Water Underfloor Heating System

Environmentally friendly because we use condensing water heaters our systems have lower emissions than others.

Water underfloor heating system. Warm water or wet underfloor heating which we will focus on in this article electric underfloor heating in basic terms a wet underfloor heating system features pipes filled by warm water and powered by a boiler or heat pump concealed within the floor and typically embedded within a screed. Because the heat emitted from an underfloor system is more evenly distributed than a single radiator the system can use water at a lower temperature. The underfloor heating warmth is even too and so eliminates any cold spots or draughts in a room that are common with radiators. From environmentally friendly solar power to electricity and gas.

Wet underfloor heating emits enough energy to bring your room to your comfort temperature at flow temperatures of 30 40 degrees. Alternatively you can connect the underfloor water pipes to a solar water heating system air source or ground source heat pump. Modern underfloor heating systems use either electrical resistance elements electric systems or fluid flowing in pipes hydronic systems to heat the floor. Warm water underfloor heating solutions use far lower flow temperatures than a radiator system also and because it covers a much larger surface area it is still able to heat the room effectively.

Water based underfloor heating is widely used as an alternative to electrical underfloor heating throughout the world primarily because it can use a combination of different heat sources to warm up your home. Our system operates at lower temperatures so less fuel is needed to heat the water and our hot water heaters condense flue gasses to get maximum heating from your fuel. This could make your home more. Electric underfloor heating uses wires or heat mats beneath the floor to create the same warming effect.

Underfloor heating comes in a couple of forms that each have different advantages. Either type can be installed as the primary whole building heating system or as localized floor heating for thermal comfort. Water underfloor heating is a highly cost efficient heating system to run as it uses much less energy than a central heating system. With water underfloor heating pipes carrying warm water are laid beneath the floor and it works just like a radiator does on your wall allowing heat to flow through the floor and into your room.
