About Underfloor Heating

Thermo-Floor underfloor heating systems provide heating where it is needed most, at floor level. The concept has been around for centuries, first used by the Romans who warmed air by an open fire which passed through voids below their dwellings. Today underfloor heating systems are far more advanced and are the 'next generation'.

How Does Underfloor Heating Work?

Thermo-Floor underfloor heating systems work by passing warm water through pipes laid within the floor structure. The heat from the pipe is transferred to the floor surface, this results in the whole floor surface being kept at the same warm temperature. Thermo-Floor underfloor water heating systems can be powered by any heat source, for example boilers, ground and air source heat pumps, wood chip burners and biomass boilers.
