Benefits of underfloor heating

  • Even heat distribution: Unlike traditional radiators, underfloor heating provides even warmth throughout the room.
  • Energy efficiency: Due to its low surface temperature, underfloor heating is more energy-efficient than other heating methods.
  • Space-saving: With no bulky radiators taking up wall space, you have more freedom in furniture placement and room design.
  • Silent operation: Underfloor heating operates silently, making it a perfect option for bedrooms and other quiet spaces.

Underfloor heating options

Underfloor heating offers a range of options to suit different preferences and requirements.

Hydronic underfloor heating:

Also known as water-based underfloor heating, this system uses a network of pipes that circulate hot water beneath the floor. It is typically connected to a central heating system or a dedicated heat source like a boiler or heat pump.

Wet systems:

Wet underfloor heating systems involve embedding pipes or tubing within a screed or concrete layer. The pipes are then connected to a heat source, such as a boiler, which circulates hot water through the pipes to provide radiant heat. Wet systems are commonly used in new construction projects.

Customer satisfaction guaranteed: We’re dedicated to delivering first-class service and ensuring you’re completely satisfied with your underfloor heating solution.

Serving Colchester and the surrounding areas, we’re proud to provide reliable, high-quality underfloor heating services tailored to your needs.

Key differences

Hydronic underfloor heating and wet systems both provide radiant heat but differ in key ways. Hydronic systems use pipes to circulate hot water directly under the floor and offer more flexibility in zoning and temperature control.

Wet systems embed pipes in a screed or concrete layer, making them ideal for new construction or major renovations. Hydronic systems are compatible with various flooring types, while wet systems typically require a screed layer and are connected to a central heating system.

When considering underfloor heating options, factors such as the type of flooring, installation requirements, energy efficiency, and personal preferences should be taken into account.
