How to Choose the Right System for Wood Floor Finishes
Your Room Size:
Depending on the size of the project, this may effect your decision on which type of underfloor heating system you choose to install.
If you are planning to install a system in a large area such as an open plan layout, a water underfloor heating system would be highly recommended. Water systems are perfect to use with wood floor finishes, and can be ideal for conservatories, large kitchen and dining areas, living rooms and even upstairs. Water underfloor heating solutions do typically require a bigger floor buildup which may effect the height of your floor, which is an important factor to consider when planning the system.
For smaller projects such as a kitchen, underfloor heating foil mats are often the perfect choice. They are extremely quick and easy to install, and offer a fast warm up time. Foil mat systems are also a great choice as they are thin and won't add extra height to the floor.
Your Budget:
An electric underfloor heating foil mat system offers a much lower upfront cost which are also quick and easy to install. This makes them ideal for smaller rooms and renovations, however the cost of running a foil mat system is more expensive over time. If you have solar panels installed, the cost to run an electric underfloor heating system will be significantly lower.
Water underfloor heating systems generally have a much higher installation cost, but you will see the long term running costs are considerably lower and tend to be much more efficient. When combined with a heat pump, water underfloor heating systems can cost next to nothing to run which is why these systems are becoming the standard in modern new build homes.
