Under floor heating demystified!
While on different sites, we get a lot of queries about Under Floor Heating from our customers. So, here are few pro and cons of using the UFH system over the radiator one.
The technology behind
Under floor heating technology works in a more energy efficient way, providing heating solution in a gentler form as compared to the traditional heating techniques. Radiators used for heating purposes need to be heated to a high temperatures in order to provide effective heating, whereas the UFH system does the same in much lesser heat.
It provides even heating throughout the floor space, maintaining an even temperature across the home. Unlike the UFH, the radiator heater produce cold spots in the middle of the room and very high temperature closer to it. This not only makes UFH simpler to use but also saves up on a lot of electricity saving you money!
Low on maintenance
The traditional heaters are high on maintenance and need frequent servicing. Plus, these radiators are dependent on a lot of external fixtures. Whereas UFH system is almost maintenance free and doesn’t need regular upkeeps. To add to the advantages, all UFH systems come with decent system and service warranty.
