Control Options For Underfloor Heating Systems

For underfloor heating, there are many ways of controlling the system. Nearly any boiler can be used with underfloor heating. However, the more energy efficient system uses a condensing boiler. When using an underfloor heating system with a combination boiler, you must always make sure that the flow can be fitted with a secondary pump.

When properly insulated, underfloor heating systems are self-regulating, which also makes them extremely energy efficient. The heat output depends on the difference between the temperature of the floor surface and the open room. When there is a small difference between the two, the underfloor heating compensates accordingly.

For many underfloor heating systems, homeowners have installed individual room controls. Which permits the homeowner to set higher temperatures for rooms that are more frequently used, such as living rooms and rooms, which are seldom used, can be set at lower temperatures, thus saving on energy.

In most homes, the bathroom is the warmest room, this us usually because there is often a concentration of tubing under the bathroom floor. For the bathroom, it is easy to install a towel rail that can be connected to your underfloor heating system, hot water system, or electrics. Just think of how it will feel to step out of the shower or tub onto warm tile, and wrap a warm towel around yourself. With underfloor heating and a little foresight, this is possible.
