Hep2o Underfloor heating systems: a complete guide
With the Future Homes initiative there is lots of change in terms of how homes will be heated in the UK from 2025.
In the last four to six months in particular, we’ve seen a big drive towards installing air source heat pumps from housing developers as they make changes to reflect these new government targets.
The Future Homes Standard means that new developments can’t use fossil fuels to heat new properties. While some developers are looking at continuing to work with radiators, there are some concerns that this isn’t the most effective or energy efficient method. In fact, we believe a fantastic alternative heating system which works incredibly well in conjunction with heat pumps is underfloor heating.
In this blog, we’ll be putting this particular heating solution under the spotlight to explain why it is an incredible heating method for both new developments and existing properties in comparison to radiators.
Before we begin, let’s first take a look at the history of underfloor heating systems.
Underfloor heating explained
Underfloor heating was originally introduced to the UK in 1970s and was classed as a modern technique to heat homes and other buildings.
With an underfloor heating system, the floor is gently heated by piped warm water and the heat energy is emitted from the floor by natural radiation.
Throughout the years the system has continued to evolve and is now seen as an effective and energy efficient alternative to traditional radiators.
