Electric underfloor heating – the easy heating solution for conservatory, kitchen and bathroom floors – both timber and tiled.
Using under floor heating to heat your conservatory / home can prove to be a very efficient way to heat because it's invisible once installed and allows you the freedom to design your interior the way you want.
Whether it is in your conservatory, bathroom or your kitchen, tile, stone and slate floors have traditionally been beautiful finishes to a floor but have also been very cold surfaces to live with.
Unfortunately traditional forced air heating systems did little to ease the temperature on these floorings. |

With modern electric under floor radiant heating this is no longer the case. By laying heating cables underneath the tiles the floor can be warmed up to a comfortable temperature.
While wooden floors are usually warmer than tile or stone floors it had until relatively recently been considered unwise to combine underfloor heating with any form of wooden / timber flooring.
With radiant heating, floor surfaces in conservatories, bathrooms, and kitchens are not only beautiful to look at but also warm and inviting to live with.
Radiant heating works differently to conventional heating systems that rely on convection through air movement to spread heat. |

Radiant heat is in the form of waves. Instead of heating the air these waves heat the surface of objects or people in the room. Surfaces include walls, windows, floors and ceilings. These surfaces then gently warm the surrounding air.
Additionally because the air does not circulate there are no draughts created and much less dust is circulating in the room which brings higher comfort levels not only for allergy suffers but for every one in the room. As there is an even spread of heat throughout the living space this means no cold feet and higher comfort levels overall.
Radiant heating also provides savings on energy costs when combined with the use of high insulation levels and control equipment. |
