Anyone had this done?
Thinking about how to make the bathroom a bit warmer with winter around the corner.
Whats the best most economical way ? Electric or water pipes?

It`s been recently tiled so does it raise the floor level much, thinking about door and fittings already in there?

    Don't put in underfloor heating. Takes ages to heat up, and not very effective.

    Try a heated towel rail. (Unless your bathroom is very big) They can take the edge off the cold. Electric or connect to central heating.

    Only my opinion......
    Never argue with an idiot. They bring you down to their level and beat you with experience.
  • Hi, we put underfloor heating in our bathroom as being a victorian house its always freezing. Although its lovely to walk on, it takes ages to heat up, and we were a bit stunned when we got our electricity bill :cry:

    My husband bought a cheap heater to attach to the wall that blows air out, and now we put that on when its cold for 10 minutes before bathtime, and that has done more to heat the bathroom, in less time and for less money.
