Underfloor heating from Nu-Heat. The UK's largest supplier of warm water underfloor heating systems

Warm water underfloor heating is a highly effective and efficient method of heating. It's suitable for a wide range of projects, whether a new build, renovation or single area.

The benefits of underfloor heating (UFH)

Warm water UFH (also known as ‘wet underfloor heating’) is unlike any other heating system.

• Highly efficient
  Warm water UFH uses far lower flow temperatures than a traditional radiator system. Because it covers a much larger surface area it is still able to heat the room effectively. For this reason, underfloor heating is around 25% more efficient than a radiator system.
• Perfectly suited to open plan living
  UFH is an ‘invisible’ heating system as the tube is hidden beneath the floor. This frees up wall space, ideal for open plan living and rooms such as kitchens where space is at a premium.
• Safe
  UFH has no exposed hot or sharp edges – a safe option for young children and the elderly. It’s great for allergy sufferers as it provides warmth free from draughts and dust movement that can aggravate conditions.
• Luxuriously comfortable
  With UFH, the heat gently emits upwards from the floor. This gives the luxurious feel of warm feet and a cool head without any cold spots common with radiators. UFH also warms any usually cold floor coverings, such as tiles or engineered wood.

Choosing the right underfloor heating system

Warm water UFH is suitable for virtually all properties and can be paired with a wide range of floor coverings. We’ve listed a few of our most popular solutions by project type:

For a new build
UFH is cost-effective and simple to install as part of a new build project, fitting neatly into the build schedule. Screed UFH is the most common system choice in this scenario. The heating tube is clipped through a polythene slip layer into standard insulation before the screed is poured.

or a renovation
There’s no need to spend time or money digging up floors with Nu‑Heat’s LoPro^® range of retrofit UFH. Both systems are simply laid directly on top of an existing floor and offer the lowest height build‑ups and the highest heat outputs on the market.

The LoPro^® solutions make UFH a realistic heating replacement for renovation projects. LoPro^®Max is available as a single room kit which is great for kitchens or conservatories.

For joisted floors
Nu‑Heat offers a range of UFH solutions for projects where there are joisted floors. Simply feed the heating tube through pre-notched or drilled joists and then push into the patented ClippaPlate^® fixing system to hold it securely in place and flush with the floor for effective heat transfer.
