Installing an Underfloor Heating System during a Project
As discussed, a common myth surrounding underfloor heating is that it is very difficult to install and needs to be installed by a heating professional. This is not the case with an underfloor heating system as these can be installed by DIY enthusiasts and heating professionals alike. Although underfloor heating can be installed by DIY installers, it’s highly important that an underfloor heating system is installed correctly so that there are no issues later down the line. Hydronic underfloor heating systems require little to no maintenance after the system has been installed. If something goes wrong or the installation is not carried out correctly – you will not want to have to dig up the system again to make repairs so if you are unsure about the installation process – it’s always better to seek the assistance of trained heating professionals.
Hydronic underfloor heating is often installed along with liquid floor screed as this type of screed increases the efficiency of the heating system – especially when compared to other seeds such as cement-based screed. This often means that underfloor heating is often installed in new build properties as it is easy to integrate the installation of the system alongside other work that is being carried out such as other parts of the construction of the property. Liquid floor screed is also used because you are able to walk on liquid floor screed 24 to 48 hours after the screeding has been laid which again benefits those who need to carry out the project to a strict schedule.
Although new build homes are seeing a huge shift in adopting underfloor heating compared to other traditional heating systems – it is also simple to install underfloor heating into a historic property or premises. Using liquid floor screed can also be used to completely change a floor space and with the huge amount of finishes available – this can be perfect for a redesign project!
