Typically, underfloor heating has been seen as an expensive luxury, however, it is a much more affordable service in recent times and can provide your home with the perfect ambience.

Keeping your home warm across cold winters is essential, especially for homes located in particularly colder areas. To do this, you can invest in a combination of floor insulation and underfloor heating.

Below are our top reasons as to why you need underfloor heating.

1. Energy Efficient

Typically, homes rely on radiators to warm up their properties. However, radiators require a heated temperature between 65-75 degrees Celsius in order to provide a sufficient level of comfort.

Underfloor heating is a lot more energy efficient, requiring heating up to a temperature of 29 Celsius or less (this depends on the floor finish).

Therefore, underfloor heating systems require a lot less energy to run that your tradition radiator and this reduces your energy bills and your carbon footprint and can improve your EPC rating.

2. Easy

Electric systems as a whole do not require much regular servicing; however, water and gas systems may require more frequent reviews and maintenance.

3. Modern Design
