Thermogroup Thermonet Underfloor Heating 150W/m² - Full Kit

One of the biggest misconceptions about electric underfloor heating is that it is expensive to run. However, electric underfloor heating in a medium sized bathroom costs less to run that an average takeaway coffee a week!

Due to the fact that hot air rises, underfloor heating is a very efficient way of heating your home. Underfloor heating provides a gently, comfortable radiant heat rather than circulation hot therefore the room is comfortable at a lower temperature than other heating methods.

Greater efficiency can also be achieved by including by:

• Including a layer of insulation
• Splitting the heating into different zones
• Using a programmable thermostat to only have the heating on when you need it

So how much will it actually cost me?

Unfortunately there is no straight answer for this. There is a number of factors that will influence the efficiency and the running costs of your underfloor heating. This includes:

• The set temperature
• The size and design of the room/home
• Level of insulation
• External temperatures
• Flooring products used
• Your electricity tariff
• Length of time the floor heating is on
• If there is any other heat sources in the room
