Electric vs. Hydronic Underfloor Heating Systems
When it comes to underfloor heating, there are two main types of systems: electric underfloor heating and hydronic underfloor heating.
Electric Underfloor Heating: Ideal for Targeted Warmth
Electric underfloor heating systems are perfect for single rooms or smaller areas, offering fast heat-up times and easy DIY installation options. These systems use electric heating mats or heating cables installed beneath your flooring, providing targeted warmth exactly where you need it.
As electric underfloor heating specialists, we offer a range of high-quality heating products for an easy and quick install, ensuring warm floors and a cosy atmosphere in your living spaces, bathrooms, or bedrooms.
Hydronic Underfloor Heating: Efficient Whole-Home Heating
For larger spaces or whole-home heating, hydronic underfloor heating is the ideal choice. This system circulates heated water through a network of pipes, providing consistent and efficient heating throughout your entire home. Hydronic systems can be paired with eco-friendly heat sources like solar or heat pumps, making them a sustainable and cost-effective option for heating your home.
As a leading supplier and installer of electric and hydronic underfloor heating, Calibre Connect offers tailored solutions to suit your specific requirements.
Types of Underfloor Heating Systems
We offer a variety of underfloor heating options to suit different needs and floor types. Here’s an overview of the main types we install:
In Screed Heating
In screed heating is a popular floor heating system that involves embedding heating elements within a layer of screed above the subfloor. This method provides excellent heat distribution and is highly energy efficient. The screed acts as a thermal mass, retaining heat and releasing it slowly for consistent warmth. In screed heating installation is ideal for new constructions or major renovations where a new screed layer is being applied.
Thermogroup Underfloor Heating
Thermogroup underfloor heating installation is perfect for those looking for versatile system. These systems can be adapted to various floor types and offer precise temperature control. The heating elements are thin and flexible, making them suitable for both new builds and retrofits. Thermogroup systems are known for their reliability and even heat distribution, ensuring comfort in any room.
Timber & Carpet Underfloor Heating
Specially designed for use with timber and carpet flooring, this type of electric floor heating system provides gentle, consistent warmth without risking damage to sensitive floor coverings. The heating elements are installed beneath the flooring material, creating a cozy atmosphere while preserving the natural beauty of timber or the comfort of carpet. Timber and carpet underfloor heating installation is ideal for bedrooms, living areas, and other spaces where soft flooring is preferred.
Under Tile Heating
Under tile heating installation is a popular choice for bathrooms, kitchens, and other tiled areas. This system involves installing a thin heating mat or cable directly beneath the tile adhesive. It provides rapid warm-up times and creates luxuriously warm tiles underfoot. The heated floor not only enhances comfort but also helps to dry wet areas quickly, reducing slip hazards and improving hygiene.
By offering these diverse types of underfloor heating, Calibre Connect ensures that we can provide the perfect floor heating solution for every home, regardless of construction type or flooring material. Our expert team will guide you in selecting the most appropriate system for your specific needs, ensuring optimal performance and comfort.
In-slab underfloor heating
In slab underfloor heating installation involves installing heating elements directly into the concrete foundation. While it provides even, efficient warmth, it has a slow response time and is best suited for new constructions. Retrofitting existing buildings can be costly and disruptive, making it less practical for some applications.
