Underfloor Heating Installation

Why choose underfloor heating?

There are several compelling reasons why you should consider getting underfloor heating installed in your home or business.

First and foremost, underfloor heating provides a more comfortable and evenly distributed heat compared to traditional radiators. This is because the heat rises from the floor, eliminating cold spots and creating a more pleasant environment. With underfloor heating, you’ll no longer experience the discomfort of cold feet on a cold morning, and your space will feel cosy and inviting.

Secondly, underfloor heating is more energy-efficient than traditional heating systems. This is because it operates at a lower temperature, which means it uses less energy to produce the same level of heat. By installing underfloor heating, you can significantly reduce your energy bills and lower your carbon footprint.

Additionally, many underfloor heating systems are compatible with renewable energy sources such as solar and wind power, further reducing your environmental impact.

Finally, underfloor heating is aesthetically pleasing and frees up valuable wall space. Traditional radiators can be unsightly and take up valuable wall space, making it challenging to arrange furniture and décor. With underfloor heating, you’ll have more design flexibility, and your space will look clean, uncluttered, and modern.

Underfloor heating installation process

The installation process of underfloor heating by Radiant Renewables typically involves the following steps:

• Initial consultation: Radiant Renewables will conduct an initial consultation with you to discuss your requirements, assess the site, and recommend the most suitable underfloor heating system.
• System design: Once you agree to proceed, Radiant Renewables will design the underfloor heating system to meet your specific requirements. This includes calculating the heat loss, determining the optimal layout of the heating pipes, and specifying the necessary components.
• Installation: The installation process itself involves laying the underfloor heating pipes on the subfloor and connecting them to a manifold, which regulates the flow of water or electricity. Once the pipes are installed, Radiant Renewables will conduct a pressure test to ensure they are leak-free.
• Commissioning: Once the flooring has been laid over the underfloor heating system, Radiant Renewables will then commission the system and test it to ensure it is operating correctly. We will also provide you with instructions on how to use and maintain the underfloor heating system.

Benefits of underfloor heating

Underfloor heating is an increasingly popular heating solution for homes and businesses, offering several advantages over traditional heating systems. One of the main advantages of underfloor heating is its energy efficiency. Traditional heating systems, such as radiators, can create hot and cold spots in a room, resulting in wasted energy and higher energy bills.

With underfloor heating, the heat is distributed evenly throughout the room, creating a more comfortable and efficient heating solution. This means you can save money on your energy bills and reduce your carbon footprint, making it an eco-friendly option.

Another advantage of underfloor heating is its space-saving design. Traditional heating systems require bulky radiators or boilers that can take up valuable wall space, limiting your ability to arrange furniture and décor. Underfloor heating, on the other hand, is discreetly installed under the floor, freeing up wall space and providing more design flexibility. This can be particularly useful in small spaces or rooms with unusual layouts.

Underfloor heating is also a more hygienic option than traditional heating systems.

Radiators can collect dust and other allergens, which can circulate in the air and exacerbate respiratory problems. Underfloor heating, by contrast, operates silently and does not circulate air, making it a more comfortable and healthier heating solution. This is particularly beneficial for people with allergies or respiratory conditions.
