RUNNING COSTS AND ENERGY EFFICIENCY
Our underfloor heating systems exhibit energy-efficient characteristics, with an average energy consumption of approximately 20 watts per square meter per hour throughout the heating season. The precise calculation is challenging to determine with absolute certainty due to the multitude of variables that influence it. These variables encompass factors like the building's inherent attributes, thermal insulation, susceptibility to wind exposure, window types, and more.
Existing base
Before works begin, a clear base of cement screed must be prepared. Should cleaning be necessary, this may be also provided with additional costs.
Insulation boards
Effective insulation plays a crucial role in optimizing the energy efficiency of underfloor heating systems. Our underfloor heating systems are specifically engineered to be used in conjunction with insulation boards, which not only minimize heat loss but also enhance the responsiveness of the system.
Electric heating tapes
1mm heating tapes are custom placed according to room shape and zoning. Covering around 80% of the area, electric heating required less energy input to heat an entire room.
Custom flooring finish
The heating tapes are secured and the base is set for the laying of tiles by applying a layer of fibre mesh followed by self-levelling concrete.

Electric underfloor heating is compatible with almost all flooring types, allowing the user to freely choose whichever floor finishes desired.

INSTALLATION & BUILD-UP
LOW VOLTAGE, LOW RUNNING COSTS
Our systems utilize advanced aluminum alloy heating elements that cover between 50% to 80% of your floor space, strategically positioned just 10cm apart. This design minimizes energy consumption by efficiently distributing heat across the entire floor surface, leaving no wasteful gaps. Furthermore, this setup concentrates the heating precisely where it's needed, avoiding areas obstructed by permanent furniture and appliances.
Choose a Thermostat That Works with Your House
We offer a range of thermostats tailored to suit diverse needs for our electric underfloor heating installations, selected based on factors such as electrical load, area coverage, and budgetary considerations. Should clients express interest in integrating their heating systems with smart home technology, we are capable of implementing such connectivity, contingent upon the compatibility and requirements of their specific smart home system. Our aim is to provide professional and customizable solutions that cater to the unique preferences and circumstances of each client.
Underfloor Heating Insulation
Underfloor insulation plays a pivotal role in minimizing heat loss and significantly enhancing the speed at which the floor heating system warms up. Additionally, insulation solutions offer additional benefits such as soundproofing capabilities.
Marmox Insulation Boards 6mm/ 10mm
XPS Insulation Boards 20mm/ 30mm
Compatible with underfloor heating systems, XPS boards have a higher thermal conductivity due to the added thickness, enabling efficient heat transfer. XPS is also effective in reducing airborne and impact noise transmission, creating quieter and a more comfortable indoor environment. Such an option is ideal when floor to ceiling heights are not limited.
By laying the Marmox Insulation Board between the concrete slab and the heating system, you ensure energy is directed upwards instead of being dispersed throughout the concrete slab. Such an option is ideal when ceiling height is limited or when a more rigid base is required.
When used with a quality thermostat, Marmox Insulation Board makes heating more efficient – you’ll notice the difference in your power bill, with proven savings of up to 50%.
