wet UFH downstairs Heated skirting boards upstairs try Thermaskirt in your local area. This is the solution in my home no difference in warm up time time however need to turn the thermostat down as you are heeating from all four sides of the room as opposed to one walll . Very effective and we have seeen our bills reduce!0

I'm not a fan of UFH... i believe a good wool rich underlay stops the cold air getting through and stops the warm air seeking through the carpet to the floor...
Make sure you buy yourself some good underfloor heating underlay.. i'd go for Roma Underlay which you can get from eBay0 -

we'll be replacing the heating system in our house and are considering underfloor heating (gas powered) throughout replacing the radiators completely.
It's a 5 bedroom house, 2 large reception rooms. Hallway and receptions rooms will have wooden flooring and bedreooms carpetted.
Our fear is it won't keep the house warm or take too long to warm up.
Would appreciate any comments or experiences you have had.
Thanks in advance.
