How long has underfloor heating been in use?

Underfloor heating systems date back over 7,000 years. Excavations in modern-day North Korea have uncovered heating systems under the floor at settlements from that era. Ancient civilizations, including the Chinese, Greeks, and Romans, further developed these systems to heat homes and public buildings.

What are the advantages of underfloor heating over traditional radiators?

Underfloor heating systems distribute heat evenly, eliminating cold spots in rooms. They are compatible with most flooring types, including slate, tile, wood, vinyl, and carpets. Additionally, underfloor heating is more hygienic, as it avoids the dust accumulation common with radiators, and allows for more aesthetically pleasing and spacious room designs.

Is underfloor heating compatible with heat pump technology?

Yes, underfloor heating works well with heat pump technology. Research has shown that underfloor heating systems can have lower running costs than traditional central heating systems when paired with heat pumps. The robust pipes require minimal maintenance, and modern control systems make it easy to manage temperatures in individual rooms.
