Warmup offers a wide range of products for vinyl underfloor heating. Electric underfloor heating is suitable under vinyl floors. The temperature of the heating system with vinyl should not exceed 81°F. Therefore, if you are considering radiant heating with vinyl planks as the sole source of heat, carry out a heat loss calculation first to ensure the heated floor will be providing you with sufficient amount of heat. The most suitable underfloor heating system to use with vinyl flooring is dependent on which kind of vinyl flooring you are using.

Floor heating for wooden floor finishes is increasingly popular amongst homeowners. Warmup systems have been extensively researched and developed for use with a wide variety of wooden floor options. The key with radiant-based heating of wood flooring is the wood's thermal conductivity; the thinner and denser the wood, the quicker the heat-up time and therefore, the more efficient the system. Using a Warmup Thermostat to control the underfloor heating system facilitates an optimum temperature output that never exceeds 81°F - warm enough to heat your home but not too hot that it may damage your wooden flooring.

Basements are often the last room in the home to be renovated and are frequently left to be simply unheated storage spaces or utility rooms. By installing radiant floor heating in a basement, you can maximize the potential of this overlooked space by turning it into a large and cozy family room or workspace. A floor heated basement can double your living space. Imagine coming home from a long day at work and going downstairs to your own home cinema or creating a fully-functional, comfortable home office.

Once primarily used in a purely industrial setting, polished concrete is now an increasingly popular flooring choice for home renovations and new-build projects across the world. Polished concrete flooring is hard-wearing and easy to clean whilst adding a sense of modernity and luxury to a space. Due to their high thermal-mass, concrete floors are ideal to be heated by an underfloor heating system. Concrete provides quick heat-up times and retains heat well, even storing the warmth produced by solar gain, making a heated polished concrete floor a great option to improve the comfort and warmth of your home.

With laminate floors, the key is to ensure thermal conductivity, which is best when using a more dense laminate. The thinner the flooring material, and the higher the density, the shorter the heat-up time and the more responsive the system will be. The most used radiant floor heating system for laminate floors is the Foil Heater. However, the best system for your project depends on the size of the room, floor height and many other factors. To help with deciding which system to choose, read our Buying Guide or contact us.

A good night's sleep is dependent on a comfortable environment in which to truly relax. Installing underfloor heating in your bedroom is a great way to enhance comfort to ultimately improve the quality of your sleep. The need for even heat distribution and a comfortable room temperature make underfloor heating the perfect choice for a bedroom, creating an ideal environment to recharge in after a long day. Underfloor heating utilities radiant heat to gently heat the room to the desired temperature from the floor up.

Warmup underfloor heating offers heat-up time in minutes rather than hours, avoiding overheating and wasting energy. Warmup's DCM-PRO System, Heating Mat and Foil electric floor heating systems use UL approved ultra-thin heating elements, to quickly yet gently heat the floor surface. The heating wire with fluoropolymer coatings is ultra-thin at 1/8 (3mm), and will not raise floor levels. The DCM-PRO System comes in a minimum heat output of 11W/sqft and its output is variable and determined by the spacing.

Warmup's systems are a result of over 25 years of experience and rigorous research and development. As a result, you can rest assured the best possible floor heating system in the market, with a Lifetime warranty. Radiant heating is compatible with almost all floor finishes. Pay attention to the thermal conductivity of the floor type when choosing the best flooring to go with your floor heating.

The bathroom was originally designed to be purely functional but it is now an important place to relax and unwind. Installing floor heating in the bathroom, or even in the shower, will add luxury when you want to pamper yourself and take the chill off tiles on a cold morning. This space is a personal sanctuary that sets the tone for both the beginning and end of your day. Having a floor heating system is also widely considered a key selling point, adding value to your home. Underfloor heating is increasingly popular in bathrooms and suitable for both new-builds and renovations.

As the heart of the home, our kitchens tend to be the most-used room in the house and need to be able to cater for entertaining, cooking and relaxing. Underfloor heating is ideal for use in kitchens as it provides an 'invisible' approach to home-heating, perfect for rooms with little-to-no wall space for baseboards. Warmup underfloor heating systems, whether used as primary or secondary heat sources, offer you unrivaled comfort in a cost-effective manner. Underfloor heating can be installed with almost all flooring types.

With the continuous investment in Research and Development, we are able to foresee and respond to upcoming industry trends and technological developments. This guarantees you fast access to the latest innovations when it comes to underfloor heating design, energy efficiency and reducing CO emissions.

Underfloor heating systems heat-up a room much faster than traditional systems and require less energy to do so. To make your heating even more efficient and to save even more money on your heating bills, we recommend you also install Warmup Insulation to work alongside the floor-heater. Underfloor insulation is important in reducing heat-loss and also rapidly improves the heat-up time of the floor heating system. Warmup insulation dramatically reduces heat-loss, keeping the warmth inside the room, saving you both energy usage and money.
