Professional Underfloor Heating Installation in Reading

Underfloor heating can be installed in most Reading properties, from period Victorian houses to modern developments. We offer both wet systems for new builds and major renovations, and electric systems for existing properties with minimal floor height changes.

Most modern boilers are compatible with underfloor heating systems. Wet systems operate at lower temperatures (35-45°C vs 60-80°C for radiators), which actually improves boiler efficiency. We'll assess your current system during survey and advise on any necessary modifications or upgrades.

Properly installed underfloor heating typically reduces energy costs by 15-30% compared to radiators due to lower operating temperatures and even heat distribution. The system's efficiency, combined with individual room controls, allows precise temperature management and reduced waste.

Most flooring types are compatible including tile, stone, engineered wood, laminate, and carpet. Natural stone and ceramic tiles provide the best heat transfer, while thick carpets may reduce efficiency. We'll advise on optimal flooring choices during our consultation.

Yes, we provide comprehensive manufacturer warranties on all components (typically 10-25 years) plus our workmanship guarantee. All installations comply with Building Regulations and manufacturer specifications, ensuring long-term reliability and performance.

Wet systems benefit from annual servicing including system flushing and component checks, similar to traditional heating systems.
