Heat loss calculations are the first step in the design of an underfloor heating system. It is also one of the most important aspects of the system. The heat loss calculations tell you how much heat a building requires. Every building has different build methods which include different materials, shape, size and even location. By closely examining these factors, and creating a detailed table of them allows us get an overall picture of your buildings thermal performance and heating requirements.

The following lists the required information to be able to produce accurate heat loss calculations:

• Detailed floor plans
• Elevations
• Construction details
• Location information

Once the heat loss calculations have been done, we will provide a room by room list showing the projected room and floor temperatures. The information displayed in this list, allows us to provide our temperature guarantees and lets you know that underfloor heating is suitable for your project. This is particularly important when you are working with an old or listed building, which may have a particularly high heat loss.

Robbens dedicated heat loss team, have successfully produced thousands of heat loss calculations for all of our underfloor heating systems. When you need to have a system designed, allow us to provide a free quote which you can have confidence in.
