Renovating your home is an excellent opportunity to incorporate modern, efficient upgrades, and underfloor heating (UFH) should be at the top of your list. Here’s what you need to know to make the most of this addition and why JCW Underfloor Heating is your ideal partner in the process.
1. Plan Early in the Renovation Process
Including underfloor heating in the initial stages of planning ensures a seamless integration into your renovation. Don’t wait until the last minute—contact JCW Underfloor Heating now for expert advice and to streamline your planning.
2. Evaluate Your Flooring Type
Different flooring materials have varying heat conductivity. Tiles and stone provide the best results, while wood and laminate require tailored solutions. JCW Underfloor Heating offers a range of systems suited for any type of flooring, ensuring maximum comfort and efficiency. Explore our selection to find the perfect match for your renovation.
3. Choose Between Wet (Hydronic) and Electric Systems
Your choice between a hydronic (water-based) or electric system depends on your budget, space, and heating needs. Hydronic systems offer long-term energy efficiency for larger areas, while electric systems are perfect for smaller projects. Let JCW Underfloor Heating help you decide which system is best suited for your home with a tailored consultation.
4. Check Floor Height Implications
UFH systems can raise your floor height, so adjustments to doors, skirting boards, and cabinets may be necessary. JCW’s low-profile electric heating mats are designed to minimise added height while delivering exceptional warmth. Browse our product range for solutions that fit your space without compromise.
5. Consider Insulation for Optimal Efficiency
Insulation beneath your UFH system is key to maximising energy efficiency and heat output. JCW Underfloor Heating can supply high-quality insulation materials to complement your system, helping you get the most out of your investment. Reach out to us for more details on our insulation options.
