FAQs

How thin can low profile underfloor heating be?

Low profile underfloor heating systems can be as thin as 15mm total height build-up, making them ideal for renovations where ceiling height is critical. Ultra-slim systems use smaller diameter pipes and specially designed panels to achieve minimal thickness whilst maintaining excellent heat output. The exact thickness depends on the specific system chosen and your heating requirements, which we assess during our site survey.

Do low profile systems provide enough heat for whole house heating?

Yes, modern low profile systems can provide sufficient heat output for whole house heating, particularly in well-insulated properties. High-output low profile systems can deliver up to 120W/m², which is adequate for most residential applications. The key is proper system design based on accurate heat loss calculations, which we provide as part of our service. In poorly insulated properties, additional measures may be needed alongside the underfloor heating.

How quickly can low profile systems be installed?

Low profile systems are designed for quick installation with minimal disruption. Many systems can be installed and ready for floor coverings within 24-72 hours, as they use fast-setting compounds or completely dry installations. This makes them ideal for renovation projects where time is crucial. The exact timeline depends on the system chosen and room size, which we'll confirm during our consultation.

Will low profile heating affect door clearances?

Low profile systems are specifically designed to minimise impact on door clearances, with the thinnest systems adding only 15-22mm to floor height. In most cases, this can be accommodated without door modifications, though we assess each situation individually. Where necessary, we can advise on door trimming or threshold adjustments. Our site survey includes checking all door clearances to ensure the chosen system won't cause problems.
