Underfloor heating is becoming increasingly popular for its sleek modern design. It may seem luxurious, but it’s actually a cost-effective solution that heads your commercial space efficiently without the need for radiators that take up space.
If you’re looking for an efficient way to maximise heating coverage, BBIS Heating can provide underfloor heating systems for any size of commercial property.
Underfloor heating is a big project that is best installed in major renovations where a subfloor has been taken up or still needs to be installed. At BBIS Heating, we’re experienced in installing underfloor heating in commercial buildings. Call us on 0800 2289800 for a free survey or fill in our form below.
Essendon Country Club
We installed underfloor heating for Essendon Country Club’s clubhouse extension. Supplied by 700 metres of pipes buried under a concrete screed, customers at the club now enjoy consistent, evenly distributed heating and can always find a seat thanks to the increase in space because there are no radiators.
Water-based, or ‘wet’ underfloor heating (UFH), is the most efficient type. With this type of UFH, heated water is gently pumped through pipe circuits which are often installed within a layer of concrete screed.
Typically, wet UFH systems cost 60% less to run than electric UFH systems due to being able to operate at lower temperatures. Another advantage to wet UFH is that is can run on many types of heat sources, including gas, hydrogen or heat pumps, future-proofing your system as we move to using renewable energy.
The best floor to use with underfloor heating is stone or tile because they are good heat conductors, meaning that they will warm the room up more quickly. Options like luxury vinyl tile (LVT) and engineered wood are also worth considering, but offer a slightly lower heat output than stone or tile.
Yes, it’s cheaper and therefore more efficient to keep underfloor heating on all day. However, you can still increase and decrease the temperature throughout the day based on your needs. For example, if you’re based in an office, you may only want to set the thermostat to 21°C between 8am-6pm, but set it to 14°C outside of these hours.
