Underfloor Heating Aldridge

Underfloor Heating Aldridge West Midlands (WS9): Your home in Aldridge can be heated cost effectively and efficiently through the use of an underfloor heating system. You can use underfloor heating to completely replace conventional heating methods, like radiators, or use it to complement existing heating to minimise cold spots around your property. There are actually 2 main forms of underfloor heating, namely water based systems and electrically powered systems.

Both warm water and electric underfloor systems provide consistent and efficient heating from floor to ceiling. These underfloor systems do not operate at the high temperatures that are a feature of traditional forms of heating, like radiators, and as a result use less energy. In typical situations a correctly designed and sized underfloor heating system operates at about 25 to 35 degrees Celcius, where a centrally heated radiator requires a working temperature of between 65 and 75 degrees C to warm a similarly sized room.

Uniform & Consistent Heat: A conventional radiator first warms the air next to the radiator's surface, which then rises before dispersing gradually around the whole room which can easily create cold areas. The floor level heating pipes or mats of an underfloor heating system uniformly and consistently heat the air over the entire floor area which then radiates upwards throughout the room.

Cheaper Running Costs: They operate at lower temperatures to offer you the equivalent thermal benefits of a conventional system, and thus are cheaper to run and more environmentally friendly.

Ease of Use: You can have control of heating close at hand in both warm water and electric underfloor systems with a dedicated digital thermostat which on most systems can be linked with your smartphone. It can be pre-programmed to suit your circumstances at different times of day or year, giving you 24-hour control of your heating system.

Lower Maintenance Requirements: With several years of trouble free service which requires virtually no maintenance, electric underfloor systems are a reliable kind of heating your home in Aldridge. To keep warm water underfloor heating working efficiently only occasional inspections are needed, in contrast to a radiator heated system which frequently need to be flushed and bled. Hot water boilers or other heat sources will also have less load placed upon them, making them more reliable and longer lasting.

Ideal For Any Room: Smaller rooms can appear larger by freeing up the ten percent or so of dead space around traditional hot water radiators which cannot be used, by installing underfloor heating. Different underfloor heating techniques can be employed in conservatories, living areas, bathrooms and kitchens in Aldridge, and can combine with just about any style of floor covering, from concrete to carpeting. You can even plump for fully waterproof exterior underfloor heating for your summer house, garage or patio in Aldridge.

Better Air Quality: The radiant heat that warms up your room as a result of underfloor heating produces less airflow via the air currents than regular hot water radiators. A better and healthier environment is established as the movement of pollen and dust particles in the air is reduced.

The kind of underfloor heating system that is better for your circumstances will depend on exactly how much work you want to undertake. With their simpler design and ease of installation, electric underfloor systems may be the most effective for small projects in Aldridge. It's also a simple alternative for retrofitting into a pre-existing building in Aldridge. If your project is part of a major renovation or is a new build, water underfloor heating systems will be more suitable, especially if you're going to be laying a new sub-floor.

Electric underfloor heating in Aldridge is easy and quick to put in, needing only a link-up to a suitable electricity mains supply and a digital thermostat. Existing houses can undergo the retrofitting of electric underfloor systems into individual rooms with very few problems at all. It can often be an excellent option for a spare room or attic conversion which isn't used all the time.

In a time span of just half an hour a series of electric heating mats can be installed. Just roll out and adhere the heating mat to the insulating surface or sub-floor, have it linked up to the power supply by a competent electrician, and it's all set to go. Your underfloor heating specialist in Aldridge will be delighted to offer advice about which heating mats are most appropriate for your specific flooring surface.

If you want to heat a small room, or perhaps an oddly shaped area where a standard mat is not so easy to cut, free form heating wire can be employed for the same effect. This calls for arranging a heating element (single cable) in "runs" onto an insulation material on your sub-floor before being covered by the flooring finish of your choice. Once installed the cable is linked up to an appropriate electric spur and a room based thermostat by a competent electrician.

Electric underfloor heating can be standalone units in each room, or can be absorbed into a whole house system with control from a single point. Electric underfloor heating systems can easily be built into smart homes in Aldridge to offer wireless remote control of thermostat temperatures and metering.

Hot water is employed in this type of underfloor heating system, which can also be called hydronic or wet floor systems by various makers. You can use an existing central heating boiler with these heating systems, or in newer builds they can be linked up to ground or air source heat pumps.

The floor thickness is significantly increased as water based systems need to be installed into the screed layer of the subfloor. In new build homes in Aldridge, this extra height can be allowed for in the design stage, but for older buildings there are slimmer pipe alternatives which keep the extra thickness requirement to the bare minimum. In recent times these water systems are becoming increasingly popular as a technique for "whole home" heating in Aldridge. People are switching over to these underfloor systems due to their increased thermal effect, higher efficiency and lower running costs in comparison with traditional heating methods.

A mixture of electric and water underfloor heating techniques can be employed to create a hybrid heating setup. Warm water systems are used on cellars and ground floors which have higher heating requirements, while upstairs rooms and loft conversions use electric underfloor heating. The heating needs of more or less any home in Aldridge can be satisfied by means of a hybrid underfloor heating system.

If you are thinking about fitting underfloor heating to any part of your home in Aldridge, it is essential to do a heat loss survey. The survey will be completed by an architect or qualified heating engineer who will determine the heating requirements and insulation needs of your house. Areas that are notorious for heat loss, such as conservatories, will have greater wattage requirements than that of internal living areas. The design of your underfloor heating system, water, electric or hybrid, will depend on this on-site survey which confirms the size, heating needs and layout of the overall installation.

To minimise heat loss in to the sub-floor it will often be necessary to place insulating boards underneath any pipework or heat mats. Using this insulation material increases the efficiency of the system by bringing down the warm-up or heating time by "pushing" the heat upwards into the room.

Despite the fact that an NICEIC/Part P certified electrician will be needed to carry out any electrical hook-ups, it's quite possible for a capable do-it-yourselfer to do almost all of the installation on an underfloor heating system. It is preferable to use a professional installation company in Aldridge for all of your underfloor heating needs, who'll adhere to all of the applicable Health & Safety procedures and offer guarantees and warranties for their work and equipment. You should also factor into your plans the quality of aftercare, servicing and any warranty that come with your brand new underfloor heating setup.

Electric underfloor heating systems are especially suited to existing property upgrades, extensions and attic conversions on account of the easier installation process, and the fact that no connections to a hot water system are necessary. Wet floor underfloor heating systems are better for major renovation works or new developments where the additional flooring height can be factored in at the design stage.

Underfloor heating systems have less running costs, are more efficient, are easily controlled by means of digital thermostats and are more reliable than regular heating solutions.

Underfloor heating systems are an excellent way to warm up your whole home, or can just as readily be installed into a single room, loft conversion or property extension.
