Underfloor Heating
Products and Information |
| Underfloor Heating - the Benefits to you and your
home |
- COMFORT - Underfloor heating heats from the
floor upwards allowing an even distribution of heat and maximising comfort
levels. Radiators only offer localised heat and normally need to run at a
much higher temperature. Heat from radiators convects directly to ceiling
level leaving the temperature at floor level much lower. A concentration of
heat at head height can cause discomfort.
- EASE OF CONTROL - The smallest temperature
difference between the floor and the air above means the system is easy to
regulate. With individual room control being a common feature of underfloor
heating systems, you can individually adjust temperature settings in each
room of the house.
- COST EFFECTIVENESS - Underfloor heating can
result in a 15-40% energy saving over traditional heating methods.
- SPACE AND AESTHETICS - By using underfloor
heating you can gain more useable space when compared to traditional heating
methods. With underfloor heating, wet floors dry quicker and the peeling of
wallpaper and discolouration of paint is prevented.
- SILENCE - Compared with radiators, there is no
noise with underfloor heating.
- HYGIENE - Underfloor Heating helps to reduce
the number of dust mites in your home because moisture content levels are too
low. This can aid sufferers of asthma and other breathing complications.
