Frequently Asked Questions
Which is better — electric or wet underfloor heating?
Electric is cheaper to install and ideal for single rooms. Wet systems cost more upfront but are cheaper to run for whole-house heating.
Can underfloor heating be installed under existing floors?
Electric mats add only 3-5mm and work under most flooring. Wet systems need 50-75mm depth and usually require floor-level changes.
