Underfloor Heating

Underfloor heating, also known as radiant floor heating, transforms your floor into a large, invisible radiator. It delivers even warmth, excellent comfort and can be highly efficient when paired with a heat pump.

How Underfloor Heating Works

Underfloor heating systems sit beneath the floor surface and distribute heat evenly across the room. Water-based (wet) systems use durable, flexible tubing while electric systems use heating cables.

Wet systems are particularly efficient because their large surface area allows operation at lower water temperatures than radiators — ideal when paired with a heat pump.

Designed Systems Matter

A well-designed system considers room-by-room heat loss and desired running efficiency to deliver the right amount of heat with minimal energy use.

Benefits of a Designed System

  • Responsive temperature control — avoids over/underheating
  • Maximum efficiency — optimized to minimise energy use
  • Ease of installation — detailed layouts simplify work
  • Zoned comfort — individual room temperature control
  • Reduced waste — precise material calculations

Benefits of Underfloor Heating

Energy efficiency & cost savings

Operates at lower temperatures and pairs well with renewable heat sources.

Even heat distribution

Eliminates cold spots and provides consistent comfort.

Space saving design

No radiators means more usable wall space and cleaner interiors.

Reduced carbon emissions

Can be up to 25% more efficient than traditional radiator systems when designed correctly.

Underfloor Heating vs Radiators

While radiators are traditional, they are typically less efficient. Water-based underfloor heating systems can significantly reduce fossil fuel usage and emissions while improving comfort.

On average, underfloor systems can reduce emissions and energy use compared to radiator-based homes, making them a future-proof choice.
