How Underfloor Heating Works
Most conventional heating systems use warm water, which is circulated through radiators in the heating system. This process is called convention, and this heating system simply heats the air in the room. This means that the floor is the coolest part of the room, with warm air rising to the ceiling; it also creates drafts and temperature fluctuations.
Traditional Heating (Convention) Underfloor Heaitng (Radiant Heating)
In comparison an underfloor heating system heats a room by radiant heating, which quietly and continuously warms the room by constantly circulating warm water through pipes located beneath the floor. This means that the air temperature is always highest at floor level and decreases steadily as it rises up. By using an underfloor heating system you are creating a very pleasant and comfortable environment

Advantages of Henco Underfloor Heating
Energy Source As underfloor heating system work very well with a low supply water temperature. This is possible due to a large radiant surface such as the floor surface.
Due to the low supply temperature, underfloor heating systems are perfect for combination with energy-efficient heating applications, such as heat pumps, solar panels, etc
Space-Saving With the application of an underfloor heating system, radiators are often unnecessary. Hygienic An underfloor heating system is also more hygienic than a conventional heating suystem with elements that may or may not be placed against the walls.
Dust collects in these elements (radiators, convectors, etc) that is kept ciruclating in the space by the rising air. This is not the case with underfloor heating.
Aesthetic It is obvious that a space looks better without the interference of heating elements Reduced Energy Consumption An underfloor heating system approaches the most ideal heat distrubution. Other heating systems are much less ideal in this regard.
The property of underfloor heating makes it possible to decrease the room temperature by 2 0C relative to other heating systems to produce the same comfort temperature.
Comfort An underfloor heating system provides a very pleasant heat that perfectly meets our human needs.
Once you have experienced this form of heat, you will be convincced that underfloor heating offers a higher level of comfort.
Self-Regulating Temperature Underfloor heating has a self-regulating effect with regard to the room temperature. This is due to the fact that the heat emission is deteremined directly by the difference between the toom temperature on the one hand and the floor temperature on the other.

Grants Currently Available
The low temperature operating temperatures of underfloor heating systems make it ideal to combine with heat pumps.
In Northern Ireland, Heat pumps qualify as a Renewable heat source under the Renewable Heat Inventive (RHI) scheme.
This means that the RHI will pay you to heat your home using underfloor heating in conjunction with a heat pump.
