Energy Saving
It is proven that underfloor heating can reduce your heating bills considerably due to the fact that lower temperatures are used over a large area.
Comfort
Under floor heating provides even temperatures throughout the whole room eliminating the cold spots that can be associated with conventional radiator systems. Heating the whole floor warms the living space evenly, as the heat convects upwards from the floor. This in turn creates an even comfort level.
Hygiene
Dust mites require moisture to survive. With under floor heating dust mites are eliminated due to lack of moisture. This benefits people who are asthma sufferers or have other respiratory allergies.
Design Freedom
Under floor heating allows more freedom when planning and designing room layout. All the wall space in the room can be utilised due to the absence of radiators.
