FAQs

Is electric underfloor heating expensive to run?

Electric underfloor heating running costs depend on several factors including room size, insulation levels, usage patterns, and electricity tariffs. While electricity is generally more expensive per unit than gas, electric underfloor heating is very efficient as it heats directly and can be precisely controlled with programmable thermostats. The system's quick response time means you can heat rooms only when needed, and the even heat distribution can make rooms feel warmer at lower temperatures. We can provide guidance on optimising your system for efficiency during installation.

Can electric underfloor heating go under any floor covering?

Electric underfloor heating works well under most floor coverings, though some are more suitable than others. Tile, stone, and engineered wood floors provide excellent heat transfer and are ideal choices. Carpet can be used but should have low tog ratings and suitable underlay. Solid wood floors may require specific installation techniques due to movement with temperature changes. We'll advise on the best floor covering options for your electric underfloor heating system and any specific requirements during the planning stage.

Do I need to upgrade my electrical supply for electric underfloor heating?

The need for electrical supply upgrades depends on your current electrical capacity and the size of the underfloor heating system. Small bathroom installations typically don't require upgrades, but larger systems may need additional circuits or consumer unit modifications. We'll assess your electrical supply during our site survey and advise on any necessary upgrades. Most domestic properties can accommodate electric underfloor heating with minor electrical work, and we can coordinate any electrical upgrades required for your installation.

How quickly can electric underfloor heating be installed?

Electric underfloor heating installation is typically much quicker than wet systems. A standard bathroom installation can often be completed in one day, while larger areas may take 2-3 days depending on the preparation work required. The system can usually be tested and commissioned immediately after installation, with final floor coverings able to be fitted shortly after. Unlike wet systems, there's no waiting time for screeds to cure, making electric underfloor heating ideal for renovation projects where quick completion is important.
