Warm your home from the ground up with Hydronic Underfloor Heating
What is Hydronic Underfloor Heating?
Hydronic underfloor heating is the ultimate solution for whole-home heating that's both comfortable and efficient. Unlike traditional air heating systems, hydronic underfloor heating radiates warmth from the ground up, enveloping your entire home in a cozy, even heat.
Using hot water to warm your floors, hydronic underfloor heating is four times more cost-effective than electric underfloor heating, making it an affordable option for homeowners looking to save money on their heating bills.
The process is simple
During construction, pipes are laid into the floor before the concrete is poured. At the end of construction, water is circulated through the pipes and heated by an air-to-water heat pump, which transfers the heat to the concrete.
The result is a warm, comfortable and energy-efficient home.
Choosing air-to-water heat pumps as your heat source
When it comes to powering your hydronic underfloor heating, air-to-water heat pumps are the most popular choice as a sustainable heat source. These systems offer a cost-effective and eco-friendly solution for heating your home.
By using an air-to-water heat pump, many of our clients find that they are using only a quarter of their normal electric underfloor heating costs. If you want to maximise your savings, you could also consider using solar PV or night rates.
At Warmth NZ, we only supply SPRSUN heat pumps that feature top brand components like Panasonic, Carel and Mitsubishi. Using an air-to-water heat pump is by far the best option for heating your new home, as all other heat sources such as diesel, gas, wood, or wood pellets, tend to come with various problems. They can be inconvenient, expensive to install, costly to run, and environmentally unfriendly.
