Underfloor Heating The Pros & Cons

underfloor heating is really not as effective as a wall / ceiling heating, because of the limitation of 29 degrees. Modern technics like the carbon fiber heating with 0,2 mm thickness just glued or plastered at the wall or the ceiling is effektiv and clean in mounting and usage. The Surface temperature should be around 38 - 44 C an in under 2 minutes you feel the warmth on your body. But if you prefer underfloor heating you should check the structure height first, because of the doors a.s.o. Personally I use wall heating, because it protects your home from mold and moisture.

Pros Provides warm and cosy stone and tile floors. Can replace radiators in a room, freeing up wall and floor space and offering a high-end finish. Lots of flexible options available, covering different flooring types. Possible to install in a new-build or retrospectively. Cons Retrofit installation of underfloor heating can be a upheaval. Not all underfloor heating systems can replace radiators as the main heating source. Longer heat-up times.

Multi fuel stove or underfloor heating
Q

Go for both! Underfloor heating works well when wall space is at a premium due to window openings; properly designed with thermostatic control it should keep the room warm. If you are able to install a multi fuel stove then do so - they can be a great feature in a room and will warm the room (and possibly much of the house!) on those super chilly days - the thermostat on the underfloor heating will ensure this compensates for stove's heat. The only issue we come across with stoves is positioning the flues - particularly if they are in single storey extensions. Of course it is possible to incorporate an aesthetic chimney into the design but there are planning permissions and building regulations to consider - height of flue in relation the windows, roofs etc. If a stove is not possible because of flue issues, consider a gas fire with a balanced flue through and external wall - again these can create a great feature as well as help warm a room

Hi, thanks for the replies. Yes, we've looked at air source and ground source, but there are multiple complications because of our location and the fact we're retrofitting an old house. We're looking at potentially putting an MVHR system in the loft to ventilate/heat the bedrooms and bathrooms, but it's not possible to run ducting throughout the whole house, so downstairs has to be approached separately. The finish on the ground floor will be a micro-cement skim. Steve, I will contact you via your website, thank you.
