Electric floor heating
The ultimate comfort for Australian homes
Electric floor heating is a popular choice for Australian homeowners. Unlike traditional heating methods, electric floor heating systems provide warmth from the ground up, creating an even distribution of heat that enhances comfort and energy efficiency. Here’s a closer look at how electric floor heating works and its many benefits.
Electric floor heating comes from the installation of thin, flexible heating cables beneath your flooring. These systems can be installed under various flooring types, including tile, laminate, wood, and carpet, or within your slab. Once in use, the system gently warms the floor, radiating heat to create a cosy and consistent room temperature.
Comfortable & even heating
One of the biggest advantages of electric floor heating is the consistent warmth it provides. Unlike traditional radiators or air-conditioning units, which can leave cold or hot spots, electric floor heating offers an even distribution of heat across the room. This creates a more comfortable and balanced indoor environment.
Silent operation
Many heating systems, such as ducted heating or space heaters, can be noisy. Electric floor heating is completely silent. This makes it an ideal solution for bedrooms, living rooms, and open-plan spaces where quiet is essential.
Easy installation & maintenance
Electric underfloor heating systems are easy to install (by professionals). They are low maintenance, and the lack of moving parts reduces the need for repairs or replacements. Additionally, many systems come with programmable thermostats, allowing you to control the temperature and schedule the heating to suit your needs.
Compatibility with renewable energy
As Australia electrifies, and more households adopt solar energy, electric floor heating is becoming the ideal partner for your renewable energy system. Using programmable thermostats and intelligent automation, your floor heating system can be optimised to harness your solar panels’ during the day, while keeping your home cosy throughout the night.
Enhanced indoor air quality
Since electric floor heating doesn’t rely on air circulation like forced-air systems, it helps maintain cleaner indoor air. This can be particularly beneficial for people with allergies or respiratory issues, as it reduces the spread of dust and allergens.
No more mould
As your homes ages, so does the chance of mould growing in your bathroom, Electric floor heating will prevent mould from growing as it can keep the room dry.
Ideal for Australian Homes
Electric floor heating is suited for Australian climates. Whether you’re in the cooler southern regions or experiencing the subtropical winters of Queensland, electric underfloor heating offers a versatile and effective solution to maintain comfortable indoor temperatures year-round.
