LET’S SAVE YOU MONEY — UNDERFLOOR HEATING
The energy price cap rose by around £693 in April 2022, which has left many households across the UK feeling the pinch. Fortunately, warm spring and summer temperatures followed, but another increase of around 32% is predicted in October.
If you’re looking for a way to save money on central heating, we’ve got a solution for you. You might be surprised to learn that you can save money with underfloor heating compared to traditional central heating systems.
IMPROVED ENERGY EFFICIENCY WITH UNDERFLOOR HEATING
When you use your central heating, most radiators will need to reach temperatures of around 65-75 degrees Celsius in autumn and winter to properly heat your home. However, underfloor heating only needs to reach around 29 degrees Celsius to operate efficiently and provide warmth.
What’s more, one of the most common places to lose heat is through your feet, so you’re being warmed in a much more efficient way. Radiators work by heating the air and circulating it, so you’ll usually experience colder patches of air within your home. Underfloor heating, on the other hand, heats air evenly throughout your home.
Of course, this comes with benefits to your heating bills too. Since it only requires around 29 degrees to work effectively, your underfloor heating will require less power than a traditional system using radiators. This means smaller energy bills during the cooler months.
THE BENEFITS OF EPWARMFLOOR UNDERFLOOR HEATING
The EPWarmfloor system has been designed to be as cost-effective as possible. In each section, you have an individual thermostat that can self-adjust when one area becomes too warm. As a result, you’ll end up with a more consistent temperature throughout your home while avoiding unnecessary power usage.
What’s more, a night set-back feature controls your heating while you’re asleep, reducing the temperature by up to 5 degrees during the night. These settings can be adjusted and will help to save your energy usage while you’re asleep.
The EP Warmfloor system also comes with child safety features that lock thermostat controls so that they can’t be tampered with. You’re also safe against frost in winter; a frost safety feature automatically turns on your heating if the temperature falls below 5 degrees Celsius.
