Electric underfloor heating - any advice? - 17/08/2017 17:40
Hi all
It's been a while, and I hope everyone is well and in fine spirits.
I am seeking some advice / recommendations on electric underfloor heating.
We're about to have a kitchen extension built, the kitchen will be about 7m x 5m in the end, and this involves a new section house being 2m x 2m, our current kitchen is an 'L' shape and we are squaring it off. Cupboards will be on most walls, so actual walking space is around 6m x 3m.
We do have 1 large existing radiator that we shall replace and retain, and we have the ability to add one more radiator, that we shall probably do, but we are also thinking of electric underfloor heating to just take the cold edge off a tiled floor in the winter. But trying to research on the web, is like looking for a needle in a haystack.
We know it won't heat the room perfectly, but we aren't looking for the room to be fully heated, just a 'glow' on the floor.
We have concrete floors, so do not want to go to the expense of water filled heating, the cost would far out weigh anŷ benefit.
What I can't find, and am looking for, is a recommendation on makes, products, anyone tried and tested, any horror stories, etc.
So anyone got anything, thanks y'all...
