Underfloor Heating Walton-on-Thames

Underfloor Heating Walton-on-Thames Surrey (KT12): Underfloor heating is a cost effective and efficient method of warming up your home in Walton-on-Thames. It can be employed as a supplementary source of warmth coupled with radiators, or can be installed as a whole house heating system to completely replace radiators and other methods of heating. Electric or warm water are the 2 main forms of underfloor heating.

Both warm water and electric underfloor systems provide consistent and efficient heating from the floor up. They run at cooler temperatures than standard hot water radiators and consequently don't require so much energy. To heat a room effectively a conventional gas boiler and radiator setup will require water temperatures of between 65 and 75 degrees C, which is over two times that of the twenty five and thirty five degrees Celcius needed by an underfloor heating setup.

Consistent Heat: Cold spots can a problem with conventional hot water radiators, as the air next to the radiator's surface is heated up initially, before slowly spreading around the room by convection. Floor level heating mats or pipes warm the whole floor area in a consistent way with an underfloor heating system. This system's uniform and consistent heat distribution ensures that every corner of the room is enveloped in a comfortable and cosy warmth, effectively eliminating any discomfort caused by thermal imbalances.

Cheaper to Run: Underfloor systems are cheaper run because they use reduced amounts of energy for the same feeling of warmth of a traditional heating system, which also means they are more eco-friendly.

Simplicity of Use: Both electric and water underfloor heating systems are managed by a programmable digital thermostat. This can be pre-programmed in line with your situation at different times of day or year, giving you 24-hour control of your heating system.

Requires Little Maintenance: Being virtually maintenance-free and providing many years of reliable service an electrical underfloor system could be just the thing for heating your home in Walton-on-Thames. Unlike radiators, water underfloor heating shouldn't need flushing or bleeding and only requires occasional checks to ensure that it's working to its optimum efficiency. Water boilers or other heat sources will also have less thermal stress placed upon them, making them last longer and be more reliable.

Perfect For Any Room: Smaller rooms can appear larger by freeing up the 10% or so of wasted space around traditional radiators which can't really be used, through the installation of underfloor heating. Different systems of underfloor heating can be used in lounges, conservatories, bathrooms and kitchens in Walton-on-Thames, and can work successfully with almost any style of floor covering, from hard flooring to carpets. There are even options for exterior underfloor heating in a summer house, terrace or garage, to keep you warm whatever the season in Walton-on-Thames.

Healthier Air Quality: With gentle warmth rising up from the floor, an underfloor heating system produces what is called, radiant heat, which cuts down on convectional air currents around a room. This establishes a better and healthier environment by reducing the volume of pollen and dust particles which can circulate around a room.

Precisely how much work you are prepared to do on your property in Walton-on-Thames, can influence what sort of underfloor heating system is more suitable for you. Being quicker to install and design, electric underfloor heating systems could be the perfect solution for smaller projects in Walton-on-Thames. They can also be adapted easily for retrofitting to a pre-existing building in Walton-on-Thames. Wet underfloor systems, by their very design are often a better choice in new builds or during remodelling work where the floors are being re-laid.

It's a good solution for all projects and can easily be retrofitted into existing buildings. It's an excellent form of heating for spare rooms and attic conversions which don't need to be heated when they aren't being used.

In barely more than half an hour a series of electric heating mats can be laid. The heating mats come in rolls which will be laid out on the sub-floor or insulating material, and then simply have them connected to an appropriate electricity mains supply by a competent electrician. Different styles of underfloor heating mats are on the market for various floor coverings and your underfloor heating company in Walton-on-Thames will be delighted to advise on which type is best for your property.

If you've got a smaller or awkwardly shaped room where a standard mat is not suitable, loose, free-form wire can be used instead. This consists of laying a heating element (single cable) in runs onto an insulating pad onto your sub-floor before being covered over with the flooring finish of your choice. Once laid out the heating cable is linked up to a suitable electric point and a room based thermostat by an experienced electrician.

Electric underfloor heating can be installed as a whole house system that is managed from a main control unit, or can be fitted independently into specific rooms as freestanding devices.

Water underfloor heating systems, also known as hydronic or wet floor systems use hot water to effectively warm your home.

The floor thickness is increased as wet floor systems need to be installed into the subfloor screeding. Because of this, a lot of underfloor installer recommend water based systems more for new build homes in Walton-on-Thames, although for older properties there are slim pipe solutions which could be suitable. As a whole house heating technique, "wet" underfloor systems have become ever more popular over the last few years. People are switching over to these systems owing to their increased thermal effect, higher efficiency and lower running costs compared to traditional heating methods.

A hybrid solution utilises the most effective attributes of electric and water underfloor heating. Areas with greater heating energy requirements such as basements and ground floors will have a water based underfloor system, while upper level rooms, attics and lofts will use an electric solution.

If you are looking into the potential for fitting underfloor heating to any area of your home in Walton-on-Thames, it's vital to do a thermal heat loss survey. This survey will be carried out by an architect or experienced heating engineer who'll ascertain the insulation needs and heating requirements of your house. Internal living spaces will have different wattage needs than those of higher heat loss areas, such as an uninsulated room or conservatory. This crucial part of the design stage will ascertain the heating needs, dimensions and shape of the electric, water or hybrid underfloor heating system.

Insulating panels placed underneath the heating cables, pipes or heat mats might be needed to reduce any sub-floor heat losses. This insulation has the benefit of decreasing heat-up times and increasing efficiency by "pushing" the heat up into your room, rather than it being absorbed by the floor below.

Despite the fact that an NICEIC/Part P qualified electrician will be essential to carry out any electrical connections, it's quite possible for a proficient DIY person to do a lot of the installation on underfloor heating. A competent installation service provides complete reassurance in relation to safety, and it's recommended to use a certified installer in Walton-on-Thames for the extra guarantees and safety that this brings to your new heating system.

Either form of underfloor heating can save you some money on regular heating solutions, and provide consistent heating which is easily monitored and controlled.

If you're considering updating your existing heating system, or just wish to warm a cold area in your home, underfloor heating is an ideal option.
