Infrared Underfloor Heating

Infrared Underfloor Heating

Our infrared underfloor heating solutions will give you an all-round unobtrusive, energy efficient option with a much more comfortable type of heating you would ever have had before.

The principles of enjoying infrared radiant heat and low temperatures to warm a floor surface and room in which the infrared underfloor heating system is fitted, produce a very comfortable and efficient heat over a given area, utilising a very low temperature to achieve your desired room temperature.

The heat from the heated floor surface takes advantage of natural radiation which creates a much more uniform warmth across an area than can be achieved by other methods of heating. It works by producing infrared radiation that travels through the floor straight to the objects in the room. In other words, it warms the objects directly instead of wasting energy on warming up the air.

Existing systems.....

A traditional radiator heating system relies solely on convection (the transfer of heat using the room's air) resulting in a heat which is uneven and inefficient therefore more heat is needed to achieve the desired temperature.

Also, these conventional radiators take up wall space, usually restricting where furniture can be located and more than not they are placed directly beneath windows - where approximately 80% of heat is known to be lost through the glass and window structure.

Conventional Heating


Convectional Heating

Convection heating uses an abundance of inefficient heat that causes the constantly circulating rising and falling air that ultimately causes drafts - very uncomfortable for people trying to get warm within the room with the addition of circulating dust and bacteria.

This is in contrast to infrared underfloor heating solution as the heat raises directly from the heater wall location so your feet are cold.

Infrared Underfloor Heating

Infrared under floor heating runs at much lower temperatures than radiators due to the fact that its heating source is released from a much greater floor area (i.e. the whole floor area).

Because of this, it is much more comfortable, your feet are warm and your upper body is warmed at a comfortable temperature rate and very importantly at a much reduced energy consumption rate.

Infrared Heating Health Benefits

In addition to the effectiveness and inherent economic advantage of underfloor heating, its installation promotes a healthier environment too.

As warmth that is emitted from the floor upwards means a reduction in the circulation of dust that is prevalent in the warm air flow of the traditional convected heat flows from radiators or similar wall mounted heating.

Moreover, an under-floor heating system set to 19°C would provide the same warmth as a radiator set to 21°C – 22°C - so it also reduces heating costs.

Advantages of Infrared Underfloor Heating Systems

Studies have shown that infrared underfloor heating creates a much more efficiently heated, dust free and healthier environment than any other conventional means along with the following overwhelming benefits:

  • Saves up to 50% on energy costs and is cheaper to run than any other conventional radiator systems - as well as being modular - only switch on what you need!
  • It is very easy to install and is totally maintenance free with no moving parts - therefore has no noise or vibrations.
  • When installing an underfloor heating system into a new build property, underfloor heating is much cheaper to buy and install than a radiator system, and around 30-40% cheaper than an equivalent water based underfloor heating system.
  • Space saving (about 15% more usable space in the room).
  • Comfort at lower running temperatures.
  • Underfloor heating helps to reduce house dust mites and is beneficial for health conditions such as asthma or bronchial ailments, plus it improves blood circulation, metabolism and immune system.
  • Thanks to the low thickness and under tile installation, it is very quick to heat up.
  • Prevents mould growth.
  • Much safer than traditional radiators or other means of heating for children, elderly people and pets.

Our infrared underfloor heating has a unique technology which ensures optimum heat distribution unlike the usual round heating cable systems. Thanks to its flat shape which provides a very large heat exchange surface, as well as the short distance between heating elements, the infrared elements supplies much improved uniform, comfortable underfloor heating.

Efficiency came about after in-depth studies which revealed that the use of laminated resistive components were the key to achieving better performance through the Joule effect, which causes electric materials to generate and give off heat. In this way the system distributes its heat energy in a more uniform manner and also requires less power, allowing you to save on your electricity bills.
