Underfloor Heating: Is it for me?
Underfloor heating has a range of benefits and VPS will be happy to guide you every step of the way.
Imagine having a home with better heat distribution, improved energy efficiency, slower heat loss and more space due to no more bulky traditional radiators.
Remember, UFH is very much suited to most floor types and the initial cost, while higher than the trusty radiator, longer-term you will save money.
UFH is also easy to install in new builds but retro-fitting is also an option.

How Does Underfloor Heating Work?
Underfloor heating is an efficient heating method which warms people and objects from the ground up. It can be up to 30% more efficient when compared to traditional radiators.
The two types of UFH are wet (hydronic) and electric. A wet UFH system carries hot water through pipes to distribute heat across the room. An electric system uses mats or loose cables, connected to your mains electricity supply.
The best solution for your home may vary depending on your project. Contact our knowledgeable staff to let us guide you through the process.
Radiant Heat
The entire floor surface is uniformly heated. Efficient distribution of heat ensures a consistent and comfortable level of warmth.
Convection Heat
Radiators heat specific areas within a space. This method can cause uneven temperatures throughout the room.
The Main Benefits of Underfloor Heating
Underfloor heating offers a range of benefits compared to other methods. You can find out more about the benefits and the main reasons to instal it in your home on our UFH Blog.
Underfloor heating removes cold spots in a room by warming the entire floor surface. This creates a warm living environment that feels even better on your feet.
Underfloor heating runs at a lower temperature than traditional methods. This is more energy efficient and can lead to savings and a reduced carbon footprint.
Installed beneath the floor, UFH allows greater use of space. Furniture can be placed against walls and there’s no need to huddle around a radiator for warmth.
Rooms/zones can be managed independently, allowing greater control in your home. This can lead to savings and the perfect environment in every room.
Underfloor heating can be paired with almost any floor covering. It is the perfect partner to keep tiles warm in winter and works well with laminate, wood, and carpets.
