Underfloor Heating costs more than standard radiator systems, is it a good option?
There is no short answer to this as every situation is different. For many of the new renewable or green technologies to operate at an efficient level, underfloor heating is preferred. This is because underfloor heating operates at lower temperatures; units like ground and air source heat pumps operate at lower working temperatures so underfloor heating is the ideal solution. Underfloor heating is also known to increase the value and salability of your home as homeowners see it as a very desirable option. Quite often people will choose underfloor heating on the ground floor and have radiators upstairs. To lay the pipes on the ground floor within the screed is always cheaper than running them for the 1st floor.
