What are the advantages of underfloor heating?
Whether water-based or electric-based, underfloor heating is a modern alternative to traditional radiators. This popular heating solution offers several benefits, as follows:
Heat spaces more evenly
Underfloor heating covers a large surface area, and it distributes heat more evenly throughout your home. This helps avoid hot and cold spots, keeping rooms warm even if a door or window is left open.
Improve energy efficiency
Underfloor heating operates at lower temperatures than radiators, making it a more energy-efficient option. This can lower your energy bills while keeping your home comfortable and cosy.
Free up wall space
No more bulky radiators! Underfloor heating gives you clean walls and more usable space – ideal for London properties where every inch counts.
