Lloyd Fleming has been a Nu-Heat registered installer for a year and readily promotes underfloor heating to customers. With a number of projects under his belt, Lloyd explains why he recommends Nu-Heat.

“Nu-Heat systems can be easily integrated with many different heat sources from solar panels to heat pumps as well as traditional boilers. They can also be used to heat part of a property in conjunction with radiators. Nu-Heat’s versatility will suit almost any project I am involved with.” Lloyd puts his continued relationship with Nu-Heat down to two things – the relationship he has with the sales team and his confidence in the products supplied.

Asked why he promotes underfloor heating, Lloyd replied, “It’s simple really – people are becoming savvier when it comes to interior design. There are countless programmes on TV promoting things such as the clever use of colour to make rooms look bigger, as well as how to make the best use of space. People are starting to take note, with more and more asking about underfloor heating. It’s important the heating and plumbing industry offer an alternative to radiators – underfloor heating releases much needed wall space and most radiators are considered an eyesore. Because it is tucked out of the way under the floor, homeowners are able to arrange furniture where they like, without big bulky metal obstructions.”

“Instead of heat being generated from a small surface area at high temperatures, I am able to offer a large surface area running at lower temperatures. My customers appreciate the economical advantages of this and look forward to cheaper fuel bills.”

Asked if Lloyd has experienced any issues as a Nu-Heat registered installer, he commented, “The only problem is getting customers to believe that underfloor heating is a better way to heat the home. Some of my clients think there is a catch involved and that it won’t do what’s promised. In these instances I refer customers to Nu-Heat’s website and tell them about the extensive warranty offered by Nu-Heat. This usually puts their minds at rest and they are happy to go ahead.”

Questioned why Nu-Heat is his chosen underfloor heating company, Lloyd said, “I pride myself on providing customers with a quality service. For years I have sourced the best products at competitive prices, any new product or service I offer has to meet the same strict criteria.”

“I need to know that when I install customers’ underfloor heating, the chosen company is able to offer advice and after sales care. Nu-Heat is able to do this, which is why I had no qualms choosing them as my preferred supplier.”

“Nu-Heat also offers a slightly different product to their competitors – 10mm Fastflo® tubing. I find this product a lot easier to use as it is more flexible.”

“I was offered training by Nu-Heat; this made me feel that they actually wanted to make sure I installed their systems properly. With every project you receive comprehensive technical manuals, offering a step-by-step guide. Honestly, it’s text book stuff, you just can’t go wrong.”

The initial cost to install underfloor heating may be more expensive, but Lloyd states that the benefits to the customer far outweigh initial financial outlays.

“I know other people in the trade that are wary of using underfloor heating, but I believe I am using the best underfloor heating company in the UK, so have no worries at all.”
