Comprised of thin electric cables or mats that are installed beneath your floor covering (like tiles or laminate).
When you turn it on, electricity flows through these cables, heating them up.
The heat is then transferred to the floor surface, warming it.
The warm floor radiates heat into the room.
Ease of Installation: Electric underfloor heating is simpler and quicker to install, making it ideal for retrofits and smaller projects. It can be installed directly beneath the flooring, often without the need for significant changes to the floor height.
Smaller Areas: It's cost-effective for heating small areas, such as bathrooms or individual rooms, where extensive plumbing work for water-based systems might not be justified.
Renovations: If you’re renovating a room and only need to heat that specific area, electric systems are less invasive and do not require additional piping.
Lower Initial Costs: Electric systems generally have lower upfront costs compared to water-based systems, which involve more complex installation and higher material costs.
Quicker Response Time: Electric underfloor heating heats up quickly, providing faster comfort in intermittent-use areas like bathrooms or guest rooms.
