Under Tile Warming
Excel can supply electric underfloor heating to suit all floor surfaces: Tile, Hardwood, Laminate, Carpet and Vinyl.
- Energy Efficiency – Rapid heatup giving user control using less energy as you are not heating the ceiling area
- Temperature control in each zone
- Cost Savings – Underfloor heating means no bulky radiators to make up valuable wall and floor space
- No Maintenance
- Safety- No hot surfaces for children or elderly users to be at risk.
The table shows the underfloor heating running cost in an average home. For these figures, we assumed an energy price of 11.61p/kWh and using the system for 6 months (182 days) on a 10mm Warmup Insulation Board. Avg. running cost after an initial heat-up period is 0.7836 p/m²/h. These tests were performed using Warmup heaters and this data is accurate for Warmup heaters only.
| ROOM TYPE | HEATED AREA | RUNNING TIME AM | RUNNING TIME PM | WINTER COST* |
| BATHROOM | 4m² | 2hrs | 1hrs | £22.75 |
| KITCHEN | 5m² | 1hrs | 2hrs | £27.81 |
| LOUNGE | 15m² | 0hrs | 3hrs | £78.19 |
* Assumptions: 11.61p/kWh – system on 6 months (182 days) per year. System installed on 10mm Warmup® Insulation Board. **Avr. running cost after initial heat-up period = 0.85p/m²/hr.
Running costs will always depend on the room size and the running time, as well as how well the room is insulated. The better the insulation, the better the heating system will perform for you.
In support of our EN442-2 Research Centre in Germany, we operate a number of Family Monitored Houses in addition to the BRE (Building Research Establishment) Renewable House. This initiative grew out of the need to better predict the future energy running costs of houses using Warmup underfloor heating systems. Information is gathered every few minutes from many tiny sensors. These sensors are strategically placed in each zone to compare floor, wire/water, and outside temperatures and often other readings like humidity and radiant temperature. This allows a detailed view of the amount of energy actually needed to create ideal living conditions.
