Electric Underfloor Heating
Discover the benefits of Electric Underfloor Heating Systems to you and your
family.
The human body feels comfortable when the heat being generated within, is
lost at a rate that enables our body to maintain it’s normal temperature of
around 37°C.
If our environment causes our rate of heat loss to become too high, then of
course we feel cold.
There is a strong physiological link between foot comfort and body comfort in
general, and because of our immediate association between coldness and foot
discomfort, any underfloor heating system which applies warmth to this end of our body is
felt to be of particular benefit. If our feet are warm, we feel warm at a lower
air temperature.
There is also an upper limit for ideal foot comfort temperature, of around
27°C at the floor surface.
With Underfloor Heating the electric heating elements are embedded within the floor
and warmth is
distributed wall to wall. It is ideal for children since there are no hot
surfaces.
Floor surfaces that are normally cold to touch, such as ceramic, marble,
slate, become a pleasant source of warmth with floor heating.
The temperature control of electric floor heating is generally superior to
other forms of heating. Separate thermostat controls to each room or zone allow
for independent control to the heating capacities which are tailored to the
needs of each area.
