Recent Underfloor Heating Installation
Underfloor Heating Project Overview
This 190 square metre underfloor heating installation was completed in partnership with R G Evans Plumbing and Heating, our specialist install division for new builds within the Evans Group. Heated Floors and R G Evans worked together on the full specification and design to ensure the system delivered efficient and consistent heating performance.
All materials were supplied by Heated Floors, while the labour and installation were carried out by R G Evans Plumbing and Heating. The project was brought to us by Ilic Plumbing, who appointed our team to deliver a complete XPS solid overlay underfloor heating system.
The installation included full pipework and two manifolds, carefully designed for optimal heat distribution throughout the property.
Project Details
The XPS solid overlay system is ideal for properties where floor height is restricted. It provides an energy-efficient and low-profile heating solution that integrates neatly into existing spaces.
For this 190 sqm project, Heated Floors supplied all the required materials, including pipework, manifolds, and accessories. Our design team worked closely with R G Evans to ensure the system layout achieved maximum efficiency and comfort.
This type of system offers quick heat response and even distribution throughout the floor area. It’s also suitable for a wide range of flooring finishes, making it an excellent option for both new builds and renovation projects.
About the XPS Overlay System
The XPS overlay underfloor heating system is a popular choice for water-based installations, particularly in retrofit and renovation projects. It can be installed directly over existing subfloors and offers minimal floor build-up.
Because it transfers heat efficiently, it ensures a comfortable temperature in every room while helping to reduce energy consumption. It also removes the need for bulky radiators, freeing up wall space and giving a clean, modern look to interiors.
Benefits and Key Considerations of Underfloor Heating
Choosing an underfloor heating system offers several practical benefits for homeowners and businesses. Beyond comfort, it provides an efficient, modern way to heat a property with long-term energy savings.
Even Heat Distribution
Unlike traditional radiators that create hot and cold spots, underfloor heating spreads warmth evenly across the entire floor area. This results in a comfortable and consistent temperature throughout every room.
Energy Efficiency
Because the system runs at lower water temperatures, it uses less energy while still maintaining the desired warmth. Over time, this can reduce energy bills and help lower carbon emissions.
Design Flexibility
Underfloor heating removes the need for bulky radiators, freeing up wall space and allowing more creative interior layouts. It’s particularly useful for open-plan living areas and contemporary designs.
Low Maintenance
Once installed and correctly commissioned, water-based underfloor heating systems require very little maintenance. They’re built for reliability and long-term performance.
UFH Design & Installation Considerations
Before installation, it’s important to ensure your chosen system matches the property’s floor construction, insulation level, and heat source. That’s why professional system design and specification are key to achieving the best results.
