Underfloor heating (UFH) can provide users with lower annual utility bills and increased comfort. While these facts are common knowledge, read on to unearth other intriguing information on this innovative solution.
UFH improves air quality
Conventional central heating promotes a poor atmosphere in homes. Radiators and pipework can be complex in design and difficult to clean. As a result, they are notorious for becoming clogged with dust. To exacerbate this issue, radiators use convection heat which drives this dust into the air.
In contrast, UFH has no exposed equipment that can become soiled and uses radiant heat. It has been proven to distribute less dust into the air in carpeted rooms than radiator-based systems. Unlike radiators, which require high heats to operate, UFH is low flow which means that rooms won’t become stuffy.
UFH is sometimes installed outside
While associated with creating cosy living spaces, UFH can also be deployed outdoors. From keeping paths and roofs clear from snow and ice in winter to elevating exterior experiences with heated patios, outside UFH has plenty to offer.
UFH increases property value
Estate agents agree that adding luxury to a home is one of the best ways to boost its asking price. UFH is now accepted as a standard requirement of a luxe living space, so adding an underfloor heating system to your home can be a sound investment should you choose to sell in the future.
