Underfloor Heating

Ground Source Heat Pumps | Greentech Renewable Solutions

🔥 Underfloor Heating

Comfort • Control • Hidden Efficiency

At Greentech Renewable Solutions Ltd, we supply and install energy-efficient Underfloor Heating (UFH) systems — a luxurious and low-profile heating solution that pairs perfectly with renewable technologies like heat pumps or solar thermal. It provides even, consistent warmth from the ground up and removes the need for bulky radiators.

💡 What Is Underfloor Heating?

Underfloor Heating uses a network of warm water pipes or electric cables laid beneath your flooring to deliver radiant heat. Unlike radiators that warm the air unevenly, UFH spreads heat gently and uniformly across the entire room — for superior comfort and lower energy use.

✅ Key Benefits

  • Low operating temperatures = ideal for heat pumps
  • Free up wall space — no radiators needed
  • Improved comfort and temperature control
  • Compatible with tile, wood, stone, vinyl and even carpet
  • Adds value to your property and enhances aesthetics

🏠 Ideal For

  • New builds or major renovations
  • Energy-efficient homes with low heat demand
  • Bathrooms, kitchens, open-plan spaces — or whole-home systems

🔧 Our Services Include

  • System design and heat-loss calculations
  • Wet (water-based) or electric UFH installation
  • Floor preparation, screeding, thermostats and zoning
  • Aftercare support and advice

📈 When Will I See a Return on My Investment?

Return depends on the system type, home size, and existing heating method. On average:

🕒 ROI in 7 to 10 years

Underfloor Heating reduces energy bills by using lower flow temperatures and heating more efficiently, especially when paired with a heat pump.

💷 How You Save:

  • Lower running costs than radiators when used with heat pumps
  • Zoned control reduces unnecessary heating
  • Long-term savings on maintenance and heating efficiency
🏡 Example: A family home using underfloor heating with an air source heat pump may save £300–£600/year versus a gas boiler + radiators setup.

💷 Underfloor Heating Costs

🔸 Water-Based (Wet) UFH:

  • £80 – £120 per m² (installed)
  • Ideal for full-house installations and renewable systems

🔸 Electric UFH:

  • £50 – £75 per m² (installed)
  • Best for small rooms or retrofitting

🛠️ Lifespan & Maintenance:

  • Water pipes: 50+ years
  • Electric cables: 20–30 years
  • Thermostats and controls: Replace every 10–15 years

📦 Optional Add-ons:

  • Smart thermostats for zoned control
  • Floor screeding and insulation layers

🛠️ How Long Does Installation Take?

⏳ 2 to 5 days (average room)

⏳ 1 to 2 weeks (whole-home systems in new builds)

  • 📐 Design & Survey: 1 day
  • 🧰 System Installation: 1–3 days
  • 🏗️ Screeding or Floor Covering: 1–2 days
  • 🔌 Setup & Controls: 1 day
💡 Tip: UFH works best with good insulation and can be used alongside radiators in hybrid systems.
