Underfloor Heating

jozvaldo

I am looking to put some electric underfloor heating in my new conservatory and wondered if anybody had any recommendations.

I will be doing it myself and will have laminate on top of it.

thanks

We've been looking around for some too and a few people have recommended the Warmup products. Topps Tiles sell their stuff although I did find a good, cheap supplier on ebay too and I'll probably get it from there.

I have installed "Deviheat" cables in my conservatory last year. As it was a new built, I went for a thick cable looped on insulation boards and covered with 50mm concrete screed. If your floor is already concreted, they also do a thinner wire version that comes attached to a mat and fits right underneath your tiles. Both systems relatively easy to install. www.devi.com

We have deviheat too...installed by a flooring company, but seemed really easy to lay and no problems with it.

Hi
I have installed quite a bit of electric under floor heating and would advise using the mat type. Much quicker and easier. I get mine from the link below.......good prices and quick delivery.

We want to install underfloor electric heating in our kitchen but we are getting conflicting advice. Does it heat the room enough or just the floor?

we have it in our conservatory, therfore glass roof, 2/3rds windows all round.

Through the winter it's been plenty warm enough for us. You can tell the difference between the house and the conservatory heat-it certainly isn't toasty warm but is warm enough to be comfortable in just PJs in the morning. In winter, we keep the dial at 6, the max being 10.

So I would say it does heat the room enough...especially with so much glass in this room it does a good job.
