Welcome to the Heated Flooring section. This category showcases the innovative solutions to keep your floors warm and inviting, especially during the colder seasons. Let's dive into the types of products available, their practical applications, and guidance on how to choose the best fit for your needs.

Self Adhesive Heating Mat

The Self Adhesive Heating Mats are designed to provide a consistent and even heat distribution across the floor. Ideal for:

• Tiles: Especially beneficial under ceramic or stone tiles where coldness can be pronounced.
• Renovations: Perfect for retrofitting into existing homes due to its slim profile.
• Ease of Installation: The adhesive backing ensures a straightforward installation process.

Choosing the Right Mat: Ensure you measure your room accurately and select a mat size that will cover the most floor area without overlapping or being too cramped.

Underfloor Membrane Heating Cable

The Underfloor Membrane Heating Cable is a flexible solution:

• Versatile: Suitable for irregularly shaped rooms or areas where a heating mat might not be ideal.
• Custom Layouts: You have the freedom to lay out the cables in patterns that suit your room's unique shape.

• Multiple Sizes Available: This ensures you can find the right length for your specific project requirements.

   

Selecting The Right Product

Room Shape and Size:

• Self Adhesive Heating Mat: Best suited for rectangular or standard-shaped rooms. The mats come in fixed sizes and dimensions, so for spaces that are close to these standard sizes, the mat is an optimal choice.

• Underfloor Membrane Heating Cable: Ideal for rooms with irregular shapes or when you want to work around specific features or obstacles. The cables can be adjusted to fit any layout, ensuring every corner gets heated.

   

Installation:

• Self Adhesive Heating Mat: If you're looking for a quick and easy installation process, these mats are the way to go. The adhesive backing means you can simply stick them down in the desired area.

• Underfloor Membrane Heating Cable: Requires a more hands-on approach as you'll be laying out the cables yourself. It provides more flexibility but can be a bit more time-consuming.

   

Type of Flooring:

• Self Adhesive Heating Mat: Highly recommended for ceramic or stone tiles, which tend to feel colder underfoot.

• Underfloor Membrane Heating Cable: Works well under various flooring types, especially if the floor material is compatible with underfloor heating.

   

Renovation or New Build:

• Self Adhesive Heating Mat: Great for renovations as its slim profile means you won't need to make significant adjustments to the floor height.

• Underfloor Membrane Heating Cable: Can be used in both new builds and renovations. In new constructions, you might have more freedom to design the heating layout from scratch.

   

Budget:

• Both products will have varying costs, not just in terms of initial purchase but also in terms of installation (if you're hiring professionals). Always compare the total costs – product, installation, and running costs – to ensure you're making a budget-friendly choice.

   

Manufacturer's Guidelines:

• No matter which product you choose, always refer to the manufacturer's guidelines during both selection and installation. This ensures you get optimal performance and longevity from your heated flooring.
