Do you want to heat your home in an efficient and comfortable way? Consider underfloor heating as a luxurious and energy-efficient option. Here are a few tips and inspiring ideas to get you started, with support from TotalBouw:
- Choose the Right Type of Underfloor Heating: There are several types of underfloor heating systems available, including electric underfloor heating and water-based underfloor heating. Electrical systems are easier to install and can be used for specific spaces, while waterborne systems are more efficient for heating entire homes. TotalBouw can help you choose the right type of underfloor heating for your needs.
- Take advantage of solar heating: If you use water-based underfloor heating, consider installing solar collectors to harness free heat from the sun. Solar energy can be used to heat water that then circulates through the underfloor heating system, allowing you to reduce energy costs. TotalBouw can help integrate solar energy solutions with underfloor heating.
- Combine Underfloor Heating with Radiators: Underfloor heating can be combined with traditional radiators for an efficient and flexible heating system. Underfloor heating ensures even heat distribution across the floor, while radiators can quickly provide heat when needed. TotalBouw can help you design a hybrid heating system that meets your heating needs.
- Choose Suitable Flooring Materials: When installing underfloor heating, it is important to choose suitable flooring materials that conduct heat well and can withstand temperature changes. Ceramic tiles, natural stone, and concrete are excellent choices for floors with underfloor heating. TotalBouw can advise you on suitable flooring materials for underfloor heating.
- Zone Control for Optimal Comfort: Consider installing underfloor heating zone control to control the temperature in different rooms individually. This allows you to adjust the heat output to the needs of each room and save energy by heating unused rooms less. TotalBouw can help implement zone control systems for underfloor heating.
