, or building from scratch? Underfloor heating offers unparalleled design flexibility. By radiating heat from beneath the floor, you can bid farewell to clunky radiators, freeing up valuable wall and floor space for your furnishings and decor.


Also, its not to be forgotten that you can have underfloor heating in whatever room you like! it could be the whole house or just individual rooms, like your new stylish extension. Also there are no limitations* to flooring types as we have water and electric systems to suit all floor types.


2. Healthy Homes:

Beyond warmth, underfloor heating contributes to healthier living spaces. Unlike radiators that stir up dust with their convection currents, underfloor heating operates through gentle radiation, reducing airborne dust particles by up to 80%. This is a godsend for the 60% of UK residents whose asthma symptoms are triggered by dust mites. .


3. Safety:

Concerned about hot surfaces, especially in homes with children or elderly residents? Underfloor heating eliminates the risk of burns or injuries from hot radiators, offering a safer heating solution for all environments. As well as the daunting sharp corners that can be found on most radiators!


4. Cost Savings:

While the initial investment may be higher than traditional radiator systems, underfloor heating offers long-term cost savings. With smart heating controls, you can manage heating efficiently, adjusting room by room as needed.


Properly designed and calculated, underfloor heating can improve energy efficiency ratings and deliver savings of up to 40% compared to conventional heating methods. Contact us today for a bespoke underfloor heating quote.


5. Compatibility with Heat Pumps:

With the push towards low-carbon heating solutions, underfloor heating pairs perfectly with heat pumps. Both systems operate efficiently at lower temperatures, making them an ideal match.


The government's Renewable Heat Incentive Scheme incentivizes the adoption of heat pumps, further promoting environmentally friendly heating options. Homes can currently get £7,500 to install a heat pump, meaning they can be cheaper than gas boilers, thanks to one of the most generous schemes in Europe.
