Underfloor heating need not be an added luxury anymore due to the affordability and flexibility of its installation. With underfloor heating, you can use every square meter of your home the way you want to use it.
A plumber can easily remove your radiators. Look through any magazine and you will notice that pictures of quality bathrooms, kitchens and lounges never show radiators.
We believe that radiators are inefficient, expensive to maintain and take up valuable wall space; interior designers know this and avoid them whenever possible.
Radiators result in a stuffy, uncomfortable atmosphere and promote heat loss through windows, walls, ceilings, and roofs. The result is wasted energy and wasted money. Below are 4 benefits of underfloor heating and reasons why you should forget inconvenient and inefficient radiators.
Warm-ups Lifetime Warranty and zero maintenance costs mean ultra-low lifetime costs Warmup® unfertile heaters are guaranteed for the lifetime of your floor.
With no radiators to bleed or boilers to service, electric underfloor heating has no maintenance costs and will never let you down. Ever…
Underfloor heating allows for quick heat-up in only the rooms needed with precise zone control. A Warmup® system installed on an insulated floor (above the screed), reaches operating temperature in 20 minutes allowing you to heat only the rooms you need when you need them.
This is much faster than the usual 4 hours required by water-based floor heating systems.
Underfloor heating dries wet floors more quickly, making cleaning faster. Floor heating reduces your home`s moisture content and eliminates the moisture dust mites need to survive.
Also eliminated is the “chimney effect” of radiators which act as dust traps and then create drafts that move dust and other irritants around the room and causes wallpaper to discolour and peel.
This is a huge benefit to sufferers of asthma and other breathing difficulties.
Underfloor heating spreads warmth over the entire floor area, resulting in about half the heat being emitted as low-temperature radiant heat.
Warming a large area at a low temperature (21-25°C / 70-77°F) produces the most comfortable and efficient form of heating possible by reducing the heat loss from our bodies without overheating the surrounding air.
So forget radiators – fit Warmup® now and experience the difference.
In order to determine the type of underfloor heater and the number of thermostats required for your floor, you’ll need to measure the area you would like to be heated.
Remember not to include areas under bathroom units. Please refer to the table below for sizing details.
