Water based underfloor heating systems are generally used for new build houses, extensions and also large conservatories, water systems normally work out cheaper than electric in these types of installations, the main reason for this is that they can be incorperated into the floor structure at no extra build cost, building regulations require most new floors to be insulated with at least 50mm of insulation, foil backed insulations are the most common type used, these foil backed boards can have our water system installed directly on top of them. Once the system has been fully installed and tested it would then have a minimum of 50mm of screed installed on top, this incases the pipes in the screed and acts like a big heat store when in operation, if you are planning to install underfloor heating in a large project then please click here
For all other types of installation including new bathrooms, kitchens, small conservatories and any other project that requires a minimum amount of floor height increase then electric systems are the most suitable, our loose cable system only increases the floor height by 3mm, if this is more suited to the project you are doing then please look at our range of electric systems below.
Loose Cable kits are good for installations into small bathrooms or small kitchen area’s with awkward fixed objects to work around such as curved shower trays, toilets, kitchen units, kitchen islands.
The cable kit comes as one long continues roll of heating wire on a drum and you have to space the cable out evenly over the floor, this offers the installer freedom to space the cable evenly no matter how awkward the room shape, the spacing of the cables determines the heat output ie
6cm spacing between cable loops = 165w/m2.
6.5cm spacing between cable loops = 150w/m2.
7.5cm spacing between cable loops = 130w/m2
Our loose cable system is suitable for many different types of floor covering including Tiles, Carpet and Vinyl floors, when installing this system for carpet and vinyl floors it is neccesary to cover the cables with a layer of latex levelling compound, we always advise checking compatibility with the floor covering manufacturer before installation.
Cable mat kits are our most used systems, the mat system use’s exactly the same cable as the loose system except the cable spacing has already been done for you, and therefore all you need to do is roll the mat out all over the floor until it’s used up, the cable can be removed from the mat to shape into any akward spaces. This system is ideal for kitchens, lounges, dining rooms and most other areas. This comes in 3 different power outputs, 100w-150w-200w. 200w mats are normally used in conservatories and and poor insulated areas, we do not advise using 200w system on wooden subfloors.

Our under wood heating is designed for use directly below laminate, engineered wood & most hardwood ‘floating’ floors. In most cases it can be used as a primary room heating source, it is also suitable for use in bathrooms. This easy to install revolutionary new wood heating means you no longer have to get an expensive bespoke carbon film system. Our under wood heating system must alawys be used in conjunction with our blueboard insulation boards
A higher wattage, heavy-duty cable system that is designed to be installed within the concrete screed of a new building or extension. A very cost-effective solution for new home constructions. This system is suitable for almost any floor covering always check with the manufacturer that it is compatible
